Magenta Home Page

Please note that Magenta Systems Ltd does not sell or recommend any of these tariffs, you need to contact each company specifically. Magenta Systems simply publishes this price information for comparison purposes. Nor do we take any money from these companies to list their information, it is totally impartial. Sorry, but we can not provide advice about the best tariffs for any individual or company, you must compare the prices and make your own choices.  

Multiple tariff costs are shown for some operators, for others discounted tariff costs are calculated. The spreadsheet version allows the discount costs to be changed for differing spend levels. The level of detail varies between operators, some supply everything, others just the more common tariff costs. The comparison is updated at least 10 times a year, with operator tariffs being checked every three to six months, the better operators inform us of changes monthly, as they happen.  Residential prices all include VAT at 15%, unless otherwise stated. 

Non-Members may view the residential tariffs as web pages, but to download them in spreadsheet format or access the various code tables you need to become a paid member. The business pages look identical to the residential pages, they simply contain different companies and figures. 

Access to the Business Members Site and Residential Members Site requires a logon name and password, which is emailed once the Membership Form on the secure server has been completed and payment received.  Details of information available to Members and the prices is available in the Site Overview.  Business members may view and print the tariffs, numbering and operator information from an Acrobat (PDF) file. 

State of the Industry attempts to give an overview of recent changes, which operators are being taken over, which have ceased offering services and those in financial difficulty.

Site News

30th June 2009 - The UK Telecom Tariff Cost Comparisons web site is moving from the Magenta Systems Ltd domain, to it's own http://www.telecom-tariffs.co.uk/ domain.  Both sites are currently duplicated with the same content, the old site will be dropped in a couple of weeks.  The new site uses a different back end server, which will ease many improvements planned for the next three months.  The only obvious difference at the moment is all pages with ASP URLs are now HTM instead.  For members, the login system has been improved so you will be remembered between visits and will only need to login once instead of separately for different parts of the site.  The main index pages now show if you are logged-in and allow log-off if the PC is shared. Logged-in members now have unrestricted access to Online CodeLook bypassing the daily usage restriction.

ComCap - Magenta Serial Port and Network Capture Utility

ComCap is a Windows application designed to capture any ASCII data received on up to 60 PC serial communications ports and network to text files. ComCap is primarily designed to capture telephone call logging data from the serial port provided on most telephone switching systems (PABXs). The saved data may then be used as input to telephone call management applications that will cost calls and produce reports on telephone usage.
