BT increasing price during fixed term

kev2009

I just renewed mine with BT, i had some concerns of posts on plusnet forum of it taking a while to transfer etc so put me off a bit.

BT offered me the same deal I had now and have extended my discount to run the 18 month contract (was originally up in early part of next year) So to summaries, Yes i could get it cheaper with 2 other companies but both had reports various issues either in transferring or in service so as BT has been fine and no issues at all, I decided as my price wont increase for 18 months and i'll pay the same that I am paying now, it seemed the easier choice.

All i need to do now is check my bill next month to confirm all is in order

Thanks all

How much are you paying per month and what package are you on?.
A relative of mine recently phoned up to cancel due to the price increase and got the Infinity 2 package that is £39.99 for new customers for around £31 a month, so i hope you got a good deal!

Hi,

I don't have exact figures to hand but roughly, i get infinity 1, free weekend and think evening calls for £33 per month however i use the line rental saver which reduces my monthly payment by £18 roughly. I cant get the speed for infinity 2. They only guarantee approx 30mb for me and i think most i've seen is 34-36 tops so even the 52mb i cant achieve.

I am on superfast fibre 1 for £14 and I have line rental saver paid up front. Do people think that I should probably refix for the 18 mths?

18 months will include future price increases.
I get BB fibre 1 for £3 pm after price rise negotiations .

Hold fire, don't click the refix button, I gave BT a call, for the same deal they reduced my monthly direct debit from £16 to £9 for 18 months, I have line rental saver and unlimited fibre also staying with BT I have free caller display, free BT call protect and I retain my BT/Yahoo email addresses.

So unexpectedly this price increase has reduced my direct debit, but you must negotiate.

Caller Display Free to all from October .
BT Call Protect is that the free one ??


Is that £9 pm BB + ALR ??
