When anyone signs up to VM (and many many other services) you agree to a minimum contract length.
It's not VMs fault if you decide to move during that contract to an area that VM do not service.
They are not penalise the customers for moving, it's for ending the contract early.

So you then want out of the contract early, so is it not right that VM charge you for ending that contract early?

Isn't that normal practice for many things if you want to end the contract early?

If you're not sure if you will be able to complete the minimum contract terms, and you're not happy with the early termination fees, then I would suggest that you don't take the offer.
