Telecommunications Section Tariffs.

Call Charges

The Telecommunications Section initially pays for all call charges raised on outgoing lines. The University's Call Logger lists details of all call charges for calls made out of network, and these details are used to invoice users and to provide them with adequate information concerning the cost and nature of those calls. We use two main carriers who are:

  • NTL for all inland and international calls
  • BT for all operator services and as back-up should the other carrier's lines fail
Our call charges are based on tariffs negotiated with NTL by the consortium of University Purchasing Officers. They include a small margin to fund contingency reserves and network improvements. The charges were revised on 1st July 2009.
