Story: Bulldog pulling out of residential broadband

Luckily, I was advising people to not touch Bulldog since they started. I also asked OFCOM to look into the licences given to C&W. C&W have an apalling record in the UK. Remember "Mercury"? That made major losses before being renamed 1-2-1 which also made big losses. What about C&W TV and landlines? They did exactly the same and now we have Bulldog. C&W treat the UK as they would a US market. High pressure sales, mass marketing costing many millions and then they cease trading and the customer always loses out. As US companies have proven, for many years, that they can't trade honestly and fairly, nor understand the UK consumer, we should have a total ban on US Corporations trading here, especially the likes of C&W who wouldn't cable an estae in Deptford because many refugees / asylum seekers / unemployed residents live there.
