Tipped by the independent 2/01/2004

........."And so to our traditional "wild card". Pipex Communications, formerly known as GX Networks, is a telecoms company created by one of the entrepreneurs behind Ukbetting, Peter Dubens. It has been assembled from six smaller players. The ambitious company is generating cash for the first time but is still not widely followed in the City. It could be an undiscovered gem".

This has gone quiet. I'd like to know would anyone still invest in this stock? I'm sure it will be tipped for 2005 but this board seems mostly negative. Would any holders advise newbies to try this share?

Got tired of waiting myself but suspect these will pay off in the end for those who are happy to hold long term. I sold and invested in EVS similar share narrowing losses and 2.5p so hopefully potential to make some good gains in 2005. DYOR and happy new year investing.

Thanks MP.I'm in NSB and that seems a similar share. Shareholders have had a long wait, fundamentals seem sound and is cash generative but the sp isn't budging. With NSB though there should be an update in Jan at least, so it will either be a feast or a famine!

someone seems happy to buy. seeing 5,000,000 of buys. Would like to see these move now

Is it the wind of change after a winter of discontent

I hope so as I dipped in for the first time today at 8.2p.

It lives! I was beginning to despair of ever seeing the price move again.

Blue again !!

Is this the start of an upward trend or another false dawn ?... here's hoping for the upward trend (at last) :)

Agreed I am even optomistic enough to think that the 3.5 mil transaction was a buy at 8.25p earlier to-day and not an "not known"!!!

I thought about getting in to this recently as a lot of people i know are getting Pipex residential broadband in and it is also highly rated for both customer and network service but i read an article recently saying that although the home broadband market had a long way to go prices were going so low that some smaller companies might end up getting strangled and die. Just a thought.

I have just gone back in as they appear to have woken up-I am hoping for good prospects from their new VOIP offering to small businesses. This is the next big thing and should save lots of money for any business that takes it up. Fingers crossed I'm right-hoping for some positive RNS soon.

I've got fed up waiting for these when there's more action going else where. Cut my holding in half today. Too slow for me boy's.

LOL

MS

Nearly sold before I saw the rise. Now only 5% away from breaking even :(

Captainmerton - some big companies (BT, Cable and Wirless) might just be a little scared of Wimax and want a piece of the action. Just a thought.

Mickeyskint - 6.5 milllion buy near the close. Keep moving about and you will live up to your moniker. LOL.

And remember, PXC acquired Host Europe and Nildram. And maybe Easynet to come (but that's a rumour).

Will we see a repeat of the 2004 chart ? If so 12p is on the cards.

From The Telegraph .....

On Aim, broadband provider Pipex Communications rose 0.37p to 8.37p on heavy turnover of 16.7m shares. Dealers speculated the group will announce a tie-up with business telecoms provider Easynet, pegged at 105p.

Blue again. Hope this is the start of good things to come

VOIP is the next big boom-I have bought into EVS for this reason and now Pxc are launching it for their business customers. The cost savings will ensure the takeup will be good-this could be why Pxc has started rising, exciting stuff-DYOR.
