Eircom Takeover

Sir, - I am extremely annoyed at having to sell my ex-Eircom shares against my will

Sir, - I am extremely annoyed at having to sell my ex-Eircom shares against my will. The glowing picture painted by Mary O'Rourke at the floatation of Telecom led me to expect that I could at least be a part of a growing concern with all its ups and downs. I had no expectation of making millions, and I was quite prepared to take the rough with the smooth.

However, it now appears that as a rather unimportant passenger I am being jettisoned overboard to make the ship more seaworthy, - Yours, etc.,
