Hello,

What is the current state of play of BT buying up Plusnet and are there likely
to be forced chages of email addresses with the merger?

It was only certain parts of the media guessing that it was BT looking to
buy Plusnet.
If it was for definate, it'd have been announced via the LSE RNS - not via
some Fleet Street rag ;o)

" Plusnet did not confirm the identity of the mystery bidder, but the
Independent newspaper, quoting industry sources, said BT Group Plc was in
early stage talks to buy PlusNet. Both BT and PlusNet declined to comment.
"

My comment (above) still stands.

You might want to go read up on the LSE RNS reporting process.
