Been Conned! or mislead

Some of you may say that i/we were stupid for signing it but...(dont say it).

Basically started uni the other day in a shared house. Second day this NTL sales guy comes over, talking fast like some car sales man. He lead us to believe that if we signed the application we would get a free trial and could change our minds at any time before installation and during the trial period. We thought this was fair enough, never planning on keeping the service becuase we are poor.

Anyway i stupidly signed it while he was blasting our ears with crap. Streight afterwards we looked at it and he has sneekily ticked the 123 phone package and given us (ME! under my name!) a 12 MONTH contract I KNOW I KNOW i was stupid for signing but he told us we were not getting the phone. The problem i am now worried about is the we don't own the line, it is owned my the uni and only takes incoming calls. Does this now mean NTL can just take this line? If so im in trouble

On the form we sent off the little slip which is the cancellation, but will this work as they will probably get this before that gentleman gives the form to NTL?

I just dont need this to worry about right now with my first week at uni. Any ideas guys? Can i give any of you who work here my address and you make sure it is cancelled?

The guy also told us that the contract only starts from installation and we can tell the engineer to go away and that would be that? I believed him at the time but i think its complete and utter lies.

..I thought NTL was alright until now
