Another year, another BT price rise

Further cost pressure in an upwards direction has been seen since the beginning of this year as BT Business has increased PSTN (Analogue) and ISDN-2 line rental, and many call charges from 1st January 2018.

Analogue line rental is up 66p to £24.60/month, ISDN-2e up £2.20 to £56.20/month. BT Business Plan (and variants) and BT Business Call Essentials inland and mobile calls up 1 or 2p/min, set-up up 2p/call. BT Business Plan and Essentials have merged two more international bands leaving just seven, so some countries have increased in price.

This continues a pattern of at least yearly cost increases which means that businesses are likely to be substantially over-paying for traditional services.

Outside of this there are also prospects for organisations to benefit from changing and improved technology beyond the like for like savings opportunity, there is never a better time to conduct a full telecommunications cost review.
