@Springchicken,
Pay it , do not pay it. Put a complaint in, do not put a complaint in. Leave O2, do not leave O2.
Principle is a great word to use when you want too. If O2 are proven to be in the wrong then great but if they are not, which as Ofcom has already ruled on orange then is your Principles wrong?
Come on we are talking pennies here and you would have been more hard done by if you was with another carrier.
I do not see Sainsbury customers kicking up such a fuss when there nectar points do not buy them a punnet of strawberries because they have increased the price 200%.
A contract must be Mutually agreed? You want a phone with a tariff. You sign/agree to the contract.... Mutually agreed.

@Springchicken
Seems we are going to have to agree to disagree on this one.
My point is that we encounter price increase everyday but turn the other way to suit our own personal needs.
By mentioning Sainsburys or any food chain I was highlighting the fact that everyday over thousand of products the prices are made by them to there own profit which is not what O2 are doing.
The other culprits are electrical companies that sell on finance, you go into a store and the product price is x, sign your contract and the next month they are selling the product for less. Its just one of those things that happens and all the jumping up and down, shouting moaning will not change it.
Ofcom have already set precedence on this matter with orange in November 2011 ( may be wrong on the date)

@spring-chicken
I am not going to debate it any longer with you over a 58p a month average price increase. You signed the contract, if find a way out of it or shut up and accept it.
People are quick to try and point out flaws in a contract when it suits them but not when then are getting the latest phone as part of there contract.
You mention principles I have principles as well and if I sign a contract then I honour it, if I have been naive and stupid in not reading it then that is my error.
