Dutch court overturns ACM decision on termination rate cuts
2013-08-27 12:22:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The Dutch corporate appeals court (CBb) has overturned regulator ACM's decision to lower fixed and mobile termination rates. The ACM earlier this month confirmed the cut in rates from 01 September, prompting court appeals from KPN, Vodafone and T-Mobile, Tele2 and a group including UPC, Ziggo, Verizon, Esprit and BT. The court imposed new tariff caps of 1.861 eurocents per minute for mobile and 0.302 cents per minute for fixed. These will apply as an interim measure, until it gives a final ruling on the case. The main issue to be examined is the use of the Pure Bulric or Bulric Plus methodology in calculating the rates, the same as when the previous round of termination rate cuts ended up in court. In a first reaction, the ACM called the decision bad for consumers and businesses, who pay the bills in the end. The ACM decision would have seen rates fall from 2.4 cents to 1.019 cents per minute for mobile termination and from 0.370 cents to 0.108 cents per minute for fixed. These would apply from three years.

ACM lowers fixed, mobile termination rates
2013-04-16 09:06:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The Dutch Consumer & Market Authority (ACM) has set the rates for fixed and mobile calls. The rate that operators may charge for delivering calls to a mobile network will drop to 1.017 eurocents from 2.4 per minute. For calls to fixed lines, termination rates will decrease to 0.108 cents from 0.37 per minute. All rates exclude VAT. The rate changes will go into effect from 1 September 2013 and be valid for an initial three years. The market decision will be under consultation until 27 May; it will then go to the European Commission for notification. The maximum rate is, in line with European rules, based on the pure BULRIC cost methodology, which the Commission feels best reflects underlying service costs. The continued reduction in call termination rates will lead to a fall in revenue for fixed and mobile operators.
