Can a company tell you to subpoena the court for a copy of your contract?

I have been disputing T-mobile due to them changing terms of my contract. I contacted them within the responsible amount of time they have in terms and agreements. They told me that since it has not adversely effected me that it was not of there concern to let me out of the contract with no termination fees. I asked for a copy of my signed contract either digitally signed or the original signed copy. That’s when I was told I would have to subpoena the court for the contract.

from what you have written, if you are not already in a lawsuit with your mobile phone provider, its representative is telling you to file a lawsuit against it in that a subpoena can only be issued via a lawsuit. It seems that your mobile phone provider is not being cooperative with you concerning your dispute and the document you want to see.

In order to get the document you want without having to file a lawsuit and have a supoena issued, I suggest that you make a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission with respect to your provider of your mobile phone.
