Fibre in Ramsgate

Anyone's speeds absolutely horrible right now?

Think the below might be affecting us, slowly getting annoyed with ff and its issues.

Outage | NLD | Mount Frere <> Kokstad via ADVA | Down​

 
Yeah dude every week like clockwork now. And this is literally a brand new network lmao. Its sad really but this is the result of laughably bad groundwork. I said it right at the start when they were trenching because I saw the mess they made myself.

I will jump to OpenServe first chance I get. **** FF.

of course, it is Friday again ;)
 
Really, if it weren't for these, I would be an absolutely happy customer.

Openserve finally (after that long pre-order and subsequent cancellation) wanted to start installing by me but I declined for the time being as I don't want to cut my speed in half for the same price. I'll assess again in a few months if major breakages continue to be normal / OS price adjusts.
 
Oh ffs. Really? Is this going to be the norm every Friday for us now? I literally just sat down to rest and the kids dropped off their PS4 with a shopping list of games I was hoping to download for them as I'm on Extra now.

This **** is testing my patience now.

Where are you again? I am absolutely willing to drop my speed (which I only get to the app version of Speedtest anyway) for a stable connection.

I'm in Shelly Beach, they've started to roll out more in the South Coast as a whole but I believe, as cavedog mentioned, it'll still be around 2-3 months before going live. It also doesn't help that the coverage map is woefully outdated lol, but I'm glad that they've picked up again after the Marina / Trafalgar rollout.
