  • Phones 4 U, theiving bleeders

    just checked through my statements online and noticed an odd DD for a tenner, turns out when i got a new phone from the above mentioned firm back in may, they added a mobile insurance policy, cheeky buggers had slipped the form in with the rest of the bumph i had to sign when i started the new contract AFTER i told them i didn't need it! Grrrrrr... Apparently this happens quite a bit with this firm, and i'm having some grief now trying to get my money back. Beware, if you do end up in one of their shops, double check what you're signing. Better still, don't use them?

      I got my iPhone from them and even though I ticked the box for no emails my inbox has mysteriously developed an appetite for spam junk of all sorts since then. I have given up unsubscribing to these mails as it seems to make no difference and every month they seem to multiply bloody annoying and seems no proof that my details have been used against my wishes ......r soles

        i would have gone direct to 02 but i had to upgrade, my old phone had 2 months left on a 24 month contract when it gave up the ghost, 02 didn't want to help much, it was either buy a new handset on PAYG and swap sims or deal with the wide boys @ P4U, wish i'd just hung on for 2 months, i'm £50 lighter now, i could have bought a cheap handset for less.

          Cancel their direct debit and let them sing for their money.

            done and dusted as soon as i noticed, i rang the bank to find out more info on the originator, sussed what had happened, checked paper work to see if i could at least claim back under the DD guarantee but low and behold there was the insurance form with my sig on it, oops!
            Just be careful peeps, some companies have very little integrity...

              I found out recently that even if you cancel the DD they can set it up again without issue and keep doing so! Apparently its far simpler to set up DD as you dont need the signature anymore...
