“DON'T LISTEN TO THEM”

Written on: 26/06/2012

I have finally got away from Unicom, but it needed a little help.

I did not know until a friend told me Unicom had put up my prices (and everyone else's) without my consent, and the only thing I have to do to move away is tell them I am leaving and do not phone me again. They did all the usual for nearly 12 days solid, calls every day, threats every day and towards the end it got worse, much worse 27 calls in one day and even told my Son what they would do to me. But like any rash you have to go through the worst bits to get over it.

Since leaving Unicom a week ago, I have not received one more call, only their stupid threatening letters, but i will stand my ground. they put up my prices and under clause 8.1(d) I will happily see them in Court. My friend told me they threatened Court for about 9 months then gave up. They are a crafty, bully boy Company who like all bullies when slapped back, move on to a new victim.

If I were you, stand your ground for 14 days, tell them every time they ring I am leaving. And eventually you will be free. Good luck to you all.

Well done you !!!
Shame on them for talking to your son this way...although this tactic is common with them.
You will get a "court injunction" letter at some point....however if it is not stamped with an official stamp on it, then it is likely (although cannot guarantee) to be a letter from just themselves.
This is also another known tactic.

Personally, I would write to them, their compliance department as I did(recorded post) and clearly state your position, why you are leaving, how disgusted you are at the threats to your son and at 27 calls in a day. Then state the clause 8.1(d)...in the event that they breached their agreement with you, then the contract becomes null and void.
Then just sit back and wait.
With me, I wrote that I insist on written correspondance as the threatening calls were too stressful...then after some weeks, I got a freedom letter, without penalty.

Good luck and good on you for standing your ground.
