After the standalone stores are closed on 3 April, the company will focus on selling mobile devices and connectivity through its shops in 305 Currys PCWorld stores and online.

Some more bad news for some

So is Carphone Warehouse just going to be online based now? If so it kinda makes sense although it is a shame for the workers. These shops every time I go past them always look empty and it’s just so much easier and faster getting a mobile phone contact online instead of in store.

An old school friend of mine has worked for them since leaving school, and has been a shop manager for a good chunk of that time, and she found out through twitter, they didn't even let her know properly!

Once again the staff at last to know ~ such shabby behaviour by the company.
