UPC and the price of water

The television, broadband, phone supplier UPC has announced price increases.

The latest increases work out at 10 per cent. It is the third set of increases within two years. Last year's price rise worked out at 14 per cent.

Has anyone heard a murmur of complaint about UPC's price hikes?

Aproximatley half a million users will be affected. People are paying sums of €170 per month to UPC.

Not a word, even a whisper of protest and a government on its knees because it plans charging for the use of water.

Maybe Irish Water should employ UPCs PR executives.

A funny old country indeed.
