    well then your contract is until next november so multply your bill by 6 and thats what you have to pay or maybe they just charge 130euro like they do with prepay

    You basically can't get out of the contract at all:

    I would suggest you do the following if you're really desperate:

    Downgrade your price plan one step at a time month by month until you're on the €19 per month which is as low as you can go

    Then, you'll have to pay them €19 for each month left on the contract!

    you can only downgrade price plan 1 step per month.

    So for example if you're on the €49
    you'll have to step back to the €29
    then the €19


    E.g. in my case it would cost me nearly €200 ish to get out of the contract with a downgrade!!!

    I'm seriously thinking of doing it. They're THAT much hassle!

    If they have not been able to supply a service to you, e.g. if there have been issues that they have not been able to solve that should be working, there may be grounds to terminate the contract without penalty.

    i had to buy my way out of 3 and it cost me a good few whackers. I think I was on the 19 euro tariff (not sure about this) but Its a pain in the ass paying the lump sum for a service your not using anymore.

    I am emailing you about my data 3000 bill for april, 3 are looking for €1,516.86 for the bill which is an obscene amount and which is a mistake, i still have not received any further calls on the matter or a new bill for that month, I checked my current spending recently and it said mount to pay €0.00,
    but a few days later it went back to €1,516e......


    I have cancelled my deirect debits as i can no longer trust 3 and they way business is carried out, also customer service is brutal, i have given up on calling 3 as i was unable to get and clear answers to tell me where the total other charges of €1,639.30 came from in my april bill.

    I will pay €39.99 by bank transfer to cover the april fee tomorrow, i know of several people who also are appalled at the service they are getting from 3.
