Wholesale's pricing of DataStream Customer Access Link
Complainant:
Thus
Complaint against: BT
Case opened: 4 February 2003
Case closed: 3 April 2003
Issue: Pricing of BT's DataStream Customer Access Link
Relevant Instrument: Chapter II of the Competition Act
1998 (abuse of a dominant position)
Thus alleged
that BT was selling its DataStream Customer Access Link (CAL)
product below the cost of an equivalent partial private circuit,
implying that the product must be cross-subsidised. Thus claimed
that this would result in margin squeeze if Thus wished to sell
a DataStream based service to an ISP in competition with BT Wholesale.
Following
new information Thus has withdrawn this complaint, in order to
submit a revised complaint on the same subject. Accordingly Oftel
has closed this case.
