Associated Press | Microsoft Corp. and Yahoo Inc. have received clearance from regulators
in Washington and Europe to proceed with a search partnership intended
to challenge industry giant Google Inc.
The companies announced Thursday that the partnership has been approved
without restrictions by the Justice Department and the European
Commission. Under the 10-year agreement, Microsoft’s Bing search engine
will process all search requests and steer search-related ads on Yahoo.
The companies said they will begin implementing the deal in the coming days and expect to complete the process by early 2012.
Moved to NatWest when undertaking a huge expansion of our small company 6 years ago (from Barclays as they were not helpful with our plans). I don’t know why I’ve stuck with them for 6 years, the personal business manager is useless, their customer relations are non existant, their attention to our needs is zero, no calls back, no help whatsover. Don’t waste your time with NatWest. They are hopeless and I’m now going to look elsewhere.
