Service provider

<communications> An organisation that provides a service by telephone, such as an 0800 (toll free) number.

The service provider buys the services of a telecom supplier (e.g. BT) but advertises the service and deals with the calls itself. Increasingly, service providers are now also managing their advanced call-routing.
