They cannot operate out of their own franchises (except with ADSL but then the choice of ADSL providors is huge anyway)

The best they can hope for is to be bought out by Virgin.
Right..Okay

From what I understand they do seem to be a bit more clued up than Virgin are. I got offered a job at their CS centre and met the operations guy and their plans were all very realistic.

I turned the job down mind as it would have meant a drop of 5k a year
