Why is the figure not the advertised price?

Most British providers publish rises for later in the contract, in pounds and pence as Ofcom requires of contracts since 17 January 2025. The advertised price lasts a few months; the figure here averages the advertised price and each published rise over the contract term, so a plan that advertises less and rises more ranks where it belongs.
