Logged into my bank account to see that you're now charging me £9.99 rather than the £8.50 I usually pay. Why is this and why haven't I been notified about any increase in charges?
Do you really think that increasing customer's payments on the sly without informing them is good business practice?

Has a discount applied to your account come to and end?

@Mav Nope, my £1.25 referral was still taken off, but the base price has jumped from £8.50 to £9.99. Now what comes out of my bank is £8.74 rather than the £7.25 it's been for God knows how long.
It's not the increase itself that's [-Censored-]ing me off, it's the fact that they thought they could increase the price without informing me about any increases beforehand. Surely there has to be a law about that somewhere.

So your price you have been paying is £8,50 a month , then will your referral (£1.25) that brings it down to £.7.25 a month.
As PN do not offer a standard broadband package at £.8.50 a month but do at £9.99 (before you referral discount) you must have had a discount (£1.49 a month) which has now ended.
If you login to the PN member area have a look at a few of your bills , do you see a discount applied of £1.49 , which is not on your most recent invoice?

The price increase isn't until 29th June, snippet of the email I got on 25th may
From 29th June, we're changing some of our prices and our terms and conditions while making improvements to your service.
Your monthly package price will be increasing by £1.00 (full details below) so we can continue to offer our award-winning service
So billing has ballsed up something

As @Mav has suggested, it does sound like discounts on your account may have expired.
The base price for Unlimited ADSL broadband has been £9.99 for quite some time. If you were previous paying £8.50 for this, it would suggest you were on an offer giving you a discounted rate.

You can do this Here (Login required) I hope this clears things up.

Hey @Azagoth,
Further to Harry's post, it looks like you were advised that your discounts would only be for a certain period of time as per this ticket on your account when your contract was agreed.
