- Notice period: If you want to cancel your contract, you should note the notice period. This is at least three months before the end of the contract period.
- Cancellation in good time: We recommend that you send the cancellation at least one week before the end of the cancellation period so that it can also be processed on time.
- Termination in writing: The termination should always be sent in writing to the provider by registered mail. So you are on the safe side.

- Take your phone number with you: To take your phone number with you, please state this explicitly when you cancel. The old provider then carries out a so-called porting of the number, which costs you between 20 and 30 euros. Many providers will then grant you a credit. You can get more information directly from your provider.
- Premature termination: An early termination before the expiry of the notice period is only possible in hardship cases, such as when the contractor has died.
