18 Aug 2017, 09:06And there we go... No reply for almost a week now... You guys don't give a **** at all. I will not pay my outstanding money to you and it looks like once you have us on your system you keep on harassing us till you get your way!!! It also appears that you do not allow us to cancel with you as well which I believe is against the consumer act if I'm not mistaken. See the consumer act listed below and what it says about cancellation as well:
