Interconnect Notification (Ref: 06052)
BT would like to announce some changes we have made to both the Carrier Price List (CPL) and the Service Provider Price List.
The changes should make it easier and quicker to view online updates when we change our prices.
Carrier Price List made easier
Historical pricing information has been transferred to the Previous Price Lists area of the CPL website, leaving only the latest and last preceding price changes in the main CPL sections.
Customers are not required to take any action as all the transfer work will be carried out internally by Wholesale.
The move follows feedback from a sample of customers who said that the CPL contained an excessive amount of historical pricing information, making it difficult to find the latest and most relevant prices.
