....Maybe

   Phone and broadband mid-contract price surprise rises banned (bbc.com)

Just been reading this on reddit, and looks like EE will be £1.50 per month after the initial 12mths and Vodafone will be £1.80 per month after the initial 12months .. 

These are just rumours....

Got a bit excited until I read it was 17th Jan next year!

For many people on lower priced tariffs both EE and Vodafone's proposals could see a bigger rise than under the present system

Yes @Enlli, I do not think that it was what the regulator had in mind. 

I suppose that the only advantage is that you know precisely what rises you will face when you sign your contract. I read a couple of days ago that all BT Broadband packages will have a £3.00 per month rise on each 1 April from next year. If inflation continues to fall, that is steep. 👍
