       Nice to know that in these difficult times our broadband provider, Virgin Media, is increasing our package price by £4 a month.I understand the need for occasional price increases as a result of additional features but when these come, in what is a time of hardship for some, it's a bitter pill.Moreso when you're the loyal customer of 20+ years and frequent switchers take advantage of better than 50% price reductions for a six month period.Shameful really. 😔

       @neildarlow Have you considered A&A? https://www.aa.net.uk/broadband/why-choose-aaisp/

       @wizzwizz4 I'll take a look but the advantage of unlimited broadband, with a gaming-happy son, is a major consideration.Our recent usage figures were 352GB (one month) and 51 PetaBytes (last 12 months) - I can't even visualise that last one.We're currently on a 200Mbps tier and I really look forward to him going to Uni to acquire a sense of reality on data usage/cost. 😀

       @neildarlow No way has he hit 51 PB. You can only *get* 788 TB in a year on a 200Mbps plan.
