Everything is getting more expensive and money isn’t worth as much as it used to be. That’s why it’s particularly important nowadays that you avoid unnecessarily high costs, even if it’s much cheaper. Many of you are reminded of notice periods for this reason. Terminating contracts will also soon become much easier.
Fear of missing the notice period is great
Anyone who concludes a contract for a certain period of time should regularly compare the conditions with the market. According to a study by the Aboalarm consumer portal 40 percent of Germans regularly miss their notice period and then have to pay too much for many months. Aboalarm offers a service with which you can be reminded of the notice period and the service is used by over two million people. First and foremost, they were reminded of the termination at Vodafone, o2 and Sky.
So if you don’t want to have unnecessarily high costs because your contract has been extended unnecessarily, then you should enter an appointment in the calendar or use services such as reminders of notice periods. Since March 1, 2022, contracts have also only been extended by one month if the minimum contract term has expired. On July 1, 2022, providers must also provide a cancellation button. This means that you can cancel your online contracts with just the push of a button.
When you sign a new contract, you should do the math carefully:
Keep an eye on contracts and save a lot of money
Especially now it is extremely important that you do not miss a deadline for contracts and thus pay unnecessarily. Contracts with mobile phones can be easily canceled and much cheaper offers can be found. You can take the phone number with you and the costs for this have recently been significantly reduced. But you can also save a lot of money with insurance and many other services if you look at offers from other providers or use comparison portals. Since every euro counts now, you should take your time and not give money away.
