Wholesale cost of new line

FannyHill

If you join an ISP for phoneline and internet they can charge from about £125 down to about £40 when they have special offers to put in a landline using Openreach to do the physical work.

What do Openreach actually charge the ISP to put in a new line meaning attaching a new line from the tel pole to the customers house ?


Thanks.

AFAICS, it's £88 + VAT.

£55.74 + VAT - http://www.openreach.co.uk/orpg/pricing/loadProductPriceDetails.do?data=6S7cdneo5MHXjXtW0N1DJVQ14hLhaQkFGHrP9FQAi3yZrG2CsSujUDvDlXyfMBml

OK thanks........it's getting better. :j


But remember this is not to switch on a line that is already there it's to go up the tel pole and attach a new line and then attach it to the customers house.

I suppose if your ISP charge you £110 that includes their fee for arranging everything ???????

The Openreach charge is for everything. As long as the total cost to BT is under around £3400 (old Ofcom figure - 1.10 http://www.ofcom.org.uk/consult/condocs/uso/main/) £55.74 + VAT is all BT charge providers.
