No there isn’t. I did phone last night and of course got the usual we can put up our prices as long as we give you notice and you can leave. Yes I can leave BT Sport and now have done but really this is blatant misadvertising. I didn’t sign up to a monetary discount which I know keeps the discount fixed for the term but the price can increase. I signed up to a BB package that also offered FREE Bt Sport for 18 months.

I’ve cancelled Bt Sport now but also lodged an official complaint via Resolver. We’ll see what happens.

Has anyone rang BT about the overall effects of this? I am 10 months into a 18 month contract which gave me BB & phone @ £23.99 per month, BT TV starter pack free for 18 months and BT Sport for £4 per month for 18 months.
The email I received only states an increase to the sport pack and I can keep my price @ £4 by renewing to a new 18 month contract. So if I accept that and it also renews my BB and TV do I keep those services at the same price or will they go up as a new contract won't keep ym current discounts?
I will ring them but want to do my research first so I know what I am entitled to regards the current discounts I get.
Thanks

The next definite published BT BB price increase is March 2020 based upon CPI for January .
Normally you keep or better current discounts providing you haggle .

Got quite lucky and got through to a guy in Newcastle and he offered-

£21.99 for broadband and calls and £14 for MAX HD tv so total of £35.99 for next 18 months. I like footy so will use BT Sport. Seems like a decent deal to me and actually less than i'm paying at the moment of £38.99 as i was a bit hasty agreeing the last time and others got a better deal.

14 days cooling off period for the above.

Till we meet again BT.....and i'm sure we will in about a year no doubt!!
