Contract cancellation due to moving abroad
vor 3 Jahren
Hello, I moved to Germany 2 years ago with 2-year of working contract. I got myslef a phone number with a 2-year contract. The time when I got my contract responsible person told me that whenever I get my de-registration paper, I can easily cancel my contract. I do not speak German so I believed that they explained me. Today I went to same store to cancel my contract as I am permanently leaving Germany this Friday and just got my de-registration paper (PS: earliest you can get it 7 days before you leave - that’s the rule). They told me this is not an issue and immediate cancellation can be done via Internet. So, I went to Telekom website with special notice of moving to abroad. It says only possible after 3 MONTHS! This is non-sense. I am requested a proof of leaving the country which I can get only 7 days before I leave and at the same time they say I need to pay 3 more months of my bill. This is unfair. Then you can just tell people de-register no matter what is the excuse. I am leaving and not coming back. I have an official letter. And nobody is helping unbelievable. I am calling the hotline continuously saying English and cannot find anybody to speak. I requested a colleage to call and even the person on the phone could not believe for moving abroad the system asks for 3-month notice. You cannot have the proof before 3 months!!!!! How this can happen???

your contract will be cancelled on the 31st of December 2021.
You will be paying the outstanding fees though.
Kind regards

3 months notice is the rule according to Telekommunikationsgesetz TKG (telecommunications bill). This is the same for all providers and is codified in law.

Read §46 TKG
three month is correct

it is actually possible to terminate the contract directly when moving abroad
there is a big difference between landline and mobile !
landline: 6 days
mobile: 3 months

@Nico B. Hello Nico, I received an e-mail that Telekom accepted my cancellation of contract as of 31.12.2021. As it is in German I translated it via a tool and I am not sure if I understood everything correctly. Would that be possible for you to help me to understand is there anything I need to do further or should I just pay my bills until the end of December? Or even can we cancel it earlier? I already moved back to my country and not using my Telekom number anymore. Thank you in advance!
