Regulation Ready: What UK Contact Centres Need to Know in 2026

2026 brings a significant shift in the regulatory environment for UK contact centres - and if you run an outbound operation in a regulated sector, several of those changes are already live.

PECR fines have increased 35 times, to a maximum of £17.5 million. FCA Consumer Duty enforcement is active, with regulators now asking for data evidence of good customer outcomes - not just policies. EU AI Act transparency obligations arrive in August 2026. And UK carriers are automatically blocking CLIs they flag as nuisance, with no formal process and no appeal.

This webinar is your 45-minute guide to all of it - clear, practical, and built around what contact centre leaders need to know and do.
