Hello,
3 weeks ago we subscribed a contract for Kabel Internet (Cable Max 1000) in a Vodafone Shop.
One week later, the technician called to inform that the installation is in fact not possible, since they see a "ban" on our building. Apparently other appartments requested installation in the past, and the landlord explicitely refused to allow installation of fiber cables in the basement.
We therefore have to go back to the good old DSL and subscribe a new contract.
However, what happens now with the Kabel Internet contract we just subscribed? The Vodafone Shop assured that it would be automatically cancelled in the next few weeks - and that we won't be of course charged for anything since the connection is not possible. This makes totally sense, but it would be nice to have a written documentation - I would like to avoid having problems in the future and end up with 2 running contracts.
At the moment I am just looking for a confirmation that the first Kabel contract will be concluded, in order to go on and subscribe a DSL contract as soon as possible. So far, seems like nobody can produce this kind of documentation tho.
Has anybody had a similar situation? How long did it take for the old contract to be cancelled? How were you notified about the cancellation?

As soon as the technician gives the feedback that the installation is not possible due to a prohibition by the landlord, the contract is automatically canceled. You will receive a written confirmation of this, usually by email.

Hello artino,
what is the current status? Any news? No? Then tell me first in which state do you life.
Best regards

Hello,
I live in Baden-Württemberg.
At the moment, nothing changed and the "contract" seems to be still open.
Moreover, I received two bills, for October and November (with a lower amount than expected tho). I have not been charged yet, but I can see them in MyVodafone.
Calling again the customer care, I receive different opinions each time. Sometimes they tell me that they need a paper from my landlord saying that the connection is not possible to finally cancel the contract, sometimes I have been told to just wait few days for this confirmation, and sometimes they promise to send me the confirmation in the next minutes but nothing arrives.

Hello @R4mona,
thank you for looking into it!
Could you please tell me, what would be the definitive solution to get more information about what is going on?
So far, calling the customer service or going to the Vodafone Shop did not really solve anything.
As an update, MyVodafone does not show any contract at the moment. I can only see not-so-informative messages. Still, the main point now is finding out why I got charged for something that never worked (and, seems like, will never work).
Have a nice day

Hey artino,
I see in my system that you were charged the prorated monthly premium for October (10/21/2021 to 10/31/2021) in the invoice dated 11/05/2021. The invoice from 11/12/2021 shows the pro-rated calculation for November (11/01/2021 to 11/10/2021). The contract was terminated on 11.11.2021. Unfortunately, I do not see any further information.
Many greetings
