Millions of EE customers have been receiving text messages this week outlining how much their monthly payments will increase from April.
The mobile data provider has announced that it will increase price plans by 14.4 per cent. According to the company, which has roughly more than 20 million customers in the UK, the planned increase is in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate of inflation published in January, plus 3.9 per cent.
It means that customers currently paying £57 a month for example will instead be charged £65.21 a month either on or after March 31. EE has also informed customers that the price rise is part of an agreed increase which customers signed up for when starting their contract with them.
