Broad banned

the villagers of templeton, who put an effigy of a Bt openreach van on their bonfire, should consider themselves lucky to be getting an internet speed of 0.7mbps.

I only get a speed of 0.3mbps and 19 of the 35 houses in my street have switched from Bt to a cable company to get better broadband.

As a Bt shareholder, I am annoyed that my shares have fallen in value by a third since January, yet the company’s failure to keep up with technology is forcing people to go elsewhere.
