EE says that as the majority of its customers are on tariffs which include unlimited calls and texts, most won't be materially affected.
But if you suffer "material detriment" as a result of the price increase, you CAN leave your contract without paying an early termination charge.
EE says it's contacting customers who are materially impacted by the change to let them know they're eligible to leave penalty-free. You'll need to contact EE within 30 days of receiving your notification about the price increase.
Or if you'd prefer to stick with EE, this could be a good opportunity to haggle a better deal – see our
Mobile Phone Haggling guide for full info.
If you regularly use out-of-bundle services, you may also be better off changing your plan to include more calls or texts. Or if you make lots of international calls, check our
Cheap UK and International Calls guide to see if you can do it more cheaply.
If you're not contacted, but believe you will suffer "material detriment" as a result of the change,
contact EE to ask to be able to leave penalty-free.
