Re: Mobile operators are all theives

"mobile operators (mostly] are greedy bloodsucking parasites most of the time,"

We're agreed on that. Applies in some other sectors too.

""is it a hire purchase or not" is quite simple"

Simple for you, and rewarding for the lawyers, maybe. But if the facts are that simple why do the telcos and their lawyers etc try to hide the legal and practical realities?

"all in black and white in the contract that you have signed."

If the suppliers were up front and honest about these things, and didn't try to hide important stuff in the smalll print, there'd have been no need for the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts (and related) laws in the UK - laws that have existed in one form or other for decades, and which only a few years ago were incorporated in the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
