Now, the Competition Commission has said, the cap should be 0.67p in 2013 — bringing the sharp drop a year forward — and 0.65p in 2014. However, MTRs are just part of the cost of calling a mobile phone from a landline, so it is not a sure thing that the...

View Photo »Ofcom is missing a huge opportunity for the UK to address the imbalance in sub-1GHz spectrum holdings, which has damaged consumer interests for the past 20 years - and is a situation which is now threatening to continue
The auction could have taken place in 2010 but this government decided not to give Ofcom the backup to go ahead with the sale of 4G
Ofcom has taken the decision to investigate comments by Jeremy Clarkson on BBC's The One Show. We will make the outcome of the investigation known in due course.
Considering the seriousness of the breaches and with regard to Ofcom's penalty guidelines, Ofcom decided to impose a financial penalty of Ł100,000 and to direct the licensee not to repeat the material found in breach on any future occasion.
Ofcom do research every year asking if there is too much swearing on TV. And every year, more than 50 per cent of the viewers say there is too much
Independent analysts say Ofcom is under mounting pressure from the British royal family to silence Press TV's critical voice. The British royal family exercises an overarching power over all branches in the political system of the country, including the government and the parliament, as well as on Ofcom...

It is a matter for Ofcom to decide what penalties should be imposed. The government is not part of that decision.
Ofcom's decision to re-consult reflects the very real concerns we and other stakeholders have about the March consultation.
Given that the community radio sector is now relatively mature, Ofcom does not intend to publish an annual report of this type for 2011/12. However, all relevant stations will still be required to submit an annual report as part of their demonstration of compliance with licence and other statutory requi...
To have that extra hint from Ofcom is helpful and should allow us to continue the dialog ... We need the few that lag behind to catch up.
You would expect us to be more impatient than Ofcom
This report highlights the importance of checking more than price when buying broadband. Do your homework and compare package features on an Ofcom-accredited price comparison site.
Ofcom expects the singers to appear dressed in a way that their bodies are properly covered and there is nothing offensive
If Ofcom though that in the future [...] innovation was under threat from traffic management... then Ofcom could use its powers to impose minimum quality of service levels on ISPs
Ofcom hopes that this research will both incentivise providers to improve all aspects of their customer service, as well as giving consumers valuable information about the standards of customer service when choosing a provider
Ofcom’s current view is that it should be able to rely on the operation of market forces to address this issue, since historic attempts to restrict internet access to ‘walled gardens’ have not proved to be sustainable in the face of competition from open services.
It currently does not go far enough and needs to be made clearer and easier to understand. If improvements are not made, Ofcom may use its powers to introduce a minimum level of consumer information
We note that Ofcom would like to see a more creative approach to the delivery of information in a clear and understandable manner and feel that the self-regulatory process will be able to meet this challenge
If Ofcom thought in the future that this innovation was under threat from traffic management -- for example by leaving insufficient network capacity for some services -- then Ofcom could use its powers to impose minimum quality of service levels on ISPs
Although Ofcom may be threatening to step in and issue specific regulation if transparency doesn't improve, it is difficult to see them going forward with this based on ISP behaviour alone, but they may be required to do so if mandated at a European level
How ISPs control access to the internet affects us all and it is important that we are able to understand how our access might be restricted. Ofcom is now looking to the ISPs to ensure that transparent information is available, and will consider intervening if it does not see improvements
then Ofcom could use its powers to impose minimum quality of service levels
Ofcom is now looking to the ISPs to ensure that transparent information is available, and will look to intervene if it does not see improvements.
If improvements are not made, Ofcom may use its powers to introduce a minimum level of consumer information under the revised European framework
