Good to see the BT share price holding up so strongly in the face of pathetic results. NOT. All caused of course by the press, analysts, and everyone else in the universe - apart from the basket case itself. The business side picking up? Not on your Nelly. False rumour. BT is like the BBC, ready for the knacker's yard. Shame. Exactly why people on here keep saying how wonderful BT t is eludes me. Now heading for 50p a share down from 221p. Yuk. Roll on the bid. If it doesn't come soon, we'll all be in the basket with them.

Many a true word spoken in jest Pip :)

@Csq

Pathetic, brown-nosing git. LOL

Are you Bigtimebilly, Snoopz, or fleccy. Or all three. We should be told. LOL

Aus, see fleccy is having an argument with himself again - with Snoopz. Last week snoop started writing like fleccy again. Stopped since. The other week Big Time Billy was saying what an awful share BT was. Now he's hyping it again. Don't reckon fleccy has much time to see the wife he keeps going on about. Spends night and day on here, using various aliases. Been doing it for year, poor chap. Maybe the moderators are paying him. They should be deleting him for his falsehoods.

You amaze me fleccy. I say this without rancour. The BT dividend was suspended for two years. The share price swings up and down in the last five years, from 99p to £2.45, to under £1.80 now. Inflation was raging and now rising again. The upcoming budget will affect investments and pensions. And still you'e making a profit on your BT shares. The only way any of us is going to make a profit is a bid from Mittal Bros and a hiving off of Openreach to release shareholder value. You continual pie-in-the-sky murmurings are exactly that. Nothing affects you and the wife. You are bullet-proof. Good luck to you anyway, even though you're clearly bonkers. Problem is, some people on here, if they're not all you, appear to actually believe you. More fool them. Roll on the bid.

After the upcoming budget, think your divi take will shrink due to tax.

Reckon he's a union rep or a company brown-loser PRK. Always proclaiming a profit, always proclaiming it will be all right on the night. Invests in three of the stock market's biggest losers - BT, Lloyds and Voda. Then there's Carrington. Always topping up when the price goes down. God knows where he gets the cash. Then all the Guinness-soaked current and ex BT engineers who follow the leader like sheep. Funny old game football :)

As a betting man, I'm betting that the BT financial announcement on Thursday will indicate that the rot in slowing on the connection loss front. The denial a couple of weeks back (by the bird Erik said was a looker) was a bluff. Should see a rise to £2. But then again, I'm a betting man. Always have been. Always will be. LOL

Those were the days Erik. I remember them well. The things that came out of Martlesham were truly amazing. BT used to employ 3000 of the brightest minds in the country there. All given away or lost in the mist of time, thanks to visionless management and continual government interference. Truth is BT still thinks of itself as a telco. Just another utility. Frightened of its own shadow. Shame. Really is. It's a bit like the UK itself. Once proud and strong. Now a shadow of its former self. People are afraid to say a word to each other, in fear of getting a knock the door from the old bill. Shame. Really is. We all know what needs to be done. BT needs urgent life-saving surgery. So does the UK and its people, who are viewed and treated doormats by the deep state.

@ Snoopz

You're beginning to sound, an write, like fleccy. Own up, dear boy :)

Initial Virgin/Starlink rollout in the UK early in 2026 will support Messaging, Maps/location apps, and data-based calls (e.g., WhatsApp), but not pukka mobile voice calls. However that will follow sometime in 2026, they say.

Rival operators Vodafone are exploring partnerships with AST SpaceMobile, suggesting a new wave of satellite-to-mobile competition in Europe.

And what is BT doing? Sweet Fanny Adams. They're so focused on FTTP and DEI they can't tell night from day (or men from women). Blinkered blighters!

@Aus3

We were talking about Starlink just the other week Aus. Yet another opportunity that BT failed to take advantage of. Oh, sorry, I forgot. BT's woes are all down to shorters, the press, analysts, and Uncle Tom Cobbleigh. Anything an everyone, apart a spineless BoD and a greedy, grasping workforce - overpaid BT engineers among them. Funny old game football.

@expat

Starlink supports voice communication through VoIP and its Direct to Cell service. You can use VoIP services like Zoom, Skype, or dedicated VoIP phones over Starlink’s internet connection.

Not open source. Source code (i.e. the font of all knowledge within).

A video posted on the YouTube 'Silver Fox Hot Takes' channel within the past 24 hours might explain the recent volatility of the BT share price. However, might be pure conjecture. Which is why I have not shared the link.

@Pippin

Only bullies prey on those they perceive to be weaker than them. You are not weak Pip. You have more strength and humanity than all of them combined.

@Pip

Do I know you dear chap? Your comment sounds slightly impertinent. But I'll forgive you because you seem like a decent kinda guy. Hope I'm correct :)

Well said fleccy.
