T-Mobile is owned by Deutsche Telecom.
121 (before it was renamed) was 50% owned by C&W.

195 - Disabled directory enquiries ?
It could be that T-Mobile buy-in that service from C&W.. - its probably
cheaper than providing it themselves

Yanks? If Cable & Wireless was any more British all their phones would have
to come with a compulsory Rule Britannia ringtone.

No, haven't done too well recently, but have been sitting on a medium
size mountain of cash (>1 billion I think), so not only did they buy
Bulldog outright but also purchased a serious lump of monaco Telecom.
You may also have missed their purchase about a year or so ago of
Guernsey Telecom
Rumour has it they are on the look out for otyher things to buy - Colt
and Kingston have been mentioned.

I think you will find:
1. C&W sold One 2 One to some German outfit just before the bidding
for the 3G licences happened to some German(?) outfit who renamed it
T-Mobile.
2. C&W has always been British and is still British. It was at one
time, before privatisation, known as the overseas arm of the GPO.

About £1.7Bn IIRC - then again, two years ago it was £3.5Bn (!)
Rumour has it they are on the look out for otyher things to buy - Colt
COLT's 51% owned by Fidelity IIRC & just about to start making money -
unlikely they'd bail out now (but I might be wrong!). Don't Hull city
Council still have a golden share in KC?
