Which mobile contracts are inclusive of VAT?

Worry_wart_2

I'm currently on Vodafone PAYG and I'm thinking of going on contract, which networks charge inclusive of VAT? I've seen that some add it on top and others have it inclusive.

All contracts except business ones are quoted with VAT included.

I'd be interested in seeing this.

That would be the business contracts - whilst they quote net they then add the VAT, which some people have been caught out with.

I'd like to on the Orange network and they infact do add VAT on top of the amount in this example here:

I think I'm going to go for this deal here, I spoke to an advisor and they said the charge is inclusive of VAT.

Best to wait till iphone 5 comes out, the 4 might drop in price .. unless you got money to burn.

They do show the VAT in the bill (like all other networks), but this doesn't mean that the price they show on the website doesn't include VAT.

My contract is Dolphin £25 (£25.54). My bill shows £21.28+£4.26 VAT.

I think I'm understanding more now, so am I right in saying that if I take this deal at £35 a month for 24 months it would just be £35 and no more than that? I'm just worried about any unexpected charges I'd get on top, sorry to be such a pain.

Yes, that's right. That deal will be £35 including VAT.

Yes, the bill has to be 29.17+5.83=35.00

Do you know that there are £30-£31 deals with less minutes?
