The way out was the "abusive terms" each Consumer Protection Act has.
Basically a lot of the terms in a contract are abusive and you can dispute that in court
if necessary and have them turned in your favour.
Just read up on the existing laws, it will be entertaining and you'll learn a lot.
What I did was select a few points in the contract which I considered abusive and told them that
"I find the following terms abuse according to Customer Protection Act ...,
I consider this discussion closed and if you want to have this points proved in court just go ahead and send me the papers"
Funny thing is not only did they chilled down but they even paid me a month of service back.
Do not get scared about their tactics, thats what they do for a living.
As a good customer the courts will most of the times rule in your favour.
