DSL Contract Cancellation (after leaving Germany)

I've seen on many other forums here, foreign residents using Telefonika's telephone customer service have been mistreated. I seem to be the latest victim.

Today marks 5 months since I left Erlangen, Germany. I did not meet the 4 week requirement to cancel my DSL contract in time before leaving (I accept this was wrong and I should have been more prepared). However, I have attempted to contact the relevant department of Telefonika to cancel my contract numerous times for company representative to be unfair, unprofessional and completely rude by hanging up on me and returning my query with sarcasm.

I connected with customer service numerous times for the company's representative to hear my foreign (German speaking) accent and hung up the phone in 90% of instances. All other calls were returned with a disruptive, rude attitude with the representative claiming that they "could not help" me.

I have communicated with the department via post, sending the "relevant" cancellation form that I found in the depths of O2's website. I received confirmation that my contract had been cancelled however, I have been charge €50 for every month since this "cancellation" - more than triple the rate I was paying while using the service.


Could somebody please help resolve this matter of urgency?

Hello Max,
I had a look into this.
You recieved he last invoice regarding the DSL contract itself on the 18th of October. The invoice from November (and December since the banking institute canceled the withdrawel) solely consists of a compensation for the DSL router that so it seems has not been sent back to us.
The DSL contract itself is already deactivated since the end of September.
Did you send back the DSL router to us using the DSL Retourenportal?
Regards,
Lars

Lars,

I didn’t return the router, no. I wasn't notified that I was required to do so. However, over the last week, I’ve attempted to make contact with the occupant of my previous residence. This hasn’t been successful for reasons out of my control, there has been no reply or connection made by phone.

In this case, is it be possible for the ownership of the router to be exchanged to the occupant at my previous address? Currently, I have no influence in physically delivering the router. Is there an alternative solution that you can advise for the matter?

Regards
Max
