> Use an operator that has it's own number blocks and isn't affected.
any idea who? .. at some point you have to go through a BT circuit, I
thought. Everyone is effected by this surely?
BT are one of the telecoms providers in the UK, they are the biggest
admittedly. Many operators can provide number blocks (Ofcom publish the
allocations), if they have their own network - they don't necessarily go
through BT at all.
Thats just being confusing. Yes, it is quite true that you could for example
go to Cable and Wireless, get PRS numbers from them, and they could offer
you a higher payout from calls that only route on their network. But in
practice they wouldnt do it for you, and as the vast majority of PRS traffic
either originates or transits (90%+) the BT network, would you really want
to rule out most of your customers?
Maybe you misunderstand, the 'bad debt surcharge' (of 3%) is applied to all
PRS traffic that gets switched via BT, whether they are BT number blocks or
ones belonging to other OLOs.
