No. 17/06/2005
Complaint from Gamma Telecom Limited against BT Wholesale about reduced rates for Wholesale Calls from 1 December 2004
Ofcom has concluded that British Telecommunications Group plc (BT) has not infringed Section 18 (the Chapter II prohibition) of the Competition Act 1998 or Article 82 of the EC Treaty in relation to revised pricing, effective from 1 December 2004, of BT's Wholesale Calls Product (BT's revised wholesale call tariff structure).
Ofcom's decision is made following an investigation which was opened because of a complaint from Gamma Telecom Limited (Gamma) that BT's revised wholesale call tariff structure represents an anti-competitive margin squeeze.
The decision sets out in detail Ofcom's finding that under a range of assumptions and scenarios, there is no margin squeeze in respect of BT's revised wholesale call tariff structure and, therefore, there are no grounds for action.
