Post Office Add 3 Months FREE Anytime UK Call Plan to Broadband
The Post Office’s ISP division will later today remove the unlimited UK weekend phone calls plan from their various broadband packages and replace it with a time-limited offer of 3 months free Anytime Plus UK calls (+£10 a month thereafter). Anyone who still wants free weekend calls will need to pay +£2 extra.
The cost of calling is also set to rise by between 1-2p across the board (e.g. per call connection charges will go from 21p to 22p and access charges go from 12p to 14p per minute etc.). The optional charge for those who need a new line or engineer will also become £30 for standard broadband (ADSL) and £60 for their superfast broadband (FTTC) packages.
Subscribers can still expect to receive an included wireless router, phone line rental, unlimited data usage, free calls to other Post Office Home Phone users at any time, free UK support and a free online tool (Parental Controls) that blocks harmful or inappropriate content online.
The Post Office also promises not to increase the monthly price you pay during the minimum contract term (excludes calling costs).

£42 a month for a phone line fibre? bit steep that. Shouldn’t you put a comment on these types of price lists pointing out that it isn’t fibre broadband if it comes down a phone line, just so you aren’t misleading folk unintentionally? or at least put some sort of caveat on to show you know the difference, this is a tech blog when all is said and done and I know the ISP industry calls it fibre not just the post office but we know it isn’t.
