Oh yes!  I'm with Bt. They have no interest in the country boys. The big bucks are in the cities. I have 4g occasionally.

Thanks Mark will look into it. The government promise the earth with broadband. They even dug up the lane two years ago and buried a fibre cable but that's as far as it gets. They are talking about taking BT to court  for non provision   I hope they do. We are locked in the 20th century

No sign of fibre here yet either, and I live in a not very rural village 2 miles (barely) outside of a city

Previous governments may have done so: I don't think this one has expressed an opinion yet.

Not 'BT': that's a ISP competing with Sky and others.  The Openreach/BT Wholesale target for the national FTTP rollout is all 'commercially viable' addresses to be within reach by the end of 2026: that leaves around 20% which would cost more to provision than all future ISP income derivable from the location, and obviously this is something of a problem...
