Title: Broadband
Post by: TR on December 01, 2003, 10:06

For Telephone Number ********** on Exchange LEISTON

Sorry - ADSL broadband is not yet available in your area, but we are currently assessing demand.

We need 500 people to register their interest in buying ADSL broadband at this exchange. If 500 people register then we will begin the process to upgrade the exchange.

Our initial test on your line suggests that you should be able to have an ADSL broadband service that provides up to 2Mbps download speed.

If you decide to place an order, a further test will be performed to confirm that your line is suitable, and if so for what speed of service.

Thank you for your interest.

Only 200 to go I hear..no freakin way will we get it  :-\

That's what I thought Hook. But I have it.

Anyway, BT have pretty much decided to give everyone access in 2005. The trigger levels just determine who gets it first.

Have faith ...
