I got a phone call from Virgin Media, only said about second year paying £4 extra, but third year is quite big increase, from £28 to £58, I wonder why £20 added to the monthly price, £240 extra for that year ? 

So first year £288

Second Year £336

Third Year £696

Fourth Year £744.

Looks like you've got a new contract set up with a broadband provider. Those price increases over the next couple of years might be a bit steep, though. Have you thought about whether you'll stick with this provider long-term or shop around later on?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 11:07 AM

Yes, only said about second year, the third year is massive ?

youToday at 11:08 AM

Yeah, that third-year price jump does seem huge. Going from £28 to £58 is quite a leap. Are you thinking of trying to negotiate a better rate or looking into other providers before then?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 11:08 AM

It a contract that last two years, so need to think about someone else, in two years time.

youToday at 11:09 AM

Two years will fly by before you know it. You'll probably have plenty of options to consider then. Do you think you'll be switching to a different provider or upgrading/downgrading your current plan?

That's a pretty steep increase in the third year. It's understandable that you're wondering why the price jumps up by £20 per month. Maybe it's worth asking Virgin Media directly about the reason behind this large increase in the third year.

youToday at 11:27 AM

That sounds interesting! What’s the promotional offer they have for the broadband package?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 11:28 AM

So if you do not renegotiate after 24 months, then the increase will be a lot more ?

youToday at 11:29 AM

Correct, if you don't renegotiate, the price will automatically increase significantly after the initial 24-month period. It seems like a good idea to review and potentially renegotiate or switch providers before then to avoid the large price jump.

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 11:29 AM

That something I do not like about Virgin Media, they offer lower prices to sign you up, but after a set amount of time, then the price go up a lot.

youToday at 11:30 AM

They do seem to follow a common practice among telecoms providers, where the introductory offer is attractive, but the price hike afterwards can be substantial. I'm sure you'd rather have more transparent and consistent pricing throughout the contract term.

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 11:30 AM

Yes, that would bee something I like much better.

youToday at 11:31 AM

Consistent pricing would definitely provide a clearer understanding of what to expect from the service. It's something Sky does better, which might be worth considering when you're reviewing your options.
