[QUOTE="stiofansisland, post: 955138, member: 131687"] Ok a bit of a result.. I phoned Ofcom (UK The independent regulator and competition authority for the UK communications industries) The advised me that they had to honor the contract or i can get out of the contract scot free, They gave me a special executive office complaints department number which only deals with you if u have a ofcom referance number. The executive office totaly understood the problem and simply asked me to scan and email them the contract so they could confirm the situation.. 3 hours later they phoned me back and they had sorted it out... Now i have the teathering working on the iphone and it is testing and working :) The only problem was that they are under contract by apple not to offer any discounts on the iphone and i was told that apple have certian access to the accounts to be able to remove any applied discounts on iphone tarrifs, so the teathering discount would be removed every month, she said i had 2 options, 1. she could send me a cheque for £120 to cover the 2 years teathering 2. i could phone up on the 29th of every month to get the £5 discount applied i went for option 2 as i would jsut spend the £120 on somehting else lol so now i use my handy iphone calinder to remind me to call her on the 29th of every month :) Thanks very much to Kevriano for your help and advice, muchly appriciated :) [/QUOTE]
