    Personally I hope Pipex/Tiscali do go down, it's probably the only way to stop them hounding us for payment of a telephone service we have never had !

    Carphone Warehouse are now sniffing around again, as Tiscali's real value drops and their debt gets bigger.

    And it looks like they've done the deal now too... I should have left when I had the chance! :rotfl:

    Email from Pipex half an hour ago:
    We are pleased to inform you that Tiscali Group has today reached an agreement with TalkTalk (the wholly owned subsidiary of Carphone Warehouse Group PLC) for the sale of Tiscali's UK operations (this includes the brands Pipex, Nildram and Freedom2Surf) to TalkTalk. The agreement is expected to complete in the next few weeks.

    It also contains a link for more information and answers to typical questions

    The link doesn't work

    Not a promising start
