How we calculate Remaining Contract Charges for mobile
- we add together all outstanding monthly (or other periodic) charges for the remainder of your minimum term, factoring in any recurring monthly discount to which you are entitled, calculated at a daily rate
- we then deduct VAT at the prevailing rate
- we then deduct 4% for early receipt of payment to get the final charge you owe us
- finally, we add VAT at the prevailing rate to get the final charge
Here are some examples of Remaining Contract Charges.
Example 1
You have a monthly recurring plan at £30 a month, with three months left. We multiply £30 by three, totalling £90. We then take VAT off that figure, leaving £75. Then we take 4% off that figure and add VAT to get the final Remaining Contract Charge of £86.40
Example 2
You have a monthly recurring contract at £45 a month, with six and a half months left. You also have a monthly recurring discount of £10. We multiply £35 (£45-£10) by six and a half totalling £227.50. We then take VAT off that figure, leaving it at £189.58. We then take 4% off that figure and add VAT to get the final Remaining Contract Charge of £218.40.

How we calculate Early Cancellation Charges for EE Broadband
- we add together all outstanding monthly (or other periodic) charges, excluding VAT. If you have a monthly recurring subscription discount, we will take that into account
- we then reduce the charge to take account of any costs we save as a result of you leaving early, such as wholesale costs where applicable
- we then off an amount for early receipt
- we then multiply this by the remainder of your minimum term
- finally, we add VAT at the prevailing rate to get the final cancellation charge
Here are some examples of Early Cancellation Charges.
Example 1
You are on the Standard Broadband plan at £31 a month, with a £12 monthly recurring discount, which means you are paying £19 a month. You cancel with two months left in your minimum term:
- we take off the VAT leaving £15.83
- we take off the costs we save (for example, £10.49 per month) leaving £5.13
- we then take off an amount for early receipt (for example 21p) making £4.92
- we multiply this by the two months to get £9.84
- finally we add VAT to get an Early Cancellation Charge of £11.81
Example 2
You are on the Fibre Broadband plan at £36 a month, with an £11 monthly discount, which means you are playing £25 a month. You cancel with six months left in your minimum term:

- we take off an amount for early receipt (for example 31p) making £7.52
