Take care

 He cheated on you ALOT....i say just cut the cell phone off. go and cancel that number. He is not deserving of you being nice to him as he obviously was not nice to you. Like the other aunts said, you could very well be up crap creek with out a paddle if he stops paying his portion of the bill. He could easily misuse and abuse the privelege you have given him....take it away!

 Hello Anon,
I personally think that if you two aren't together then he shouldn't be listed as part of your plan regardless of if he cheated or not.
Because - like dragonette said - if he refuses to pay his portion of the bill at some point, then it's going to be up to you to pay it off since the plan is still in your name.
This doesn't seem like a good idea. And since the phone is part of your plan, I don't think you'd have to bring him along with you to the phone shop. Just tell them that you want his phone off of your plan and let your ex know what you're doing. But call the phone company first to make sure this can, in fact, be done.
Plus - do you really want to be reminded of the ex who constantly cheated on you every time you go to pay your phone bill? I know I wouldn't want that for myself... It's bad enough that it happened during your relationship - why should you be reminded about it until your phone plan ends?
Take care.

 Personally, I would not hold myself economically responsible for a cellphone of somebody I was not in a relationship with. What happens if he runs up a bill of 100£ and refuses to pay it? Then you're probably responsible by contract to pay that.
If I were in your shoes I would get in touch with my ex and go together with him to the cellularcompany (they probably have a shop where they're represented) and ask to have his number transfered to his name.
If that's not a possibility, then by all means, cut the line.

 the right and moral thing to do would be to let him keep paying his bill and let him keep the rental as long as he keeps up with payments. after all u2 arent together anymore sowhat he's done is nothing to do with u. howwwwwwever, I would probably cut off his line out of spite and as a form of revenge- not the best thing but id feel abit even at some of the hurt would be gone lol
