Petition Regulate mobile phone bundled contracts to stop hidden charges & data misselling

Consumer request to regulate over-charging in 24 month bundled contracts, ensuring clearer, transparent pricing for both the phone and the tariff in the contract, ensuring customers can get access to their data consumption and aren’t overcharged for data they don’t need, or overpay for the phone.
