Telecom regulator Ofcom have today shaken the market up with new proposals that will make it cheaper for us to call mobiles. It has proposed cutting the cost mobile phone firms can charge for connecting a call from another network from 4.3 pence per minute to 0.5p by 2015. Better still, mobile termination rates are set to be slashed and it is going to be easier to switch networks.
Ofcom research shows that 70% of customers want to keep their mobile number when they change providers. For this you need a PAC code, and up until now that has been known to take weeks. Under the new rules, mobile phone companies will have to issue PAC codes within a maximum two hour period.
There is more choice for consumers in the mobile market than ever before. The proposals will also mean that both landline and mobile operators have more flexibility in designing competitive call packages, promoting competition for the benefit of consumers.
