The One Touch Switching Company<\/a> (TOTSCo), which is the industry-led company responsible for delivering Ofcom<\/a>’s process – One Touch Switching<\/strong><\/a> (OTS) – for quicker and easier UK switching (migration) between home broadband and phone providers, has today set out details of how they plan to improve the system’s performance and monitoring.<\/p>\n

The system, which first went live on 12th September 2024, remains a Gaining Provider Led<\/strong> (GPL) process, where the customer contacts their new (\u201cgaining<\/em>\u201c) ISP to start and manage the process on their behalf. But after a bit of a bumpy start and some ongoing issues, the new system is already helping around 1.8 million consumers to switch ISP every year and is also in the process of being extended to business connections (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Ofcom<\/a> states that all communications providers switching a UK residential customer\u2019s Internet Access Service and\/or Number-based Interpersonal Communications Service, which is provided at a fixed location, are in scope of their OTS rules, and must follow the OTS process.<\/div>\n

“OTS has been in place for 18 months now and we believe it is working well for consumers and providers. However, as OTS continues to mature, we believe there are still opportunities for improvement<\/em>,” said the latest update<\/a> from TOTSCo.<\/p>\n

As part of the new push, TOTSCo says they’ve identified several areas which could “lead to a poor switching experience and\/or consumer harm<\/em>” and are keen to help service providers improve these. First on the list is the need to improve their Hub match success rates (switch match success rates<\/a>), which currently still average around 63% (i.e. some switch attempts fail first time around due to details that don’t match).<\/p>\n

On top of that they’ve also identified problems where some switching messages accepted by the messaging Hub are “not successfully delivered because they either time out or are rejected by the recipient<\/em>“, although this issue is said to be low in volume.<\/p>\n

In addition, TOTSCo found some switch orders are not being responded to in a timely fashion, which may delay cessation of the old service and can sometimes also cause double billing issues between the gaining and losing ISPs (the OTS rules forbid this).<\/p>\n

The fourth issue identified is that some internet and phone providers fail to respond when issues are raised with them (effectively flouting the rules and hoping Ofcom<\/a> won’t take action) and this can, in turn, cause the issues to persist for longer.<\/p>\n

TOTSCo’s Proposed Approach for Improvements<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In response, we propose to take the following approach for TOTSCo\u2019s areas of focus:<\/p>\n

1. Improve and expand TOTSCo current performance and monitoring information<\/strong><\/p>\n

We will enhance the information we currently publish under \u2018Residential Trends and Insights\u2019 on our website and share more detail on M&I activities at our monthly Stakeholder Forum.<\/p>\n

Additional information we intend to publish includes:<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Greater visibility of variation in match success rate e.g. anonymised top and bottom performers, quartiles, highest observed match success rate, and trend information.<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Exploration of a \u201ccustomer\u201d or \u201csession\u201d match rate, to better reflect the customer switching experience. As this data is held by providers, we will seek views on whether anonymised data could be shared.<\/p>\n

2. Support individual providers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u27a4 Continue direct engagement with providers.<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Introduce Service Review Meetings to discuss performance and share best practice.<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Facilitate bilateral meetings with highest volume providers to improve the corresponding bilateral match-success rates.<\/p>\n

3. Make a provider-specific report available<\/strong><\/p>\n

We will develop a monthly provider-specific report enabling providers to:<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Compare their gaining and losing match success rates against industry benchmarks<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Track trends over time<\/p>\n

\u27a4 Review failed messages and non-response metrics and compare against industry benchmarks.<\/p>\n

4. Assess industry interest in outage notification approach<\/strong><\/p>\n

We also welcome industry views on outage notifications. The outage calendar is currently used by providers to report planned outages. We are keen to understand whether there are circumstances in which TOTSCo should proactively publish information about any unnotified outage of a provider\u2019s OTS messaging system, e.g. where an outage exceeds a certain duration and\/or where providers are unresponsive to TOTSCo\u2019s requests for information.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

TOTSCO said they’re “confident<\/em>” that the proposed activities can be delivered within their existing budget, although they do warn that this “may change if the scope of our activities expands significantly<\/em>“. For some smaller ISPs and resellers with low margins per connection, the cost of implementing TOTSCo can already be problematic.<\/p>\n

The company plans to consult on all this until 7th April 2026, although it’s worth noting that they also identified some areas which need to be addressed, but where the issues appear to fall outside TOTSCo’s remit to tackle (i.e. in many cases these may be issues that Ofcom need to review and tackle directly). We’ve listed these areas below:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Leakage – Providers are offering non-OTS switching journeys where a successful match cannot be obtained.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Non-participation \u2013 Providers are not on the live directory and are therefore unable to offer OTS journeys.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Quality and timeliness of switching information.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Quality of contractual information.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
