We are the UK regulator for content, goods and services charged to a phone bill.

We're extending the consultation on proposed changes on service registration

14 May 2018

In January 2018, we launched a consultation on new information we want to require when you register a phone-paid service.

Since then we’ve had several informal discussions with different parties in the value chain and received 15 official responses to our consultation, encompassing a wide range of views.

Because of the complexity of proposed changes to registration, we want to extend the consultation period to 19 July so that we:
•    can clarify what these proposed changes are about (they’re all under section 3 here)
•    deliver workshops to industry members that will go through all details on proposed changes and get your views (see below more details on the workshop)
•    receive as many responses as possible from all industry members.

As part of extending the consultation period, we are hosting two identical workshops (27 & 28 June) for service providers to understand the proposed changes and collectively respond to this consultation.

Agenda:
•    Presentation of a prototype of new online registration forms              
•    Collective discussion on the detail presented, including input into the practicalities and possible implications
•    Presentation and discussion on how a pro-active and supportive approach to registration will work in practice
•    A legal overview of how we will apply fair and proportionate regulation to possible registration breaches
