BT has announced a price increase of almost 7% for millions of households signed up to its landline and broadband services.
The company, which supplies 9.5m households said landline charges will rise by £1 a month, to almost £18, while the cost of the popular Anytime calls package is set to jump 50p a month to £7.95.
The company’s broadband customers will see an across the board hike of just under 7%. BT said the cost to making a call to UK landlines and 0870 numbers will go up from 9.58p a minute to 10.24p. Set up fees will be rising by the same amount, meaning a one minute call from a BT landline will soon costs a minimum of 27p. Broadband customers will see prices rise by just under 7%.
