Reading the recent paper, I have to totally agree with Mr Hipkins' letter, myself living offSeymour Drive, I too was led to believe we were to get the new high speed broadband, now my question has been answered thanks to Mr Hipkins. I/we live in an area of newish properties and I cannot see why there should be no logical or logistical reason why we cannot have the new high speed broadband service in the Seymour Drive, Norton view, and Oakwood and any other areas at the top of Dartmouth town.

So come on BT Openreach, give us a service for the 21st century, we are lagging behind many other EU countries and even some Third World countries believe it or not. I'm sure there are people in my area who run/operate working from home and the new high speed broadband is just what they need oh and me.

I would be most greatful if there is anyone from BT Openreach reading this letter who can give us an answer why we are not getting the new high speed broadband, then please respond.
