My roommate at the time opened an account for me under the agreement I pay the bill. However for several reasons it turned out I/we could not keep service..
- I made plans to move and get a place of my own. We were both going to be forced into moving as anyone in mental health/housing programs needed to move due to someone purchasing the apartment complexes and renovations.
- The area I moved to does not have Fios, Dsl, Cable, Wireless etc.. and my roommate did not have a need for the service nor would he be able to keep it either way.
- No money since I was moving away and needed money towards moving and stopped paying on the account.
When I we signed up for service we were not requested to physically sign anything nor were there any terms I had to agree to before the service could be used. As soon as service was activated it could be used without ever seeing a ToS page or clicking anything to agree to a contract or ToS.
I've gone round and round on the Direct forum with no resolution. But I'm thinking of trying again after realizing that I never signed a contract or agreed to terms and thought at the time the service was for month to month. It's difficult to do anything because the service is in my former roommates name and I don't really have contact with him anymore except seeing him once in a great while at the place he works. Plus his sister is very controlling of him and I'm afraid his sister found out about the bill, he went behind her back to open the account and kept it secret from here. So if that's the case I think he might be avoiding me because his sister found out and chewed his head off (not literally ofc) because of that.
I was the one who was responsible for the account such as payment and technical issues where calls to support were required, he had nothing to do with the account past supplying his name and ssn to get service.
