What about if you have a Debt Relief Order and your phone cintract is included in your Debt Relief Order what happens then?

[@won-derful]

And yet none of things happens because doing so would lead into more legal trouble for the company because of neglectful the customer service is per company keep your contract

[@Fatpig-fq3vb]

Why would they bankrupt you that would zero the chances of ever getting paid ?

[@revolveswayyy]

Good lord, thats alot just for not paying a contract.

[@kaaysydii]

if my phone contact is cancelled a couple months into it what will happen will the phone still work? can i just get a new sim card? or eventually will the phone stop working altogether

[@MoneyNerd]

Hi @kaaysydii! It's not our area of expertise, but if your contract has ended, there are pay-as-you-go or SIM-only plan options you can try. I'd suggest looking through your phone service provider's official website to learn more. You can also contact www.citizensadvice.org.uk/ to speak with a trained adviser.

[@kaaysydii]

[@thegrinchCAPO]

If I don’t pay my phone bill but I’m living with my parents and don’t acc own anything what will happen?

[@MoneyNerd]

Hi @thegrinchCAPO! assuming the contract is under your name, late or non-payments can affect your credit score long-term. Your service may get disconnected as well. This article can provide more information: moneynerd.co.uk/consequences-not-paying-phone-contract/

My gf is the US told me she was gonna buy her phone bill ever since then if I tried to call her the call won’t connect 😊

[@dpshadows8848]

My contract ended and they still making me pay 2 months more

[@MoneyNerd]

Hi DP! there could be several reasons why they're doing this, including if you were in arrears for two months or depending on their terms and conditions. The best way to understand is to contact them directly.

There's no God but Allah and Prophet Muhammad is his messenger ☝🏻☪️🇵🇸🇬🇧 Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book(Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
