Cancellation of Adsl

<p>I am moving to a new premmises that does not have any telkom lines or exhange near so there is no reason for me to keep paying for my adsl line.</p> <p> </p> <p>Upon request to cancel the line and dsl service, I was told I need to give 30 days notice( I need to pay the line even though I am not staying in the home anymore)</p> <p> </p> <p>How do you expect me to pay you for a service I no longer need and or use. I am a month to month customer and did not sign any contract or clause that stated a 30 day notice period.</p> <p> </p> <p>Please get your facts together.</p> <p> </p> <p>If I want to cancel my dstv or incurance I just settle the account and the stop it.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

It has been almost a month since I posted on hellopeter. But still no result.

A lady spoke to me but I still recieved a invoice for the month.

I refuse to pay you can take me to court.
