The proposed merger between Vodafone and Three in the UK could lead to higher mobile bills for customers.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has expressed concerns that the merger would reduce competition and negatively impact those who can least afford mobile services.
Vodafone and Three disagree with the CMA's findings and argue that the merger would improve the country's mobile market and bring investment.
The final decision on the merger is expected by 7 December.
