Do u think they can doo that ?

Hi!
I just found I have been fool by above.net sales rep. , and since I am not a US citizen and not familiar with the law there, i want to know if they can really do that.
I sign up their service (co-location) near 10 months ago, in a hurry, since the sales rep. comes from the same country like me, so I feel friendly and trust,he email me with an contact which you can see it here:

I sign it up without hesitate, and now , I feel their service getting worse and worse, so I ask him if I can cancel the account or shut one self down.
He gave me the answer like this:
You have to buy out the contract, pay recurring fee for the rest of the 26 months.

Can anyone check the contact and tell me if I have to do that ?
Before I sign, he didn't tell me that, and he didn't offer me any option, like 1 year or 2 year, he just print 3 years on the quote.
And I thought it means that price will keep for 3 years. 🙂

Other major co-location service provider play tricky game like this ?
Any suggestion where I can find a honest provider if I can get away with above.net ?

Thanks for your time.

Above.net is definitely going down the toilet, however when you sign a contract, you are supposed to read it fully.

The contract may not be enforceable between two countries and you may be able to just cancel it and tell him to go to hell. But you should see an attorney before proceeding.

At any rate, this is not the right place to be asking about legal issues.

Yes, I know this is wrong place, but I think maybe a lot of members here are webmasters or Internet Pro, so....

Thanks for your message.
