We know that some of our customers in the Reading and Surrounding areas are having trouble with their broadband connection at the moment.
Affecting multiple area codes:
We are recently experiencing consistently poor speeds in Worth Matravers. 0.05-0.6Mbps over the past few months. We are with Talk Talk but considering switching.
