Cap the cost of residential internet fibre packages

Closed 41 signatures

What the petition asks

Currently there is no 'cap' on what service providers can charge consumers and we think the area and the infrastructure used may affect the price.
We think that certain areas should not be penalised and charged more for a service which ultimately is the same in most circumstances.

More modern legislation around what providers can charge (i.e a price cap), we think it would mean consumers would be offered the same/similar service for the same price across the board regardless of the area or network they use.
