Opal Calls For Openreach Investigation

Posted: 10th Feb, 2006 By: MarkJ
Opal Telecom (Carphone Warehouse) has called on Ofcom to resolve a dispute it has with BT's new 'Openreach' division. The operator has concerns with the rate charged for the bulk migration of fully unbundled lines:

According to the investigation, which was opened on 3 February: "Opal has claimed that the refusal by Openreach to extend the offer rate of £20 per customer line (offered for migration in bulk of customer lines to 'shared' loops, or 'shared bulk migration') to full MPF is discriminatory, in contravention of Openreach's obligations under its Significant Market Power Conditions, set following Ofcom's review of the wholesale local access market. Following failure to resolve the matter through commercial negotiation, Opal has referred the matter to Ofcom for resolution."
