Welcome to the Broadband for Grimsby & The Humber South Bank Campaign

This site has won a national award, click here for Information

Note: This site is now closing down. This is due to the fact that my job is complete, as all exchanges now have Broadband on the South bank of the Humber. Many thanks to all those that supported us, in our campaign to bring Broadband to this area.

BT breaks down barrier to bring a million more customers within reach of broadband

Broadband availability to match analogue TV coverage by Summer 2005, Distance limits removed for 512kb/sec ADSL services, Range for 1 Mb/sec ADSL extended to reach 6km from exchange.

Good news for all of you outside the limits, BT have now removed the limits of Broadband, so those of you that were rejected by the length of your line, should try again from the 6th Sept, to see if you can now get broadband.

Press release about it here

BT have announced the dates for all the outstanding exchanges in our area and for some its going to be a long wait. Click on the Tick icon, to take you to the dates.

Exchanges Page

There is a press release from BT, about the reasons for the long lead dates, before all our other exchanges go live. Click here for the Press release.

And the winner of the XBox donated by BT Wholesale, is a Mr R Parker, of Stallingborough, many congratulations to him and his family and hoping that they have loads of fun playing on the XBox.

The Winner of the Modem pack, donated by Eclipse was J Downie, of Waltham.

Note: I will be keeping this site alive, as there is still a long way to go yet and I will still be campaigning until all the exchanges, on here, are live with Broadband.

AUSTIN MITCHELL MP FOR GREAT GRIMSBY lends his support to the Campaign with the following quote: "Broadband is the mark of modernity. Any community which wants to be plugged into the twenty first century needs it to speed communications, commerce, business and education. We've planted the tree in Grimsby. Now let us all benefit from its fruits".

Grimsby, Cleethorpes, Scartho, North Thoresby, Barton upon Humber, Barrow upon Humber, Immingham and Killingholme exchanges are now live.

Note: you can Pre Order for your new Broadband connection via an ISP of your own choice, Once your exchange has a Ready for Service Date, you do not Have to order from the ISP you pre registered with to get broadband. Shop around for the best deal out there. See ADSLGuide's Summary ISP list for a full list of the UK's ISP's offering ADSL Broadband.

Webmaster comments:

I keep getting asked "Which ISP should I register with for my new broadband connection" and I say if you have over a month to wait before your own exchange becomes Broadband enabled then wait till a month before hand. The reason for this is simple. In six months time who knows what the charges will be for broadband? As at the moment they are all over the place, as the ISP's are fighting new ground here and it will take a while before the price packages will settle down and be accepted as normal.
