Openreach at £2 a share? Well that depends on how many shares would be issued I presume. It’s only asset is its workforce, but don’t tell Rodders that lol…

Problem is, the globalist billionaires are sat on yachts in Dubai and Monaco and can wait as long or short as they like.. to them everything has a price and only 2 months ago this touched £1. They didn’t strike then, so what are they waiting for?

£1.67

Deleted bit … they take part in races t

ofcom will still apply to bt even in the event of a takeover though. in fact, they’ll probably be worse given that they’re made up of old fogies who are more than likely inherently ******. i think the cwu know they’re fooked once the fttp build is near completion in circa 2 years and at least half of the engineers will depart. a large proportion of them are on 5 year contracts which will run out in 2026.

Rodders, for all your angst at BT/OR, the markets see different. In just over 2 months the SP has gone up circa 40%. The next dividend voted through and free cash flow around £3,000,000,000 in 18 months time according to AK. What’s not to love?

I’m severely ticked off that the heading was “droping”… probably an AimMaster dampsquid lol…

I know I know it’s squib!!

Rodders, BT don’t need to go down redundancy route.. if they offer voluntary paid leaver status then the union cannot intervene. I reckon they will have a series of these at least on the copper side as it shrinks and hope to bag enough engineers to avoid mass redundancy aimho..

Carphone Warehouse promised free broadband back in the day, then merged them into TalkTalk and charged them lol

What 82p share option Asprat?

AIM… it would be if the interest was at todays rates, however it isn’t and the debt level includes lease liabilities on the property portfolio of exchanges which are about to become cash positive as each one closes… not many businesses are in a situation where they are able to close over 3000 properties in many prime locations with no effect on the productivity of the company..and each one wipe out part of the debt pile and add to free cash flow..

Rodders, the only one being an oil tanker ( yes tanker with a T is you lol)… BT has already done a 120 turn and by the end of year a full 180…

I’m hearing from the lads and lassies whom frequent my establishment near Martlesham for a swift libation on the way home that heavy copper cable recovery has been underway in Cornwall and Devon for some time and close to completion, alongside the first 100 exchanges ( major switching centres first) starting in 6 months time.

2025 will be a positive news filled annus from an SP perspective possibly month on month as historic achievements are rolled out celebrating milestone after milestone on the FTTP front as BT on its own will have more customers connected to their network than all the others combined. In fact that milestone will probably be achieved Q3 this year.

As the exchange’s close one by one or ten by ten each exchange liability will be another notch off the debt pile and the cash raised from the sale added to the profit column and to the free cash flow amount…(every exchange closed is sold off by Telereal estate and the overall profits of each transaction is split 50/50). Now that’s real Free Cash Flow…

That free cash will be pouring into the coffers well into the 2030’s as will the rest of the copper recovery.

Yes it’s jam tomorrow, but that magic 2026 figure for the FTTP roll out doesn’t seem so far away and they have already hit peak CAPEX on 5G and FTTP.

Then consider the EV charging project.. turning around 65,000 powered cabinets into charging stations pushed by a Labour government who will lower local planning laws to get them done.

I’m sure by 2030 BT will be rebranded, in fact it’s already been rebranded in part to EE for the retail arm.

I’m sure it will be something wacky with Tech jargon, I just hope they find use the same idiot that come up with Openreach it’s such a mouthful when you’re angry and trying to argue with an off shore peasant about your broadband.

The AimMaster slayer…

All hail Velo … hip hip hoorah!!

@Phat, have you forgotten the Equinox2 deal recently given the nod from OFCOM for the next 10 years to allow BT to recover their upgrade costs to the FTTP network?

Giving their “advice” lol erm like polo tang, their advice was full of holes lol

I bet they’re feeling quite the fool now lol…

Erm…No lol.

C-….must try harder!

give it a fecking rest will you you ****

I got in at 10p out at £1.14… so it’s Charlie at mine lol come round the back door and knock twice ( thumps up emoji and be quite)

Hang on pal… you made 80k yourself lol

Ok ok you shoved it into Evraz for the dividend but unfortunately Putin decided you ain’t having any of it lol..

I reckon Iluvrawfish is Putins alter ego LMOA..
