It looks like the UK's biggest mobile phone company will be created by the merger of T-Mobile and Orange according to press reports.
Vodafone and 02 have been negotiating to buy T-Mobile but it looks like France Telecom have won the deal and both T-Mobile and Orange will continue as separate brands in the UK but will share networks and back office fuctions. The combined company will have more than 30 million mobile customers in the UK.
