Title: It appears that the Co-Op is about to enter the mobile phone market
Post by: mobileman on February 17, 2014, 10:42:36 AM

It appears that the Co-Op is about to enter the mobile phone market.  See:-   here (http://www.talkingretail.com/category-news/supermarket/co-operative-launch-pay-go-sim-card/).  ;)

A cynical comment about it's nature can be viewed here (http://groups.google.com/group/uk.telecom.mobile/t/6e642f9be2ada625?hl=en-GB).   ::)

I quote it for amusement:-

"...apparently it has a special top up mode whereby half the money you put on the SIM immediately disappears, a bit like it did for their bond holders!"     ;D

Details about the Co-Op's finances, and regulatory moves concerning them, are shown here (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/investing/10186333/Youre-impoverishing-thousands-of-pensioners-Co-ops-regulator-told.html),  ;)
