Mobile Broadband account cancelled but billed full month.

Hi,

My Mobile Broadband contract is due to end on 3rd December. I called on the 3rd November to cancel and this was confirmed as done. Today I checked my bill and saw that I had been billed a full months line rental until 24th December. I spoke to someone today who has told me that on the 3rd December my bill will automatically update and a new bill issued and my direct debit amended accordingly.

 

I find this difficult to believe as the direct debit is due 4th December. I did ask her how much I would actually be billed as I was working out my budgeting for the month. She gave me a total that only included the 2 mobile numbers I have. When I asked about the line rental for the mobile broadband account from 24th Nov - 3rd Dec she said if I didn't use it there would be no charge. This definitely doesn't appear correct. I cannot imagine for one minute Vodafone being so generous. 

 

At the end of the call she seemed a bit unsure and was very keen to cancel my direct debit "just to make sure I'm happy". I said no to this as I don't want to risk any arguments over late payment. 

 

Could someone confirm that your rep was correct in what she said and I will only receive a bill for 2 mobile contracts or confirm a billing error and if so correct it.

 

Many thanks,

 

Sean

Sounds like your bills are generated on the 24th of each month. That being the case, your bill generated on 24th December will include a REFUND of the unused Line Rental from 4th December through to 24th. Hope this helps!!

Thanks for your help. That would make sense. Its a shame the Vodafone billing department couldn't give me that answer. 

It isn't good when the people tasked to help are no help.

 

Appreciate the answer.
