How Much Is Unlimited Now?

I've just been billed £15.99 for Unlimited but thought that the price was going up from January. The VAT figure has been increased but the unit (pre VAT) price has been reduced to £13.61 (from £13.90 in December).
Have I got this wrong or have I been billed incorrectly?

As I recall, products introduced while VAT was at the lower rate continue to have the same price now VAT has increased.
Older products were reduced in price when VAT went down and have now had their prices increased to what they were before they were decreased.

Thanks, that would make sense and would explain why the cost of my Home Phone has gone up but not my broadband.

Re: How Much Is Unlimited Now?

Since Unlimited is no longer supplied  Crazy
My email (dated 15/12) says :-
Quote
We’re writing to let you know that the government is increasing VAT on 1st January 2010 from 15% back to 17.5%. So, from your January bill onwards the monthly subscription for your Unlimited service is changing.
If you’re in one of our low cost areas you’ll pay £16.34 a month, otherwise you’ll pay £20.42 a month. If you’re still in your first 3 months the monthly subscription will be £12.25 a month. Any other special offers will be unaffected.

So mine is going up to £20.42 from this month, last months was £19.99 and I assume yours will change to £16.34 ?

Re: How Much Is Unlimited Now?

Hi Biker. I've just had a dig through my old questions and found the same e-mail. So, as you say, my broadband should have gone up to £16.34 this month.
Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut  !!!

Edit, I assume someone from PlusNet will pick up on this thread and make the necessary amendments?

It's already set at the new price for next month, I wouldn't worry about it this month Wink

Re: How Much Is Unlimited Now?

Sorry, I did say "As I recall...". I was partially right in what I said just that I gave the wrong answer for Unlimited - which was what you asked about. Embarrassed
