So two years ago I took upgraded my phone contract to get the next iPhone X fast forward 6 months and someone had stolen/misplaced my phone and I’ve never been able to retrieve it.
So straight away i rang 3 and asked to claim on my insurance (which I took out on the phone when I bought it over the phone) they then came back to me and said it wasn’t insured. I had no evidence that this was true I’ve never had any receipts any proof of purchase apart from payments coming out of my account for the insurance. I demanded something to be done about it and they said they can either give me a cr*p phone or terminate the contract as I demanded the same phone I received. I ended having a phone call with a women who said I could use the termination package to get out of my contract and no longer pay it. Which I did.
a week or so later I had a phone call saying I owe money for the phone even though they’ve just told me I no longer needed to pay it and the person on the phone said oh yeah you shouldn’t I’ll look into it for you. Again, a week or so later another phone call saying no you’re now liable for this payment by this time I had already got a new contract out with another provider.
After months of refusal and asking to give me the call history to prove this and that they’ve basically went against there word surely this isn’t right/fair.
They only just sold the debt to Lowell which then looked into again after I explained and basically just said since I was told on the phone I’m still liable even with no black and white proof as why would I purchase a brand new phone and not get it fully covered. I said I still refuse to pay and they’ve put me down as refusing payment. Am I in the right here or am I actually liable through this little crack there trying to get money out of me for. I would go to court if it meant I would have a chance of winning it.. I asked 3 for the call history said theyd give me the call logs. They never. I’ve never thought of chasing it up but now I feel the balls rolling again
Any help?
