t-mobile uk and tmobile in the usa are the same company right?
T-Mobile UK is a subsidiary of T-Mobile International, which is a subsidiary of Deutche Telekom AG(which used to be Germany's gov't telephone monopoly).

»www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/abou···company/

So, to answer your question - they are not the same company, but they are owned by the same corporate parents.
Also, I find it interesting that Vodafone(part owner of Verizon Wireless) is looking to buy T-Mobile UK. Talk about complicated competitor relationships.

Does that mean that they will be competitors like Mercury and Ford? Perhaps more like Toyota and Lexus?

IF Vodafone ends up getting T-Mobile UK, I suspect that they would just merge it in with their existing Vodafone franchise in the UK. Sort of like Verizon is doing with Alltel in the U.S.

In other words, T-Mobile UK would cease to exist.

I have a T-Mobile USA account, so I was curious.
