Talk:Getlink

Contradiction

The article states passenger figures are lower than predicted and than later states there are plenty of passengers for both ferries and the tunnel

What logic could shareholders have offered the tunnels creditors to forgive billions in debt on a tunnel and even worse, what kind of investor would throw money as such a bad idea? GodsTeam

Contradiction Explanation

The creditors forgave a substantial amount of their debt in exchanage for shares in the company. The debt was pretty much worthless as it could not be repaid, so the creditors received shares which gave them more control and a share from future profits. 184.98.58.36 (talk) 18:51, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

debt payoff

The following reference ([1] from the Guardian, and others you can find via "eurotunnel debt" in Google News) suggests an improving situation (about time) which could need a change or two in the start of the article. Linuxlad (talk) 19:06, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Le Shuttle

Did this company used to be Le Shuttle or was that a differernt channel tunnel operator? Simply south (talk) 10:50, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

As far as I know it was simply a brand used for the car and truck trains. Definately not a separate company.Imgaril (talk) 16:39, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

1996 fire article problems

Hello , could someone look at 1996 Channel Tunnel fire as it has a few issues, -the most suspicious of which is the claim of fitting of a fire suppression system in the HGV wagons - this is complete news to me so confirmation would be appreciated. There's a message on the talk page.Imgaril (talk) 16:39, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Is the logo really a Fair Use logo?

I suddenly found c:File:Getlink Logo 2017.jpg, except the file extension name, I couldn't see any reason that Commons file is different from our "Fair Use" one. Looked through c:COM:TOO France, I even think that this logo can't be copyrighted within France, but just can be trademarked. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 04:01, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

@Liuxinyu970226: I frankly didn't realize that Getlink was French company, and that the French had a generous TOO standard. I have no specific justification for it being non-free, I just sorta assumed since I thought it was British, which has a pretty aggressive TOO standard. I'll downgrade and transfer it to the Commons later today.--The Navigators (talk) 05:58, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
