£4 price increase - offered Broadband increase FREE

Customer Service phoned me today saying that to make up for the £4 increase I was being charged they would increase my BB from current 10Meg to "XL60" which I assume is 30 due to be doubled. Also a Superhub free delivery and activation. She said "So instead of getting nothing for the increase(£4) I would be getting faster broadband". Is this right or have I been confused by a foreign voice during my quickly running out lunchtime?
I thought only my TV was going up £2!
Bit confused, but accepted 'cos seemed a good deal any way.
Just want clarification from you guys.

Carl,
Are you saying that the £4 is not an increase that I would normally have? What increase can I expect from 1 April 2012?

I thought the £4 you mentioned was the annual April price increase? Mine's gone up £3.50.

Well here it is! I called VM tonight and my April rise will be £4 so the offer of faster BB and free superhub is true. It's free.
