    <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm on the Home Essentials package at £15 per month&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I got an email back in Jan telling me it was going up to £18, then another mail in Feb saying the prices would remain frozen. I logged on to my account and next month's bill will be £18&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've look on here and other forums which say it should remain at the old price, but I called BT and they seem to think the price rise is correct although he said the rise is consistent across all packages, something the email contradicted&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does anyone know what the real rate is?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
