FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                 CORECOMM LIMITED AND CORECOMM HOLDCO ANNOUNCE
               EXTENSION OF EXPIRATION DATE FOR EXCHANGE OFFERS

         New York, New York (March 8, 2002) - CoreComm Limited (Nasdaq: COMM)
and its formerly wholly-owned subsidiary CoreComm Holdco, Inc. announced today
the extension of the expiration date of the registered public exchange offers
by CoreComm Holdco until 5 P.M., New York City time, on April 8, 2002, unless
CoreComm Holdco terminates the exchange offers or extends the expiration date.
The exchange offers were previously scheduled to expire at Midnight, New York
City time, on March 8, 2002. CoreComm Holdco is extending the registered
public exchange offers because the Securities and Exchange Commission is still
in the process of reviewing the registration statement on Form S-4 that
CoreComm Holdco filed with the SEC in connection with the exchange offers.

         In the exchange offers, the holders of CoreComm Limited securities
are being asked to tender: (1) each share of CoreComm Limited common stock
they hold for 1/116.7 of a share of common stock of CoreComm Holdco (subject
to rounding); and (2) each $1,000 aggregate principal amount of CoreComm
Limited's 6% Convertible Subordinated Notes they hold, for 3.0349 shares of
common stock of CoreComm Holdco (subject to rounding) and $30 in cash.

         Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the depositary for the
exchange offers, has advised CoreComm Holdco that approximately 80,433,523
shares of CoreComm Limited common stock (approximately 57.3% of the
outstanding shares) and $192,000 aggregate principal amount of CoreComm
Limited's 6% Convertible Subordinated Notes (approximately 4.0% of the
outstanding principal amount not held by CoreComm Holdco) have been tendered
and not withdrawn as of 4 P.M., New York City time, on March 8, 2002, in
response to the exchange offers. The exchange offers are subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in the preliminary prospectus, dated February 8,
2002, and the related letters of transmittal, which constitute the exchange
offers. Investors are encouraged to read the information regarding the
exchange offers at the end of this release, which describes where you can get
more information.

                                    *******
         The foregoing reference to the exchange offers shall not constitute
an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be
any sale of shares of common stock of CoreComm Holdco in any state in which
such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such state. Investors and
security holders are urged to read the following documents (including
amendments that may be made to them), regarding the exchange offers because
they contain important information:

         -  CoreComm Holdco's preliminary prospectus, prospectus supplements
            and final prospectus;

         -  CoreComm Holdco's registration statement on Form S-4, containing
            such documents and other information; and

         -  CoreComm Holdco's Schedule TO.

         These documents and amendments and supplements to these documents
have been and will continue to be filed, as they may be amended and
supplemented, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. When these and
other documents are filed with the SEC, they may be obtained free at the SEC's
web site at www.sec.gov. You may also obtain for free each of these documents
(when available) from CoreComm Holdco by directing your request to the number
