Network operator and ISP Sure, which is present on the Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey, has informed existing customers of their intention to increase mobile, phone and broadband prices – in line with the Retail Price Index (RPI) – by “up to” 6.1% (Isle of Man), 5.8% (Guernsey) and 5.7% (Jersey) from 1st July 2024.
“We understand that price rises are something most of us would like to avoid, but it enables us to sustain investments in our networks, products and services across the island,” said the network provider. Some customers that have signed or re-signed their services since 1st April or 1st May 2024 “will not be impacted” by this RPI price increase.
The move follows shortly after local rivals, such as Manx Telecom on the Isle of Man, confirmed that many of their customers would also be hit by annual “inflationary” price hikes.
