I was paying £16 per month for my standard broadband, but have upgraded to Infinity 1 at £20 per month. A great deal that I am very happy with. I will draft a blog update after Onlincolnshire publish their weekly update tomorrow. I was mid-term contract, but upgrade was otherwise free, with just £9.99 for a fibre router. My service will go live January 2017.Geoff Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276199104613997901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377548475394156858.post-90309827798801191502016-12-15T21:35:01.177+00:002016-12-15T21:35:01.177+00:00Geoff, It is now possible to order fibre broadband...Geoff, It is now possible to order fibre broadband for the remaining properties on Main Street. I spoke to BT this morning to order basic broadband after moving back into our cottage after renovation and extension work. I explained that I was connected to fibre cabinet 17 Metheringham and that the "paperwork" had not been processed therefore I could not order fibre. They said that I could upgrade to fibre when it was available at no extra charge, so proceeded with the home move process albeit to the basic package. Then "s*ds law" later today fibre is available for all the properties which were connected DP108 !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13991553935046220288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377548475394156858.post-87748788734622656592016-12-11T14:31:24.681+00:002016-12-11T14:31:24.681+00:00Hi Jerry.

I rang BT, something I've given up doing because of the usual woeful 'service'. This morning one of the engineers rang on a crystal-clear line. He told me he'd been working up the pole in Wellhead Lane that services mine and two other houses, Cabine 17 and Cabinet 3. He was very excited to tell me that we should be able to get Superfast broadband. So excited was he that he'd 'phoned four of his friends who live in the village to tell them of its availability. So, I've ordered it, confident that I won't get anything like the speeds advertised but hoping that I might get something like the 17 that according to my contract I should be able to expect at the moment - I get around 1.48. I HATE BT. The engineer couldn't have been more helpful by the way.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08679764472504029904noreply@blogger.com
