There is another link under the category of personal finance but it has nothing to do with finance. If you have difficulties in making payment, you can click the link named wachoviabank.com. You will have an expert helping you to fix your problems and you don’t have to go out of your home to get the service. What you need to do is to choose a button between the two “call us today” and “we’ll call you”. Don’t you think this service shows the attentiveness and consideration of the Wachovia? It’s really good in my opinion.

Matlin Patterson tries to get the responsibility of bailing out Nortel that the government did not do in the past. So why are they giving support to NSN via EDC. I think they don't want the Nortel brand as a canadian brand. For whom the fed gov of canada is working for?

no more Avaya! or Nokia Siemens, MP guys have also chance to cross off their credits to Nortel from the debt list. These means much more bid against NSN. NSN is a topic model. Just appear and dissappear after a while. They have made their free ad also.

What has this got to do with Nortel/E&Y wilfully breaching contracts and breaking employment laws in France and UK?

I call Robert Verdun to testify about Nortel.
In my opinion it's critical to hear from him at that moment.
It would expose BoD tricks to fool investors so they lost all their money. NT stock=zero
Bob, where are you?

Can you try your charm to ask Bob Verdun to post as a guest on this blog?

It's me you are looking for, but I gave up on Nortel a long time ago (about two years). I own no stock, and see no future for those guys!

Hopefully BT didn't miss that comment that Nortel will no longer be a company after December 09.

Buying a big division of a company is an extremely complex activity. You don't just get offers that you like right away. They are probably still negotiating an acceptable deal.

But just because there is no deal announced yet, Nortel is almost certainly looking at hundred million+ dollar offers on other divisions. So the $1 suggestion is just plain silly.

Most estimates put buying all of Nortel at 2 Billion or more. If MP wants it all they can start bidding each piece, first besting the $650 Million offer on the table for CDMA+LTE.

But it might be the end of MP. Assume they buy it all for 2.5 Billion. Next that have to finance the operation of Nortel. Nortel is a basket case and only getting worse as time passes. Most have written off Nortel and the massive delay as MP takes over and tries to come up with a resurrection plan would only accelerate the fall. MP clearly doesn't have what it takes to resurrect Nortel, no one does.

Again the only sane play I can see here is posturing on MP part trying to drive up sale prices. The only interesting part to see is if they will actually go as far as outbidding NSN, (hoping NSN outbids them) but that would be a dangerous game as MP has no idea what to do with this asset if they did win it.

Global warming is BS
Save Planet when China does all the pollution because West outsourced manufacturing to China is BS as well!
I'm waiting for hot summer in Canada, have not seen that yet
Global warming is BS /sorry I said so before/
They have got me here... plastic bags!
Who the hell was that?
They don't give the plastic bags anymore, neither they give paper bags....
shameless!
What about the business in a grocery store where the speed of service at the cash register was an issue.
Some cashiers were able to serve 400-500 customers in an hour years ago.
Nowadays they have to have the small talk with you... did you find every thing you were looking for? what is your postal code?
do you need bags? how many bags you need? How the hell I suppose to know that?
Do you have own bags? Please show me your bags I'll show you mine...

What do you know about losing someone close to you to suicide?

About 95% of suicides are due to or associated with mental illness. It's literature.

And ntlifer, I'm so sorry about his death. And I'm so sorry for his family.

Also not sitting down are:

One of the big names in the Northern Ireland economy is facing a summer of discontent over the treatment of workers made redundant at its ailing plant, the Belfast Telegraph can reveal today.

Angry ex-workers of Nortel Networks in Newtownabbey have vowed to stage a series of protests beginning today with a picket at the Doagh Road site.

The controversy has echoes of the bitter Visteon dispute in Belfast earlier this year, with a lack of redundancy money among the main grievances.

In a statement to the Belfast Telegraph today, the Nortel protesters said: “We are not going to let up in our fight for justice.

“Nortel sent us packing with no redundancy money, no notice and no right of appeal.

You have to realize, my friend , that the STANDARD OF LIVING in
North America ( Canada & USA) is no comparison to the
Standard of Living in China & India!!!
A REFUGEE in Canada receives more $$$$ benefits, than a
RETIREE who worked in the country most of their working life,
and paid TAXES... lets say 30 years or more!! PITY! Isn't it?

Where's Avaya? Enterprise deal was supposed to be imminent.

If the auction bidding process is as you say, and there are only 2 bidders (MP vs. NSN) looking for Nortel assets, MP could take their $1b offer and succeed by splitting it up:
MEN: $1
Enterprise $1
Wireless (against NSN): $1 billion minus two dollars

Ernst & Young Inc. Lawfirm will definitely receive a guaranteed payments
of more than $5,000,000 million US dollars for their
Administrative Legal services!!! Since only Jan 14 ,2009. NOT BAD, EH?

I don't know who set up and created an ESCROW ACCOUNT???
and who suggested it!! and how much was deposited into that
account. Pity and so sad!

That link doesn't work.

Sure they can bid the whole thing, but they must itemize the bid so it is clear what they are offering for each piece since almost no sane bidder would want the whole thing, they will have to bid everyone on the individual pieces.

I still think MP is posturing and blowing smoke trying to drive up the price because first and foremost they are a creditor.

If you're still waiting for charges to be laid for the Bre-X scandal, you're probably blue in the gills from holding your breath.

It is wrong. It royally sucks. Nortel'ers on every continent are getting shafted. But with a parliament that couldn't properly grill the CEO and an RCMP that keeps getting distracted by donut breaks at Tim Hortons, don't hold your hopes up on any action being taken.

If you haven't noticed already, Nortanic is sinking faster than its anchor, so jump on a life boat and paddle as fast as you can. Better hopes abound elsewhere.
