1 edit | Tough I'm sorry, but if you sign a contract that requires you pay a fee if you terminate your contract before the agreed upon time, then you should abide by that contact. If not, pick another carrier.
Problem is, almost every carrier has the provision.
I hope things change. |

An illegal contract is null and void the moment it's signed.
Example:
You enter into a contract with me to "dispose" of your 2007 Isuzu Honcho because you can no longer make the payments. You pay me with a crate of Valencia oranges and a gross of "Magnum" condoms for this service. I take receipt of your citrus and jimmy hats as payment for service and never provide said service (hey, with all that orangy goodness and protected McLovin', who would?).
You turn around and decide to sure me in small claims court for me not providing the service. You can't. It's an illegal contract from the start.
I know it's an exaggerated example, but I wanted to somehow work citrus fruit, mention of the publication "Honcho" and a box of rubbers into one of my posts some day.
I'm just glad that dream came true......

Yeah, and when am I going to hear you mention the companies never abide by their OWN fucking contracts in the first place?

So if they contract say left handed people aren't allow to use their service that's ok because it's in the contract? there are some things that shouldn't be allowed in contracts. |

Good on the People...right
Now these fuckers are going to cause me to pay $250 for a new phone, rather than getting a free phone every 2 years.
Think before you reply. |
