I ordered a contract mobile via phone. I posted it back without signing the contract but to wrong address(head office instead of distributor). Now they say I am out of the change your mind period and they don't want to cancel the contract. The fact is that I can't pay as I am moving to other country. What can I do? How can I cancel a contract I never signed?

Hope someone can help with some advice.

I think your'e on dodgy ground

if the contract (and the fact YOU sent FOR the item means it is a contract) states return to xxxxx within whatever
and you didn't - you are in breach of that contract.

the old sent you a letter - forgot to include the cheque ploy is as old as the hills - so even when it's genuine - it's a job to prove.

the fact that you DID send it back to them (even if it was the wrong address) should count for something - but I suspect in law it counts for nothing and you are at the mercy of their good will.

it seems petty - but the mobile companies are dealing with huge numbers (of young people) and a fair proportion will "know the tricks" I imagine they will have a pretty inflexible attitude
