Share volume and price has shot up today. I wonder if someone is preparing a bid for Plusnet.

I can't see that happening, Plusnet lambasted Tiscali only last month, its obvious the relationship they hoped to have didn't exactly go well due to all the blame being shifted towards them.

I certainly can see Plusnet stopping selling broadband as Plusnet though and delivering it as force9, because force9 have nowhere near as bad a reputation as Plusnet do........

Didnt' they use Tiscali once before, yet they still haven't learned. It seems learning from mistakes just isn't a skill of plusnet.

No, its pretty obvious that plusnet management doesn't make mistakes and everything is done to a specific plan, regardless of how stupid or lacking in vision it is.

Have a look here :

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/rr?s=PNT.L

Reuters investment report on Plusnet made available 13th September - share price rises the next day - starts to make sense no?

Not having access to the report I cannot say why the shares would rise - anyone got a copy as it must be fairly promising?

Regards,
Alex.

Plusnet 8mb PAYG Broadband - bring it on!
Linksys WAG354G - do it wirelessly!
