As usual some of the increases are more dramatic than others, with the cost of calling rising far faster than broadband charges.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that if you&#8217;re currently signed up to a Fixed Broadband or Home Phone promotional offer then the PO can &#8220;<em>guarantee your package price will stay the same throughout the duration of your contract<\/em>,&#8221; although obviously that will change once you go out of contract.
