I'm only four months into my contract....

Regrettably, i think you're spot on. Whole thing smacks of VM taking its customers for a bunch of mugs - which we probably are. Hope they have extra staff in the phones on 1 August, but they won't of course. Suspect cancelling on that date will require lots of patience.
