Bulldog snapping at BT again

First it was on, then off, and now Bulldog has said it will resubmit it's complaint over fault repair times.

Last week the Office of the Telecommunications Adjudicator (OTA) announced that the dispute was withdrawn by Bulldog "due to significant progress having been made on the BT LLU (local loop unbundling) Fault Repair Terms and Conditions".

The complaint however contained three parts, with two of the three parts being withdrawn by Bulldog owners Cable & Wireless because BT has agreed to provide new customer care levels, The third part however it intends to resubmit To the OTA.

"Bulldog requested three new fault care levels, two of which would provide parity with BT's wholesale broadband products, and the third of which would provide parity with BT's PPC (partial private circuits). BT has now agreed to provide the two new care levels providing parity with its two wholesale broadband products. It has not agreed to provide the third care level (ie parity with PPCs)."
"Bulldog has withdrawn the dispute, as two of the three issues have been resolved, and is planning to resubmit the dispute on the third point,"
Cable & Wireless statement

BT believes that it is doing all it can he help LLU, especially in terms of the treatment of fault repairs, and thinks Bulldog has it all wrong.

 "BT has demonstrated to Bulldog that it definitely does not discriminate against its Wholesale customers. BT has also said that it is reasonable for Bulldog to request a new product.
"BT believes that it would be appropriate for Bulldog to continue with the facilitation offered by the OTA to achieve the new product, rather than to go to dispute. As a result the dispute has been withdrawn,"
