Nice rises Friday and today,after being tipped up by Money Week magazine ,with first half sales up 86%,and a cheaper Broadband bundle than Car Phone warehouse,a forward p/e of 15.4 and a likely takeover target seems the one to be on in a guarateed consolidating sector.

gbrown100---------I have bought and sold these several times from an sp as low as 4.84p and have done extremely well from them, my last purchase was @ -12p. I've not seen too much comment recently re wi-max, but I do believe it will prove profitable over time, patience is required for wi-max. However the prospect of a takeover is always a possibility, I see Demon has been put up for sale by Thus, I have no idea how Demon compares to PXC but the major telco's have been active in this area, and PXC would give critical mass + the licence for wi-max. On top of this PXC are bedding down their own recent acquisitions. --------- I would never buy for purely t/o rumours.

come on pxc 16-24 pm imho

Just taking a look at PXC on the back of the quite positive article in Shares. Surprised to see no comment. Wireless field looks interesting with first commercial moves in next six months? Difficult to evaluate potential - any thoughts?

i held this share for quite a while, ultimately got very bored and tookm my modest profit ..... however, having now experienced at first hand their appalling customer service, i have no intention of venturing back in, for assuredly such incompetence is a reflection of the management

I'm just waiting for the next spike before getting out..

Thanks, cynic - I know you are an honest man being a golfer!

cynic - LOL. I'm sure Pipex will miss you. Dubens is shrewd, managment solid.
Bored traders never make real money. Happily, spivs usually prefer such notables as EVS, SEO and the like.
PXC has been a perfect trading share for several years but also offers long term investor possibilities.

Dubens may be shrewd, but believe me, the attitude and competence of those at the coal-face is a reflection of the management ...... imo, this share is not be bought on fundamentals

I would agree that Pipex have real issues with their support and customer services. They seem to be having difficulty in fully integrating all of the companies that they have purchased. I am both hearing and experiencing this a lot and yet so far their subscriber figures seem to be going from strength to strength - I assume that this is mainly due to the acquistions.

I would tend to agree zscrooge.

Having a good day--------so far.

if the fundamentals to not stack up, then share should prob not be bought at all ...... old adage that one never buys a share just on t/o possibilites

UBS took another 31.7 million shares, what do they know that we don't !
can see these over 14p this week

watched go up before, and then come all the way back down again ..... PXC ought to be a t/o target, but nothing ever seems to materialise ..... this has been the case for at least the last 2 years

Been in and out of these several times over the last 3-4 years netting a decent profit on the way, I finally got bored with my holding on friday and sold, the proceeds I put into APN @ <11p, atm it's looking a good move. Good luck to PXC holders I may re-visit if an opportunity arises.

This stock is in a clear uptrend, now after the dip these last 2 weeks i can see these up 10% in the next 2. I feel a nice large CFD is in order today.

find it very difficult to get at all enthusiastic over this badly run company ...... have made modest money from the shares in the past ..... alleged hopes of t/o have yet to materialise, though they have floated around for at least the last 2 years ...... am i really so lacking in other ideas where to put my funds just relased from the sale of CSR that this is the best i can do? ...... hope not!
