Ofcom has now closed this case and BT will have to pay termination charges to the various operators for the periods in dispute up to 27th March 2007.

On 27 March 2007, Ofcom published a statement concluding a market review into mobile call termination charges.

Ofcom determined that there would be no distinction to voice call termination whether on 2G or 3G networks for 4 years from 1 April 2007 (i.e. until 2011 when a further review may take place).

So the operators will gain some fees, but not as much as they'd hoped for.
