Oh right, and which similarly-sized company has BT just bought that it might find itself doing that then?

Aside from the fact that your analogy is plain nonsense, what you're suggesting is utterly impossible, for a great many reasons - not least because it would be illegal to plan a merger to that depth without announcing it to the stock exchange.

You are just going to have to be a little bit patient. You are not paying any more for your service now than you were before the merger, so you haven't lost out. I don't see what you have to be angry about. For all you know, when they do manage to consolidate the services, the Telewest customers will end up paying the same as you, instead of you getting a discount.
