Hello again Sirius,
Long time since I've been around properly
The problem is (after reading through all 20 pages of posts) is that everyone seems to be guessing on what will/might/could happen and nobody really knows, Liberty wouldn't be buying a company like VM and then divulge all their plans to all and sundry especially to idiots like me.
Most VM staff like yourself will have a different slant on the takeover as they will know more and have a better understanding of what has/will and is going to happen.
IMO from what my head tells me it will be a good deal for many reasons for VM customers but we will just have to wait and see
anyway as a long standing happy VM/NTL & Nynex customer I'm just going to sit back watch and learn more on a subject I know little or nothing about, and will just see what happens when it gets reported by yourself or other VM guys on here.
and thanks for your help & advise in the past.
