cancel the contract from the day before
Explanation:
this is a grammatical question - nothing to do with expiry, the upphörande belongs with säga upp

This is also what Tom Thumb seems to be saying in a roundabout way

If the assignment of the contract is to the customer's disadvantage, he can cancel it with effect from the day before it is assigned. Very logical and fair.

The other answers just don't make sense!

att säga upp avtalet till upphörande dagen innan överlåtelse
to give notice terminating the agreement (taking effect) on the day pre-assignment


Explanation:
The way it probably parses is notice terminating the agreement to expire = till upphörande - on the day before the assignment = dagen innan överlåtelse.

cf. zum Tag x den Mietvertrag kündigen: to give notice terminating the lease on day X OR give notice to quit the premises expiring e.g. effective on that term date.

agree  Thomas Johansson: Yes, this interpretation may be correct. (to cancel the contract in such a way that it terminates on the day before the transfer/assignment)

  -> Tack, tack. Unfortunately, the way the question ends suggests upphörande agrees with dagen. But it doesn't. It goes on with 'innan överlåtelse'. That's why I added those 2 words.
