Broadband costs

Marianne from Rangiora

I don't seem to be able to make a comment on the broadband poll.
My husband had a very pertinent question.
For how long does the lower price plan last? The reason I ask is because it has always been a short term contract and then you have to pay full price again usually at 12 months. Considering the amount of use it gets ie: news, email, movies, youtube etc. you really need a consistently low price as pensioners are on the minimum wage and our pay increase was just below the cost of inflation.
