Purbeck Campaign Seeks Support for BT to Make Broadband Improvements

Posted: 09th Jul, 2010 By: MarkJ
corfe castle purbeck uk broadbandResidents of Purbeck (Corfe Castle, Kimmeridge, Swanage and Worth Matravers) in Dorset UK are being asked to show their support for some much needed broadband improvements to the areas internet connectivity by joining the Purbeck Broadband campaign.

Setup in March 2010 "by two geeks", the campaign seeks to draw BT's attention to the areas many broadband woes. The website claims that some parts of Purbeck frequently experience "inconsistent and substandard broadband [speeds]", among other issues.

Purbeck Broadband Statement

"In order to get BT to permanently repair any faults (there have been several Major Service Outages (MSOs) in and around Corfe Castle, Worth Matravers and Swanage in recent months but there hasn’t been any lasting improvement in the quality of broadband service) we need to gather as much evidence as possible that would indicate a widespread problem – and we need as many residents as possible to raise the issue with their ISPs.

If you are a resident of Purbeck (particularly if you are on the Corfe Castle or Worth Matravers telephone exchanges, though the problems may be more widespread) and are experiencing problems with your broadband connection (mainly fluctuating and inconsistent download speed at random times of the day and night, recently made worse by severe packet loss during afternoons and early evenings), and you wouldn’t mind your name being included in a complaint/report to the BT Chairman’s office, please get in touch either via email to info@purbeckbroadband.co.uk or the contact form."

The campaign hopes that, with a little community action, it might just get the problems "sorted before Christmas".
