Solved: O2 terms and conditions queston

Anonymous · ‎24-01-2013

hi all,

i relised the prices went up a few months ago and aparantley they are due to go up again in feb, are o2 breaching there contract terms because in there terms it says they can only do it once in a 12 month period as in the terms it states:

5.2 We may increase or decrease our Charges from time to time. If we increase our Charges (apart from for Additional Services), we’ll let you know at least 30 days before the Charges are due to go up and you’ll have the rights explained in paragraphs 5.3 and 5.4. We won’t increase your Monthly Subscription Charges more than once in any 12 month period

regards

The last increase was for Vat and I'm sure it was in December 2011, and was compulsory, nothing they could have done about that.

I don't remember any other price increase in the last five years.

Please show where the prices went up a few months ago?

Actually an interesting concept.

Some companies I remember decided to delay the vat increase indicating that its not a compulsory thing is it? (Or were they just paying the 2.5% out of the profits?)

I very rarely deal with VAT as I'm mostly a cash business so I'm not very clued up:(

Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong. So Ive been told

They still have to pay HMRC whether they charge it or not.

At least that's an original angle to try and get out of contract.... fruitless, but at least original

Price increases are always hard to stomach.... gas, electric, phone's but what really got me angry is when I realised that Space Raiders were now being sold for 40p per pack and Freddo bars at 65p... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!!!!!

Freddo bars price is the best judge of the state of the economy.
