I took a mobile phone contract out for my ex boyfriends mum as I was only having it in my name for 2 months and then it was getting swapped. She was always going over her phone bill then that would mean I would have to keep the money out of my bank account so I didn't lose money. The phone was always paid late as she was going over and could not afford to pay it all off, The phone had been switched off about 2 months ago because the mother had run up a £100 bill which she could not afford, Therefore leaving me to have to pay. Recently She run up a phone bill of £101 so I had the phone turned off but offered to put it back on as soon as she paid what she owed, She refuses to pay what is owed and now I have had a letter saying I owe £300 within the next 10 days.
Even though the phone is in my name but I have not had the phone since day 1 is there anything that can be done? I don't mind paying £27 a month after its all paid off but is there anyway that the mother could pay as she was the one who run up the bills and owned the phone?
