Consumers have been issued a warning as tens of millions are expected to see broadband price hikes in April.
Some 10 million households on broadband deals face rises next spring, according to new research from Uswitch.com. This is because the majority of providers link their annual price rises to inflation rates.
Providers measure inflation based on the Consumer Price Index or Retail Price Index, with some including an additional price increase of three to four percent on top.
