And I hoped all my posts have followed on, talking about what I have found about my BT plan that I now need to review in the light of price rises here and there. Quite a long chain though.

The supermarkets also have been putting a huge amount of prices up and yet not an eyelid is batted yet a phone provider who has put line rental up £1 per month gets attacked.


I'm a bit late to this thread but that is a good comment. All suppliers in the UK charge what their market will bear hence the price increase of basic products in supermarkets.

With the price of a reasonable bottle of Rioja in Spain at less that four euro I'm tempted to see what they charge for broadband there too.....!! Could I make a "profit" by moving?

Pretty pleased at the moment that I don't have a phone line, so no need to pay for line rental. sadly not everyone can do that.

Does the price rice still apply if you've paid up front for 12 months, surely that is part of the contract?

No, and if your 12 months is up soon you can renew early at the old price!

I don't think that it has been posted here that the rise has been deferred for a month - see http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,1084...

BT are puting the wholsale price of the line rental up. You will find BT retail are increasing the line rental.

All ISP's and Telco's will be putting he price up. Some will delay increasing it to try to gain business but it will go up
