Today’s statement is part of Ofcom’s Fixed Access Market Reviews, a wide-ranging set of decisions in the UK wholesale telecoms markets used by companies to offer telephone and broadband services to consumers.
Following review by the European Commission, Ofcom will implement decisions in the Reviews announced last month, including:
reducing the wholesale charge paid when a consumer changes superfast broadband provider, from £50 to £11. This will allow providers to offer lower retail start-up fees to consumers, helping to promote competition in the growing superfast broadband market; and
cutting the minimum length of the wholesale contract between providers when a customer switches superfast broadband supplier, from a year to one month. This will provide flexibility for telecoms providers to offer shorter retail contracts.
