Your rules don’t work because you’re inside a form, and are only taken into account when the `ActionExecutionRejected` action is detected.

In this forum topic [Deactivate a form based on a slot value via story or rule - #2 by JulianGerhard](http://forum.rasa.com/t/deactivate-a-form-based-on-a-slot-value-via-story-or-rule/38677/2) they propose to solve the problem by dividing the form into several smaller forms.
