Leaving Vodafone when not in contract

Options
If I leave Vodafone when I'm not in contract, will I pay pro-rata what I've used during that billing period? So if my contract is £31 per month and I've used it for 12 days I have a £12 bill?

    You'll pay from the day you give notice for the next 30 days, after which you'll be cut off and get a final bill. Full bill in advance, credit afterwards IF you don't exceeed your pro-rata bundle.

    Nothing to do with the billing period and you can't escape 30 day's notice (though can leave sooner by requesting a PAC and exercising that within 30 days - NOT both - but still be charged for 30 more days. You might avoid the 30 days' notice by so-called "upgrading" to a new contract - something I've never done and almost certainly will never do

    Your understanding is further flawed; you ARE in contract, just (presumably) beyond it's minimum term.
  • Yes I am in contract, it's a rolling month to month but my question still stood. If it would be pro-rata based on when I tell them I'm off. You addressed that too anyway, I just need to let them know then move near the end of the 30 day.

    Your calculation is correct. You will pay the full monthly amount though and the extra will be refunded so it works out as the pro rata amount in the end.

    Far from correct. It's as I stated and I'm not sure why that hasn't answered the question.
