Service provider Bouygues will levy cancellation fees on their no-commitment deals.
Here's a fresh take on the article, incorporating some relevant insights from the enrichment data:
Hey there! Got some news for you Bouygues Telecom customers, and it ain't all sunshine and roses. Looks like the operator's going to start charging termination fees when you decide to kick 'em to the curb, starting June 9, 2025, according to Sud Ouest.
You know, these charges are nothing new for fixed-line subscriptions, but it's the first time they're hitting mobile plans. If other service providers start following suit — which, hello, they might do — we could see a whole lot more fees popping up.
Now, about those fees... they're gonna set you back 5 smackers each time you cancel. That's if you've got one of B&You's 5G plans without a commitment. Here's a quick rundown on those plans:
- 4.99 euros for 1GB internet
- 8.99 euros for 40GB
- 9.99 euros for 200GB
Alright, now here's the catch. Bouygues Telecom says these fees won't apply if the cancellation's due to a force majeure event, like death, illness, imprisonment, or job loss.
But hey, before you go lashing out and cancelling your plan, remember that termination fees are typically reserved for committed plans. So, while it's not the norm for mobile plans without commitments, Bouygues seems to be shaking things up a bit.
For the complete lowdown on their policies, it's best to hit up the Bouygues Telecom website or give them a ring for the most accurate and up-to-date info. Just don't say we didn't warn ya!
