Well BT have given our exchange a trigger level for broadband, after over 1 year 75 people have registered their interest. So what is our trigger? 150? 200? 250? No....400

400 people for gods sake. Thanks for nothing BT.

In a village where i lived, a guy set up a web-site which told people about the joy of broadband, this got the village broadband.
Also another village near where i live set up there Broadband connection by using wireless hotspots. Because they did it themselves they only had to pay £24.99 a month for a 2MB service!

We have a website which explains the use of broadband, but it doesnt work.

My brother emailed the guy that does the site, asking whether it has moved or not.

Please try to use a more descriptive subject title - it helps everyone.
Lots of people will be interested in a Broadband campaign posting - but they will have trouble finding your post again with this title!

Have you tried the BT broadband website? You are able to see if there is a local campaign for your exchange which you may be able to support. If there's not one then you can become the local campaign co-ordinator with support from BT. I've just managed to get my local exchange past it's trigger (3 months from 51 resgistrations to over 350) and Broadband is coming next month!

*please try to use a better title...*
