fibre extra

I have just logged onto my account and noticed fibre extra on offer at £20.99.that's a lot cheaper than what i pay now so i doubled checked the wording definitely said line rental included.clicked the upgrade icon.

Now what do i find line rental at £18.99 on top of the £20.99 either it's me not reading your advert properly or it's worded to try and suck people in.

Re: fibre extra

@stonetostone You're definitely reading it right but like you say, digging in further, up pops the line rental. Must be a New Year Eve thing. You know, too much wine etc

Ever helpful. Grin Sure, I’d love to help you out. Now which way did you come in?

Re: fibre extra

Hi @stonetostone

 

Thanks for getting in touch and I am sorry to hear this.

 

I am not aware of an offer of £20.99 including line rental for Fibre Extra currently, would you be able to take a screenshot at all for me so we can look into it?

 

Thanks

Re: fibre extra

Hi @stonetostone

 

Thanks for sending over the screenshot, I am enquiring about this at my end for you.

 

In the meantime the image you have sent does include a symbol next to the price itself that would indicate there is an additional term or condition to the price, have you checked to see what this is relating to?

 

As soon as I have more information I will respond to you through this thread.

Re: fibre extra

Hi warwick

Wasn't there a ruling by the asa on the 31/10/2016 about the same thing that plusnet as done with the advert it looks the same to me. Plusnet are trying to mislead there customers with the pricing in bold letters of £20.99 no mention of line rental although it as a exclamation next to it
