'Obsolete' 3yr phone deals are outlawed
THREE-YEAR mobile phone contracts have been outlawed by Brussels. Thousands of such lengthy deals, which critics said 'saddled' users with obsolete phones, have now been taken of the market. The EU ruling has also forced providers such as O2, Vodafone and Orange to offer 12-month contracts which had all but died out. the number of contracts on the market have soared from 279 in February to 4,765 at the start of this month.
