Two UK broadband providers are to partially merge, it has been announced.
PlusNet, owned by BT, will link up with Madasafish, part of the Brightview group, this December.
The announcement, which has provoked surprise in the industry according to website ISPreview, was made in the latest Madasafish customer newsletter.
"We will continue to be Madasafish - your award-winning Customer Service and Technical Support teams will not change and the great standard of service that you receive will not change," the firm said.
"However, by combining our networks and infrastructure we will be able to deliver better and more exciting services in the future."
Further details on the merger are expected in the coming weeks, Thinkbroadband reports.
Madasafish has scored consistently highly in previous broadband customer service surveys.
