Andymc1 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Surely if you hand back the ST and/or it gets voided they couldn't chase you anyway. You're not paying and they're not providing a service. Unfortunately it'll be similar to mobile phone contract. Even if you snap the SIM card and cancel your DD you still have to pay the money. Thankfully, it doesn't sound like they'd bother their arse chasing the money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Chasing people for money would be a PR disaster and alienate others by consequence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 There'd definitely be no VAT due on that basis, but contractually I think the rest might be due legally - depending on the terms specified in the small print. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 When are renewals being sent out for those not on a Direct Debit scheme? I got one in Feb 2011, March 2012 (I think) and April 2013 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 If he has sold the debt for cash upfront then theoretically any debt collecting firm or bank could come for that money. In the accounts, he hasn't, but technically it's possible to sell the debt on and not take the PR hit because another firm will be chasing it.

KDT Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 It's not a form of credit though so although it's breach of contract you've already paid for what you've used, the season card being blocked is the worst they would do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCW1983 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 That's what I was getting at Mary. The numbers could be anything in that case. That is true but normally there'd be an accompanying letter as folk like to make a gesture/stand. Ian W is correct, although legally entitled (if you've signed up to 10 years) to pursue for the next season money it is unlikely to happen (but I'd stress that isn't nailed on and you should always pay your debts ) No offence but with the speed the box office works at, should they decide to chase you for money it would take them another 10 years to put their trainers on.

Big Geordie Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Just been some lad txt'd in on TS who reckons 5000 have so far not renewed. Of course, unconfirmed but Martin the Mackem shouted it down straightaway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, unconfirmed but Martin the Mackem shouted it down straightaway. Aye, heard that. Yet about 10mins beforehand he said if the amount of people who'd told him they weren't renewing didn't, then the ground would be empty next season. Radio Newcastle defo trying to play down the cancellation/non-renewal rumours, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely trying to keep the club onside - probably fearful of Ashley cancelling their commentary contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
