    Just thought, I am not too sure about new contracts, mine is nearly 2 years old and I can cancel it with 1 months notice, but unsure how you would fare with a new one, also mine is only £13,99 a month anyway.

    mines £45 a month :( locked in for 18 more months tho I think I can reduce it down and after reading this intend to put on landline as i dont have a landline anyway

    Those who are saying to not include it on the SOA, bare in mind that the account will show on your credit file and witholding info from the OR is a biiiiiig no no.

    Hmm, maybe they just ignored it then. It's not a major thing but you have to be aware that some ORs would not be happy with hiding stuff like that.

    I think dojo is right OR would be intrested if it was over 15 a month and had arears but most ORs know you need conatct and are fine about it.

    Just dont take !!!! on amount and as most people do put in with landline as is allowable expense.
