Is It Possible to Break a Lease on Equipment That Is No Longer in Use?

by New Equipment Leasing on May 3, 2011

I leased a credit card machine for a business but now that the business is closed, I no longer use it. I've asked the company if I could get out of my lease but they won't let me break it unless I pay the remaining months plus a fee. Am I getting screwed or is this normal? There is nothing wrong w/ the machine, it's just not being used any longer.

You are bound by the terms of the agreement. That is why you should NEVER sign a contract of any kind unless you fully know the consequences.

To obtain a legal opinion on this i would have to see the lease agreement. no-one can give you a decent answer until they have seen what the obligations are of each party to the agreement.
