Re: [asterisk-users] OT: UK PPP certification -- what is it?

They mean PhonePayPlus (formerly ICSTIS). www.phonepayplus.org.uk

I am not aware of them certifying particular phone systems. Rather, they
impose certain requirements and obligations on the service provider
depending on the nature of the service being provided and the number range
it is provided on. 

But maybe more stringent regulations and phone system certification does
apply to certain types of service which I've never had to deal with - adult
stuff, for example - so I'd give them a call if you can't find the info on
their website.

 Subject: [asterisk-users] OT: UK PPP certification -- what is it?
 
 A client asked me to come with a system that will pass certification with
PPP
 in the UK.
 
 Google is not being helpful :(
 
 It has something to do with recording calls in case the PPP requests a
copy.
 Supposedly their rules were relaxed on August 1st if that helps.
 
 Any clues (links?) will be appreciated.

PhonepayPlus are the 'regulator' for premium phone services in the UK
(well they're independent but work with Ofcom the regulator).

It depends on what services you're offering, but the rules are pretty
stringent to stop fraudulent use of PRS numbers and top stop scames etc.
