Vodafone mid-contract price rise

I took a contract out from Vodafone a couple of weeks ago and now found out they are raising the price in less than 2 months, is there anything I can do about that?

    Probably not. According to this article the rise will be covered in the contract you agreed to. So will be worth you checking.

    Afraid not, sorry-it's been published on their website since last April/May and will be in the Terms and Conditions you signed up to.

    Your contract for service has nothing to do with the price you pay (the 'Tariff') you can change tariff, and still be on the same contract. Ask if you can downgrade to a cheaper tariff - but if not, your increase cost would need to be over 10% in order for them to consider ending it as a goodwill gesture.
  • I suspect a contract that new will include any imminent price increases, which only apply a year in? Have you asked Vodafone (though that's a worse problem in its own right).
