Free , value added and non-geographic numbers

Länsilinkki offers operators a range of free (0800), value added (0600, 0700) and non-geographic number solutions. Solutions can be based on ported numbers and are independent of the physical location of the caller and the service provider.

• Länsilinkki is responsible for traffic management, consumer pricing and call charge clearing between operators.
• Operators are responsible of customer relations with service providers. 

Länsilinkkis clearing service manages the call charges and access- and terminal fees between interconnected operators. Länsilinkki will provide each operator monthly a single clearing invoice summarizing all the call charges, fees and compensations towards all other operators.

This single clearing invoice replaces bilateral invoicing towards each single operator - in Finland there are more than 20 operators. This significantly reduces labour costs and reduces the amount of money bound in the clearing process.

Call pricing in the Finnish telecom network require complex number processing due to free pricing of value added numbers, porting of numbers and use of access priced calls. Because Finnish call charges are based in charging pulses on many call types they are not easily processed in all ERPs.

This data can be fed to Länsilinkkis Call pricing process that produces monthly ready made call price data rows to each subscriber and call type to be used by operators for their subscriber billing processes.
