That's £96.00 per year more than they originally contracted for!

Under J3 of Virgins terms and condition, does that mean we can cancel the phoneline if unhappy about the increase?

J3

If we and/or Virgin Media Payments:
a) increase our charges under this agreement
b) make significant changes to the services so the services you are entitled to receive in return for the charges you pay are significantly altered or reduced; or
c) make significant changes to the terms and conditions of this agreement (including the other legal stuff),

you may cancel those services affected without penalty by giving us and/or Virgin Media Payments (as applicable) at least 30 days' notice.

It might be cheaper for people to cancel their landline service with Virgin and take a much cheaper mobile contract with them instead.
The trouble is for some people including myself a landline service is a necessity.
