Broadband Yearly Price Increases?

[SpellowHouse]

I seem to be always posting about prices!

Today I was just casually looking at a variety of supplies and some of them have increases baked in to the contract.

Plusnet, for example, are £37.99 for a 900Mbps service. That sounds reasonable until you get to the final stage of information before buying it, where it suddenly tells you that's only the start price, because in March that rises to £40.99 and from Mar 2026 it again rises, this time to £43.99.

Are these yearly increases a thing now?

I am not actually interested in using Plusnet but I was just wondering whether this yearly increase thing has become the norm?

Im with BT ( now EE ) and yes it goes up every year. This year was £3 a month extra on top of an already expensive bill and it wont be that long before its over £50 a month

That seems to be the same as Plusnet. They are working on £3 a year every year. I'm interested (in a bad way) to see what happens with my current supplier.
