SOME correspondents recently wrote in to criticise Nynex Cable Communications.

If a company provides 25 per cent cheaper telephone bills, and connection charges for new customers is £25, compared to BT's £116, I know which one I would choose.

No wonder BT is losing 60,000 customers a month.

What harm does competition do? It is better for consumers and gives wider choices.

No conglomerate should have a complete monopoly. Let's have more competition.
