Anyone know how BT are increasing BB + call packages ?  They are pretty clear on the £3 for BB but can't find anything about the call package increases.  Is it all included in the £3 ?

Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    Nothing in there gives the basis for future call plan increases for contracts entered into today, it simply shows a 6.4% increase on 2024 prices.  The BB prices show the % increase or £ increase depending on date contract started and is as in the new contract offer. There is no "your call plan will increase by" anywhere in the new offer The prices also bear no relationship to what is currently being charged or the new contract prices being offered.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

  • This is an information page re BT's Annual Price Change:

    For those on newer contracts (post 10 April 2024) there doesn't appear to be any 'baked-in' annual price rise for calling plans.

    That's the conclusion I have come to.  I had already found those links and was still non the wiser.
