Mine includes a notice (pictured below) that says:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cAs of May 1, 2025, the monthly rate of your Internet service(s) will increase by $6 each. Your current pricing is reflected on this bill. If you have any questions, would like to cancel or modify your services, or to receive at no cost an updated agreement reflecting this change, please call us at 1 866 310-BELL (2355).\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1002945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/bell-may-2025-internet-price-increase.png\" alt=\"Bell May 2025 internet price increase.\" width=\"276\" height=\"600\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>To check your Bell internet bill, head to Bell\u2019s website and log in to your account. Once logged in, click \u2018My bills and payments\u2019 and select your internet account. Then, click \u2018Past bills\u2019 under \u2018My bill,\u2019 find the February 2025 bill and use the download option to get a PDF copy. In my bill, the notice was on the third and final page.<\/p>\n<p>If your bill is going up, there are a few things you can do. You can try contacting Bell and negotiating a price reduction, but your mileage may vary with that, and there\u2019s no guarantee you\u2019ll get a discount. (In my experience dealing with Bell price hikes, it took a long time on the phone arguing with various people before I eventually got a temporary monthly credit applied to cover the increase amount for a few months.)<\/p>\n<p>The other option and, in my experience, the better way to go, is to switch providers. Most internet service providers (ISPs) put more effort into acquiring new customers than keeping existing customers, so chances are you can get a good deal if you switch, and it sends a clear message to your old provider that you won\u2019t stand for price hikes.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a message Bell might need to hear, given it keeps raising prices. The company <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilesyrup.com\/2025\/01\/31\/psa-bell-internet-tv-prices-will-increase-for-some-canadians-tomorrow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">raised internet and TV prices for some customers in February<\/a> as well. It also raised prices multiple times last year, including <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilesyrup.com\/2024\/02\/15\/bell-is-increasing-mobile-plan-prices-this-month\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wireless rates in February 2024<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/mobilesyrup.com\/2024\/06\/28\/reminder-bell-internet-price-increase-july-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> internet prices in July 2024<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>MobileSyrup may earn a commission from purchases made via our links, which helps fund the journalism we provide free on our website.
