Hallo,
Wir haben folgendes Problem:
In unserer Straße wurde eine generalle Störung entstanden.
Danach wurden wir von zweien Vodafone-mitarbeitern besucht und sie hatten uns erklärt, dass Zentrales Gerät wurde geupdated und deshalb brauchte unseres Homestation auch ein Update. Außerdem sagten sie, wir könnten unseren Vertrag auch erneuen, die von Vorteil wäre und alles im Gebiet schon diese Richtung gegangen waren.
Wir hatten zugesagt und der Mitarbeiter hat beschtätigt, dass unserer alten Vertrag gekündigt wurde.
Nach ein paar Wochen war es noch nicht geküngidt. Ich habe den Mitarbeiter mehrmals durch Whatsapp Bescheid sagen, erstmal sagte er alles wird erledigt. Aber jetzt es ist zweite Monat ohne schluss und ich kann keine Antwort nehmen.
Wir haben seitdem jeden Monat zwei Rechnungen für die gleiche Adresse, Eine unter meine Name Andere unter die Name des meines Mann.
Ich habe schon versucht, der alten Vertrag zu schließen. Aber es scheint aus, dass Kündigungsfrist war bis Februar 2026, die wir nich wusste.
Wie konnte diese Lage von den Mitarbeitern nicht berücksichtigt oder erklärt werden, während des Besuchs?
Ich brauche Hilfe bei der Lösung dieses Problems.
Danke!

If your German isn't that good, please use English.

Ok I will also summarize in English.
We have a problem of having two Contracts (One is under my name the other is under my husband's) for the same adress which we didn't want.
We had a general connection problem in our street and after big amount of complaints Vodafone representatives visited houses for the solution which required the exchange of Kabel-modem in the house.
They also proposed to cancel the existing contract and start a new one due to financial benefits so we agreed.
Now after two months and no answer from those responsibles, I realized that the old contract was not cancellable (due to a speed upgrade) until Feb 26.
This was neither told to us nor regarded as a financial disadvantage proposal during the visit and we don't want to pay a service that we will not use.
I need help to sort this out and hope this time my explanation was more understandable.
Thanks!

Thanks for the answer!
I already tried TOBI one time but got stuck in a dead end of pre-defined options.
I hope somebody else already overcame this and may have an advise on how to.

If your notice of withdraw is within 14 days you may do it on defined ways

I’m afraid that you fell victim to provision hunters, usually independent agents who don’t work for Vodafone directly and make their money by selling new contracts. Signing a new contract is not necessary at all to switch to a different contract option. With your old contract still being within the minimum contract term after the speed upgrade it is not possible to switch to a cheaper option before that time runs out. You might be stuck with 2 contracts running now, you can only try to contact VF, hoping they terminate the cheaper one as a gesture of goodwill. For support in English, use WhatsApp and repeatedly request a Kundenberater from the bot until he forwards you to a human. Then responses will take some time, it isn’t a live chat and requests are worked on in chronological order.

Thanks Peter for the explanation.
I feel also scammed after the responses from the reprasentative stopped.
I will also try my luck with Hamburg Consumers Rights Center as a last resort.
I find an article about these situations which seem to be common:

I wish you the best of luck. It is a sad situation, and one that is not restricted to Vodafone only, things like that happen with Telekom and other providers, too. As long as the agents are paid poorly and based on the number of contracts they sell this will not change. The providers profit from it, and in case of problems they tend to sit back, claiming that the agents don’t work for them directly.
