Vodacom increasing contract prices without communicating

I have been on a contract for sometime - low end of the scale, never needed many minutes/data/texts.

I noticed over the last two months that the overall monthly fee without additional charges increased by R50 which was around 14% on top. I queried this and they informed me that they have increased the minutes/data/texts in the package meaning I need to pay more.

This wasn't communicated and definitely never requested. Now that they have broken the contract I have signed up for 2 years I wanted to downgrade but there is no option other than buying out the contract.

Surely this is against the consumer protection act?
