I received an email that BT were upgrading the network on Friday but I don't think this is to superfast, probably just to marginally faster than dial-up!

Sadly, it looks as if we will not be getting Superfast Broadband any time soon:

BT broadband running at 15mb at the moment in Bude, max is 20mb, but check your broadband package as some only allow 8mb speed depends what you pay for!

ReportJust to add that after the recent upgrade, we are now getting a steady 6 - 7 mbps in Poughill. But as already reported, getting connected to the fibre optic service is still some way off. But who needs it, and who can afford it?

For what its worth.. Have just run a speed test covering the distance between Bude and Newbury and have had a rather pleasant result! 12.79Mb download achieved. It would appear that when BT updated my service (around the 24 Feb) the Broad band service has improved no end from a regular 6.5 Mb to the current level.... One very happy customer!!
