A very Happy Xmas.
Hopefully we will recover some of our losses in 2009.

Plast,

Did you say proud and Freedom 4 in the same sentence?

Merry Christmas to all the old Pipex and the now FFG holders

Thanks VOB

Thanks VOB, that's very encouraging isn't it. Nice to have a bit of light in the otherwise gloom ridden times we're in.

Press release:



Interesting as it lets 3.6 GHz (which F4C have) talk to 2.5 GHz which won't be auctioned 'till next year. Of course, this all depends on the 3.6 GHz being converted to a mobile license but that decision can't be too far away...

Must be some bad news around

[troys] 06/11/2008 16:14

FREEDOM4 Group plc
(the 'Company')




Purchase of own shares




The Company announces that it purchased 9,800,000 of its Ordinary Shares of 0.1p each ('Ordinary Shares') at a price of 1.80p per share on 13 October 2008.

These shares will be held in Treasury.

This purchase equates to 0.91% of the Company's issued share capital.

For the purposes of the Financial Services Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules, the Company's total issued share capital at the date of this notice is £1,076,006.46 consisting of 1,076,006,457 Ordinary Shares of which 27,100,000 Ordinary Shares are now held as Treasury shares. The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 1,048,906,457.

The above figure of 1,048,906,457 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company, under the Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

It's not WiMAX but F4 has started selling services which might help the balance book a little:



It's a dongle service but using WiFi and 3G rented from other companies. £25 a month for an 18 month contract with a 1GB limit isn't too bad but not the cheapest out there.

More interesting is the fact that the website has dropped a lot of the WiMAX branding - they did say that "marketing should remain low-key until a broader range of services is available" and looks like it is!

I agree to you there with some extent Morro that Investors should certainly be kept up to date. But when say a start up company is trying to save costs then if they can do it without the paper cost all the better. Lol yes guess saying get a life does not help either.

[veryoldbob] 29/9/2008 18:58

If you returned the slip, then it's worth chasing them up. Try emailing the investor address and see if they can correct your records:

I find comments such as 'get a life' offensive. If you want to debate issues in a sensible manner, then do so, and not resort to pathetic cliches.

The issue does not have anything to do with saving company costs, og which incidentally I am all in favour. I did return the request to continue receiving the hard copy. So what it boils down to is a cavalier approach to shareholder requests, which can be said to reflect the management of a company in general.

[jasey] 29/9/2008 09:08

Yeah, get a life Morro!!

[yangou] 28/9/2008 20:55

Oh dear i am sure they are turning in there sleep that they did not ask your permission to have the interim report done for you in an expensive hard copy. Pity on them they must not be thinking hard enough for there investors and more about the company expenses. oops. So the small things like a smal loss here or there does not matter Morro

Sorry Motto but i am in a battling mood tonight. Hell should have written this and sent it out

[veryoldbob] 28/9/2008 16:15

The use of the website to publish documents was voted on (and passed) at the 2007 AGM.

There was a letter sent out in June 2008 confirming this and allowing an opt out:

"At the company's Annual General Meeting held on 12 June 2007, shareholders passed a resolution to allow the company to use its website to publish statutory documents and communications to shareholders, such as the annual report and accounts, as its default method of publication...

However, if you wish to continue to receive hard copies of these communications, you must return the reply slip attached to the bottom of this letter. If you do not return this slip within 28 days from the date of this letter, we will assume that you have consented to website publication of these documents and you will no longer receive hard copies in the post."


If you didn't send the slip back, I'm afraid they assumed consent for website publication.

letter here:

>so it was 1 share ffg for 1 pipex share?

It was 1:1 but there was a tender offer to return some of the sale proceeds and holders could tender 58% of their holding for 10.4p, buying back some 1.5 bn shares which is why there are only 1.07 bn in issue now.

If you held and missed the tender, you have effectively increased your stake due to the reduction in shares, but after the assets were sold off the price naturally fell to reflect the much smaller size of the remaining businesses. In short, if you didn't take up the tender offer, you were royally stuffed...
