13 pages in. Anyone else find this extremely confusing? Still no idea who gets charged, who doesn't and why the products are named essential, essentials and all very similar but not so similar. Bit lost. Going to craw into my shell and accept this ones above me.

Indeed - the web page really needs more clarification and to be simplified.

Where is this "Essential" product? I can only find the "Essentials" one.

It's an old product I believe.

Another "bridge". You will need to explain if you want it to insult/annoy/upset me. Or even amuse. Are you having a bad day?

Looks like they is letting me go Hmmmm never offered me anything before when I've threaten to leave. any advice before I make the call?

(Like shovel your overpriced broadband up your [censored] coz I've been paying for your newbies for years, being
Market 1 and all that! )

Ah. Found it.

It was launched on 5th August 2008 and withdrawn from sale to new customers on 17th April 2009.

Apart from the fact anybody on it must be crackers, even if it hasn't been completely withdrawn and customers moved to something else, as it includes line rental presumably that will go up like the others.

Anybody on it will have received a relevant email. So no need for anyone not on it to be interested or confused.

There seems to be a lot of grousing for fun going on. There's a price rise, and so far as I can see quite straight-forward.

The only question in my mind would be whether or not a £1.50 increase in line rental on a phone and broadband package would legally be classed as significantly detrimental enough to warrant a free get-out. As PlusNet seems to be classing it as such even that isn't an issue.

As for any non-customers getting steamed up, uh? I don't see why they should.

Yes I'm just an outsider trying to fully understand it all

Yep feels much more straight forward now I understand it.

That's interesting. Thing is do they still charge for discounted new line installs, routers / equipment etc?

As for any non-customers getting steamed up, uh? I don't see why they should.

I don't see why existing ones should either. £1.50 whilst significant isn't terrible considering Plusnet were often virtually the cheapest to begin with. A £1.50 increase doesn't suddenly make their prices non-competative, just closer to average.
