How we're implementing the Final Pricing Principle
We want to keep you informed on the Final Pricing Principle (FPP) recurring price changes for Year 2.
What's happening?
The Commerce Commission’s FPP decisions, set annual price changes to the recurring charges for UCLL, UCLFS, SLU and UBA copper services. These prices flow through to our Handover and Baseband commercial products, and are effective from 16 December 2016.
What's the detail?
Changes to the FPP recurring charges will likely be applied on bills from 16 December 2016. We’ll then capture in-flight orders over subsequent months. There will be no structural change to the format of your bill. Only price points are changing for the services below.
