Unrequested contract renewal.

Hi

I've been with VM for year and been out of contract for years too. I was just browsing the website to see what offers there were and suddenly an email arrives with my new contract documents. I never agreed to renew and certainly not at the price stated. Surely they cant make me renew? Do I still have 14 days to cancel this?

Thanks

  • Yes you have 14 days to cancel. Link below. You are not the first to experience this trigger happy behaviour from VM recently.

      Thanks

      But just to clarify, I don't want to necessarily cancel right now. I might be about to move house so don't want to be tied in to a new contract. Just want things to stay as they are at the moment.

    Phone first thing tomorrow. Take the 'thinking of  leaving us' option, and say you will cancel unless they can give you a better offer. Play it hard.
