"Hi, I'm Richard Branson and I'm increasing your bill"

Call me cynical, but the last time that they increased the broadband speeds for "free" (widely advertised), they then put the prices up. There is a common theme in the VM approach. The concept of false advertising springs to mind (Cue VM fans jumping in to say that the two are not linked, as last time ...).

So anyone asking "what else will we get to justify the price increase?" - you didn't think that the "Tickles" were free did you ...
