Pipex to Idnet questions

[stirling]

i aint gonna buy shares in idnet ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,  just in case

[Rik]

Actually, buying shares would be great for customers, imo, as it would give us a say in how the company operates...

[stirling]

maybe we should start a new topic, persuadin idnet to give us poor mortals a discounted share scheme or somethin, as a reward instead of a yearly tax free bonus maybe a gallon of unleaded ?

If IDNet did ever want to raise cash, offering shares to customers might be a very good move. All we have to do is persuade them.

Agreed, although that might be good from our pov, it might not be so good from where iDnet are standing. There are benefits from being a smaller, wholly owned company!  Once you go public you have another set of problems to deal with, unless they made it a private offer via some form of investment vehicle.  Even then they are surrendering control which they might not want to do.

I must admit that having seen how Zen have expanded I am intrigued as to what iDNet might want to do.

[Rik]

I was just thinking that if they did have to raise capital by selling shares, having customers with a vested interest in the business could prove a good moved. Simon & Tim might see it differently, of course.
