Price Increase – 1st January 2026
We understand that everyone is dealing with various challenges, including changes in the global economy. After reviewing our costs and the recent increase in prices from our suppliers, we need to inform you about an upcoming price change for our services. We have tried to avoid this increase for as long as we could.
With the PSTN/ISDN switch off and these products becoming end of life, our suppliers have implemented increases.
All price increases are applied on a like for like basis, meaning that if our price increases by 5p, your price will also increase by the same value.
For further information related to the price increase please read the price increase notice (PDF).
Your January 2026 invoice will reflect the new price. If you would like access to your past invoices you can request access by emailing billing@chrometelecom.co.uk or log in to your billing portal.
If you have any questions, please contact our Customer Service team on 03333 212 707.
In line with Ofcom regulations, consumers, micro enterprises, small enterprises and not-for-profit organisations who subscribe to a telecommunications contract and pay recurring charges such as line rental have the right to exit their contract for the relevant services without paying early termination charges. This right to exit applies only to contracts entered into on or after 23 January 2014, and must be exercised within 30 days of receiving the relevant pricing notification.

Price Increase – 1st March 2023
Over the last six months it has been recognised that, whilst the pandemic may be over, businesses are facing different challenges, alongside global political and economic turbulence.
After analysing the economy over previous months and the costs being passed on to us by suppliers, and following the recent rise in inflation, we are writing to inform you of a necessary forthcoming price increase to your Chrome services. Please be assured we have made every effort to delay this increase for as long as possible.
Effective from 1 May 2023, Chrome Telecom Limited will adjust your monthly recurring charges in line with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) plus 3.9%. Chrome uses the CPI figure published by the Office for National Statistics in February, which was 9.2%, plus 3.9%, resulting in a total increase of 13.1%.
Chrome will also pass on increased costs from suppliers on a select few services, on a like for like basis. For example, if our cost increases by 20p, yours will increase by the same value.
Your new pricing will be reflected in your May 2023 invoice and can be viewed in your Chrome online account platform after that date.
Please refer to our terms and conditions, in particular point 10.13, for any clarification regarding this increase.

Price Increase Notification – 1st August 2019
At Chrome Telecom Ltd we pride ourselves on providing cost-effective and future-ready services, including hosted voice and SIP trunking. The UK telecoms industry is going through a major transformation, with many fixed-line voice services migrating to hosted voice and SIP-based services following Openreach’s announcement regarding the PSTN switch off.
As a result, the price of calls across voice services (excluding calls from mobiles) is regularly increasing as the cost of running legacy network services rises. We review any pricing increases carefully before absorbing or passing them on, but over the last 12 months we have seen a number of pricing changes from both our fixed line and VoIP providers.
From 1 September 2019, out-of-bundle calls to all destinations across our fixed line and VoIP services, including hosted voice and SIP trunking, increased at a flat rate of 5%. This does not affect calls from mobiles. If you have an inclusive call bundle, your in-bundle rate is not affected.
If you are unsure how these changes might affect you, or to discuss your account, please call one of our specialist advisors on 03333 212 707 or email cs@chrometelecom.co.uk.

COVID-19 Business Support
The Coronavirus crisis is evolving quickly and affecting every business. We are working closely with our key suppliers and industry bodies to find ways in which we can support you, our customers. We wanted to make sure you have access to information on the Chancellor’s business support packages.
We are supplying this information as, at present, we are unable to offer any form of payment or deferral break for the services you currently have with Chrome, whether that is telephony, data connectivity, CCTV, maintenance or any related service.
The UK Government has introduced a wide range of packages to help businesses such as yours, and ours, meet obligations particularly with regard to essential business continuity services such as the telecoms and security sector.
Should suppliers such as BT Openreach, TalkTalk Business, Virgin and BT Wholesale agree any business support for the business community, we will pass this on to our customers without delay. In the meantime we would urge you to keep paying your invoices to avoid suspension and disconnection of services.
For more information on the help available, download our COVID-19 business support briefing (PDF).
During this challenging period we are doing our best to keep our people safe and provide the best possible service. We are sure that by working together we can get through this and build stronger businesses in future.
