£370m deal creates the UK’s third largest ISP

Carphone Warehouse has agreed to buy AOL’s UK ISP business for £370 million in a deal that’s expected to go through by the end of the year.

AOL has around 2.1 million internet subscribers in the UK, 1.5 million of which are broadband customers. Add this to Carphone Warehouse’s 412,000 connected broadband users and the combined customer base will come third only to BT's and NTL's in the broadband stakes.
