Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Gregory Campbell (Democratic Unionist Party), on Tuesday, 27 February 2024, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 6 members in total.
Mobile phone tariffs and inflation
That this House notes that a number of mobile phone operators have announced their annual tariff increase, which in April 2024 will be 8.8%; further notes that in recent years there has been an inflation plus 3.9% increase and in an environment where inflation is reducing, there is little or no justification for the 3.9% additional charge; and calls upon Ofcom to review the need for this extra charge when millions of individuals haven't availed of the reduced Social Tariff and are facing further increases in the use of a product that tens of million of people rely on.
