I’ve been trying for a month to cancel my O2 contract because the salesperson who spoke with me on the phone lied and gave me false information (in Arabic) since my German is not good. I tried to cancel it using the 14 days cancelation policy when I received the SIM card via post.
As I don’t speak german, I managed to get a German friend of mine to call and request the cancelation of the contract, they said it’s possible. I only have to send a cancelation form via email to widerruf@cc.o2online.de, which I did.
I also received an email asking for authorization for payments for the new SIM card, I didn’t give any authorization. Yet, today they charged me still for the monthly payment of the new SIM card. I already have an old contract running with O2 and I think they used my bank information to charge the amount, but I don’t think this is legal given that I didn’t give consent and also why is the contract not canceled still? What’s taking them so long? And why was I charged today even though I didn’t use the card at all?
I don’t even think the way this contract was made (via phone, in Arabic, with false information) is legal to be honest. It feels like a scam.
Please could someone inform me how to cancel my contract!
