Call Charges

What is CPS (Carrier Pre-Selection)?

By using CPS your company can save hundreds and even thousands of pounds per year on your normal telephone call charges.

CPS allows you to choose which telecommunications provider you want to carry your voice calls. There is no inconvenience involved with CPS, no autodiallers, manual prefixing or PBX reprogramming; you keep your existing phone numbers and continue to make calls as usual.

Carrier Pre-Selection uses network access technology, so traffic originating from your site will be routed directly to your chosen network with no need for prefix codes. The "selection" of the preferred provider is done automatically at point of entry (the local exchange) to the public voice network.

Certain types of call are not carried via CPS as they are BT services and included in the rental charges. These include calls to emergency numbers, operator assistance, directory enquiries and number ranges used for flat rate Internet access (those starting with 0844 04 or 0808 99). You will continue to have access to these services and any charges will appear on your BT bill.

BT will still own, run and bill for the physical phone line. Your phone number will remain the same and you will simply receive a separate bill from NetConneXion instead of BT (for calls).

What is LCR (Least Cost Routing)?

LCR has been superseded by CPS (see above)

Many businesses continue to pay significantly over the odds for their outbound telephone calls. NetConneXion are already helping thousands of businesses save money on their outbound telephone calls by intelligently routing calls over our own established network.

This means that without changing your existing telephone system, or your existing telephone numbers you can significantly cut the cost of every outbound call you make, freeing up money which your business can utilise to off-set other business overheads.

Besides helping you make serious savings on telephone call costs, we put you in complete control of your expenditure by providing you with a full breakdown of your call costs either by paper invoices or through our brand new e-billing service.

Working with you, we can improve service quality and drive costs down across all aspects of your telecoms expenditure. We can offer highly competitive tariffs, first class service and strategic insights and expertise. We believe this is unique in the marketplace today.
