Pike?Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

This is depressing. We have got so much business legislation nowadays that somebody is asking whether it is legal for a company to have two or more concurrent customers.
Yes it is.Comment

I do hope not
Assuming you have your own ltd and that the new gov have not changed the law allowing businesses to have more than 1 customer. It's fine.
If they have changed the law to restrict businesses to 1 customer, does anyone else want to swap with me. I seem to be the NTL customer and would be willing to swap with anyone who is the customer of a major UK airline or a car company, preferably German.
