Re: Any BB progress in S.London?

I'm going to try and help here, i am ntl staff and used to work for the team in London responsible for upgrading it to Broadband. I will only give information I know to be true and will not get drawn into debate or speculation into what future plans have.

Over the last 12-18 months work has been carried out to make parts of South London Broadband serviceable. The reasons you have problems finding out which areas have been upgraded is because we use different terminology internally when releasing areas to Broadband and this is not easily translated into postcodes or geographic areas.

Basically 9 'job areas' have been released which equals about 90,000 homes, this sounds like a lot and in many respects is, however it is a mere drop in the ocean compared to the number of homes that still need to be upgraded. ntl is comitted to upgrading the rest of London but as you have already seen this takes a long time.

I will try to obtain a list of postcodes for anyone who is interested but it will be far to many to post. Once I have got hold of this I will update you and you can PM me for it
