I find this a real twist of fate

Surely, 150 Million pounds is about the cost of subsidising these new handset prices ( lower and free ) and the substantially reduced voice calls from 3 UK.

So you could argue that KPN will be funding the free free free
3 FREE handsets and calls

Boy good move 3 UK :)

Dont forget the suckers who already bought a phone from you at £200. Use some of this £150 million to do the right thing

Keep your customers happy !
