Can anyone recommend a web link to pages that gives simple
explanations of 3 Mobile contract problems?

Despite a long email explanation from 3 regarding my current and
future contracts I can't quite get a clear understanding on at least a
couple of points.

If my 2 year contract is due to end in early April and I'm happy that
it will, do I need to give 3 notice of the fact?

If I accept that the contract will be automatically extended for a
further 2 years, initially at the current monthly payment rate, but
with the suggestion that the charges may be increased by 3 at any
time, am I bound to accept these future rises, or will there be an opt
out at that point?

No.

It won't. It'll either continue on the same terms but you can leave at any
time or will move to a PAYG service. Check your contract.

If you do nothing you'll be able to leave when you want. If you actively
sign up for a new two year contract then you will be bound to annual
RPI+3.9% price rises for the duration of the contract.
