Plusnet to increase voice line rental from 2nd September
From:
http://www.thinkbroadband.com/news/7...september.html "PlusNet is bucking the inflation trend and is putting up voice line rental to £16.99 per month, which means it will match BT and Virgin Media. A note in the providers price guide details the price rises which kick in on 2nd September 2015. The changes largely affect the voice side of things. Voice line rental at £16.99 per month from either £15.99 or £15.95 12 months line rental saver increasing to £185.88 from the current £155.88. Evening and Weekend inclusive calls package rising £1 to £3 per month. Anytime calls rising £1 to £6 per month. Call set-up fee will be 16p, rise of 1p. 01, 02 and 03 calls outside any bundle rising to 10p per minute Calls to mobiles rising to 13p per minute. P&P on routers increases to £6.99. Early termination charges will change, but depends on your exact package. Following the Ofcom rules those affected should receive notification over the next few weeks to notify them of the price changes and already on our forums we are seeing people planning to renew their line rental saver ahead of the changes to make the most of the current price." The line rental saver is an enormous increase of £30/year making it the equivalent of £15.49/month from the current equivalent of £12.99/month. |

"Voice line rental"? What's that? It's just Line Rental and sadly you have to have it even if you only want fibre broadband through it and never use it for calls ever like me.
It's a hang-over from GPO days and is just an excuse to advertise low priced broadband and not include the line rental that you have to have to get the broadband. It's time they stopped line rental altogether or at least brought in a reduced version for people only using it for broadband. But of course they won't do that as they can force it on you to have to pay it just to get broadband and so won't stop now. |

I use Plusnet but never use them for standard telephone calls - 18185 is the answer if you think plusnet telephone calls are too expensive.
