    I've never heard of that happening.
    Do the other ISPs given a reason why?
    too far from the exchange?

    Actually it does, as other providers say they cannot offer the service. :mad:
    Have checked with loads of them.;)
    Only the so called LLU providers will not offer the service. There are many resellers of the BT service available. And often they will have better customer service and technical support.

    If BT will provide the service, other ISPs will too, generally. Only really the fast LLU ones like Be* will knock you back if your line's too long.

    Thanks for those last two replies.
    Any specific companies you would recommend I try as all the ones I've contacted so far said no!

    Hi my friend has just moved to Dorset outside Bridport. Can anyone recommend a good internet connection. My friend has no idea (just like me lol) about computers. Any help would be appreciated .:j

    I'm near there at the end of a long single line and I'm on talk talk. Going back to BT soon as they have offered a better bundle.
