My German bank account is finally closed. This means that the cellphone scammers from O2 can't continue charging me. First they refused to cancel after I left the country, despite the word of the salesman in Marienplatz.
This meant that for the next 18 months I was being charged €20/month for a line that I couldn't use. This February, the two years of the contract expired, so in March I called them again to cancel it for good.
Then they demanded documents to prove that I had left the country, which should be a moot point. Despite my insistence, they wouldn't relent.
I just went to the post office and sent them a simple signed cancellation letter, which they apparently haven't acknowledged.
So they can go to hell. I only wish I'd said this 18 months (and 360Euro) ago.
