Some law help please :)

I was in the same position with BT a few weeks back. I changed my existing service and tied myself into a new minimum term contract, I decided a few days later I did not want to be tied in again. I called and they told me as I was in the first 30 days of the change they would cancel under the DSR T&C's
 
No it's not, as their not purchasing a new service, their ammending an existing one.

What was the resolution anyway?

The resolution was that because my mum was unhappy (she wasnt, but easier to amend if she seems that way ;)), we would keep the 8mb line speed, but we are not on a contract.

Sky Broadband here we come...

Result! :D
 
Are you sure BT has an over-18 policy? Because legally theres no age limit for entering into a contract. Otherwise anyone under 18 could never buy anything from a shop.

You cant sign a contract though if your under 18 can you?

Also, Im not the account holder. It shouldve been made by the account holder.

You can ring up and give my name and 1st line of my address and change my package if you like...scary thought...
 
Of course you can, although theres an exception for very young children and the mentally handicapped or disabled. I won't bore you with the basics of capacity in contract law.
