Mercury was the first competitor to BT, gaining indirect access interconnect with BT in 1985, when it was able to launch services to the residential market. To simplify connecting to the Mercury network, special phones were marketed by Mercury themselves to their customers and display their distinctive logo. Such phones fell out of favour after 1992 when single stage indirect access interconnection was introduced allowing the customer to prefix the number by 132 to access the Mercury Network.
