The only way to change things would be to look at what laws are involved stipulating what companies have to do via small print and T&Cs. However, it would either be down to getting a law put into place stating that they must be written a certain size and in a certain language, or if you can get lucky, get a large company like Virgin to change the way they do it and hope other companies follow their lead.
On the other hand, I am pretty certain if you can't read the small print you can request a large print copy from the company/supplier and they have to provide it otherwise they are going to have issues with accessibility/inclusion laws.

So if you do not read it but you can be caught out by it and you lose money, goods and or rights, you would then be angry and care?
Read it - you can't even type it 
I think we could campaign for things to be in larger print - I cant read half this tuff even if I wanted to!
Is it not about time that the small print con is tackled. How can it be right that consumers rights can be infringed by very small and complicated print that can be used against consumers by providers. If anything in small print could not be used in a legal process for any reason it would be pointless. All legal warning should form part of the terms and conditions in "normal" print for all to clearly see.
So how can we start the ball rolling?
