Not completely true, and it confused me a bit as well.

Some customers on standalone broadband had a price rise last year. However some that took out or changed their package from around August/September onwards will have a price increase in February.

This meant for some customers that phoned up about the increase last year, got put on the new price which is increasing in February, so actually got two letters (but only one actual notified increase).

The price change won't apply until you get a bill where the whole service period is in February.
