That being the case I was wondering if a few "BT protect our share price" or similar banners would not go amiss in the same anti-phorm crowd. It could certainly grab the attention of a portion of the BT visitors to the centre and may provoke extra interest as to why this would be the case.

I asked Emma if the shareholders had been inphormed on the technology phorm uses and what phorm does, the reply I got was not what i expected since the shareholders stand a chance to lose money from any fool hardy ideas BT management have. She said that BT carries out too many trials to tell shareholders of each one. I felt this one was so more the type ecery shareholder should have been given the chance to request more information.
As a shareholder myself I feel you cannot hold them to blame since thye have been told nothing about it until it hits the news, any that are not technical might stil not know anything about it.
Personally BT have failed the shareholders the retail CEO has brought the company into an area of disrepute MPO if there is a vote of no confidance in the people who alowed this I would have to vote I have none in them.
They have brought distrust from customers placing the company in a very awkward position share prices have been droping and BT are buying in as fast as they can wouls seem like a companny trying to stop the free fall something that dumping the excess bagage ( phorm) would stop. Looking at the graph for Phorm and BT they go up and down almost together.
Ok rant over as a BT shareholder who has seen both sides of CEO at BT Ben and Ian.w Ben is worth 40 Ian's as he was much more approachable than Ian. He was a man respected who never deleted emails without reading and always replied sad to say Ian seems to have a lot to learn on how to earn respect.
