    BT is going for EE instead of O2.
    BTEETV? Or will BT dump the EE box and stick with YouView?

    The BT-EE merger has been approved by Ofcom. Onwards to the CMA...

    The proposed takeover of EE by BT has received a hesitantly positive recommendation from Ofcom, the UK's communications regulator. In its report to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which will make the final decision on whether the BTEE merger is kosher, Ofcom found no major regulatory issues. The CMA is expected to deliver its final ruling in November 2015; if it's approved, BT says the merger should be completed by March 2016.
