Question - (7 November 2015) 4 Answers - (Newest, 8 November 2015)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Ok, so my ex and I were together for almost three years. We combined our cellphone bill a year into the relationship, but we broke up 4 months ago.

I've been paying it since he's been out of a job but we're not together anymore.

He recently took up treating me like crap, ignoring me when I ask a simple question, like can you make the bill this month or have you found a job?

All, I ask is those questions, no flirting, nothing and we we're civil until a month ago.

Now, he won't reply to any of my messages regarding getting his bill transferred so I messaged his mom to transfer it to her and so now, she's pretty much told me that my calling him a loser, which I've never done, and asking him to come up with money that he doesn't have isn't helping his situation.

I recently got laid off which means I can't afford either one of our bills but my parents are willing to help me pay mine if I get him off, problem is it's a huge termination fee that no one can afford.

So, my question is, How do I get them to accept this transfer?

Sageoldguy1465 agony auntYou go to the shop of your cell-phone supplier... find a salesperson,,,, and say to that person: "I would like to drop (whateverhisnameis) phone from my bill, in the future. OK?"

That should finish the matter....

Good luck...

The termination fee is more than I can afford and they won't pay for it, she keeps saying that she'll come up with the money but she needs time when I have given her three months of time to raise $200. You're right, I can't move on until he gets the heck off my plan.

You have TRIED to be nice and transfer the phone and got nowhere, you TRIED to ask his mom to accept the transfer and she refused, so SHUT OFF the phone.

Call or even better GO to the service provider and EXPLAIN why you need his phone off your bill.

A friend of mine went though the same (almost, as it was her daughter who REFUSED to sign the papers) and she (my friend) went to the store and they shut the other phone off.

So consider that.

Go to your service provider and have the phone shut-off. You don't have to pay his bill if it's your plan. Just make sure your plan doesn't have a penalty, and bills are not late. It will adversely effect your credit! Keep all your credit card receipts for proof you've paid his portion of the bill.

If worse comes to worse, take him to small claims court. Keep paying the bill until you can make other arrangements to protect your credit. You can have the number for the other phone disconnected if you aren't both co-signers on one phone plan. You should ask your cellular service provider how to separate the bills, if you are both on one plan.

Stop calling him. He's using that to upset you. Why are you bothering an ex who doesn't want to speak to you. You know what an "ex" is, right? It's not just about bill, you're having trouble moving on. He's being spiteful. Don't empower him that way.

Go no contact. File a small claims suit.
