yes they different gripe's but I think he will be happy still
I dont see why, as this doesn't address his own issue. RevK isnt exactly in the pro-split Openreach camp, he also sees that this isnt the solution. His problems are caused because he purchases from wholesale, who in turn purchase from Openreach. Too many layers of complexity.
I've said for well over 18 months or so that an Openreach split isn't logical because of overlap... and afaik I was the first person to say that logically it would make more sense to split off retail. (iirc you called me pro-BT back when dad was still alive, because I didnt say much more than retail was more logical and that splitting off Openreach would be too difficult and only line the pockets off accountants and lawyers and cause too much confusion in the process).
In fact last Dec RevK himself even implied similar -
linkPersonally I am not convinced the logical split we have now is in the right place.
TBH I think much of the split off Openreach is being driven by Sky and TT etc purely for their own benefit rather than that of the consumer. I could imply more but I wont go there.
I cant see why OFCOM doesn't see the logical grounds either... and TBF BT themselves are hardly going to suggest it - they are too tied up fighting their corner against any sort of split.
The LLU based SP's certainly arent going to suggest it as it would put retail more on a level playing field and they wouldn't have an axe to grind about anything that retail does. They wouldn't be able to moan if retail offered cheaper Infinity, nor what they decided to do with TV services.
