"Television and wifi cost"

About: King's College Hospital (Denmark Hill)

(as the patient),

Hello,

Having been admitted to hospital for a 3 month stay I decided to investigate the prospect of TV to find out the minimum package was £4 a day. I would be looking at £372 for my stay which is over double an entire year's TV licence! To pay to watch some channels I had already paid for (BBC) on my own home TV Licence. Next the Broadband/WIFI was 35 Pounds for 1 month for three devices which is poor. also seeing that most hotels now give it away free as the delivery costs are so low and small. I have to say I think its appalling the TV costs, it seems to somewhat be taking advantage of people trapped in a situation which they cannot escape.

I would understand if it was £4 a day for someone staying three days at most but just a flat rate with no packages for long term patients is disgraceful
