(asked on 29th November 2017) - View Source
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what discussions she has had with BT on charges to landline customers who phone mobile numbers.
This question was answered on 7th December 2017
Ministers and officials hold regular discussions with BT on a range of issues including charges. The charges that BT makes to consumers for calling mobile telephones arise because BT has to pay the mobile company for the call. This is called the termination rate. Under Ofcom regulations, mobile termination rates have been capped by reference to a single flat rate since May 2015.
