Firstly, we hope that you, your family and your teams are safe and well. These are challenging times but rest assured that we’re doing everything we can to make things easier for you and your customers.
We continue to work closely with industry bodies to understand the initiatives which are being introduced as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.
We’ll continue to update you over the coming weeks. If you have any queries or feedback in the meantime, please continue to approach us, we’re here to help as always.
We wrote to you last week to share details of Openreach’s statement, which was drafted in response to the current crisis. If you missed last week’s email, we have extracted key details from the Openreach statement for your benefit – request a copy at partners@9group.co.uk
While we continue to work with Openreach on the detail, we request that Partners hold off from taking any immediate action, until the processes and requirements are fully refined by them.
We are committed to introducing these new initiatives promptly, so that you’re equipped to pass them on to your customers. Following recent discussions, Openreach have been asked to simplify how this will work in practical terms.
We will be back in touch soon to share more information.
We are pleased to advise that there will be no RPI increase to O2 connections in 2020.
Our promise is to stay transparent and to keep you updated as often as we can. I’ll be back in touch with another update soon.
If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch, we’re here to help.
If you would like to have a conversation with me directly, just call 07734 972 566 or email adam.cathcart@9group.co.uk
Stay safe and take care of each other.
Adam Cathcart
Managing Director – 9’s Partner division
