Residential Telephone Tariffs
Packages

Tariffs Version 124 - 30th June 2008
Not for commercial publication or use.


Comparisons of the residential telephone tariffs charged by various operators and resellers in the United Kingdom.

Note: all prices are inclusive of VAT at 17.5%. Call charges are pence per minute or per call, package and line charges are pounds sterling per month.

This table ony includes operators and resellers that offer monthly or quarterly billing, mostly without needing to dial any codes
It excludes operators offering pre-paid or two stage (call through) services and VoIP (unless calls are packaged).
Same Op Calls is where free calls are allowed to other customers of the same operator
Some operators include a package cost with their own line rental, the monthly cost combines whatever is paid to the operator and BT (if CPS used)
Connection Per Call only applies to calls charged per minute.
Line rental prices have been adjusted to exclude paper billing, with this cost shown in a separate column
Where bills are payable to both BT and the provider, Paper Bill and Non Direct Debit are for BT only
A zero Paper Bill and/or Not Direct Debit cost means there is no extra cost for these, blank means unknown or online billing or direct debit only (which is all that most newer operators offer)
This table is sorted by monthly line rental paid by direct debit but without a paper bill, since that is all may operators now offer
