This service also fits well with the OFT objectives in 2005:

In 2005 manufacturers gave undertakings to the OFT which were to:

• open up access to the market for more franking machine suppliers with better price information for customers about the cost of franking machines and their maintenance.
• allow a greater choice of after sales services and maintenance suppliers by removing restrictions on third party supply of maintenance services and by making it easier to become an authorised third party maintainer and inspector.
• increase scope for third party supply of new and second-hand franking machines. remove some restrictions on independent supply of ink cartridges allowing a greater choice of ink cartridge suppliers.

The Office of fair trading recently wrote to us quoting:

" It is pleasing to hear to hear that you are working to offer more choice and lower prices. Of course we recognise that it is a niche market and we cannot therefore expect change to happen overnight. Also, especially given the markedly lower prices and running costs you offer, you can expect Neopost and Pitney Bowes to target your current and prospective customers quite aggressively in order to try to secure/retain their business - and maybe to reduce their own prices.."
