Which is fine - I'm getting 300% faster broadband (incidentally quicker than i can get from anybody else), a package of channels that I want, and two extra boxes at a heavily discounted rate compared to new customers. All of this is cheaper for me compared to any like for like comparison with Sky/TalkTalk/BT etc. on a 12 month contract.

The fact is, prices go up over time due to various factors, inflation, technology costs, blah blah blah. If there was another company able to offer the same/similar products and services cheaper, then i would gladly change. Currently, there aren't.

Thanks for your input though
