Ofcom Enforce BAN on Some Mid-Contract UK Broadband Price Hikes (www.ispreview.co.uk)

submitted 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) by Mex to c/uk_infrastructure

Ofcom will tomorrow begin enforcing a new rule that bans UK phone, mobile, pay TV and broadband providers from doing mid-contract price hikes that are linked to inflation (CPI or RPI) and percentage-based changes. The change will make pricing clearer for new customers, but some consumers could still pay more than under the old model.

Severn Valley Railway proposes 'radical' change in c/rail

I think enthusiast is a loaded term, it shouldn't put people off having a fun day out and looking at some cool trains.

Don't think I've had a bad time at a heritage railway, especially if you time the visit for when a beer festival is on.
