Actually, they're not ... they still need shareholder approval and the transaction won't be complete until probably well into next year.
And even after they are the same company, it does matter, and will do so for years to come. Just have a look around this forum at all the times we need to understand whether a customer is fed from Bromley (ex-CWC) or Langley ('original' NTL). There are significant differences in the two systems that have an impact on how problem-solving advice is given. When everything eventually comes together under one brand (say, for the sake of argument, UK Cable), it will be important to know which areas were CWC, which were NTL and which were Telewest.
