My issue with KC is simply value for money. The speeds and download limits they offer are not worth the price being asked, and that price keeps going up. netindex.com has Hull 857 out of 954 in the UK, yet it is in the top 20 largest (just). Download speeds of 4 or 5 are very poor for a large city, it should be averaging 40 - 50 like our friends in Cas. Yes Lightstream is great if you are one of the lucky few to have it available, with the rollout being more of a crawl. I'll be surprised if I see it before 2020.

For comparison, if virgin media was available, speeds of up to 50 meg with unlimited downloads would cost £25.99 for first 12 months and £31.49 after. I currently get speeds of 8 meg with a 35GB limit for £32. For your £40 a month you could have speeds 20x faster with no download limit.

You have to remember the costs i give for EE includes mobile phone usage. Unlimited calls and texts on a brand new smartphone that's worth £350. I rarely use much more than 20GB anyway, so wouldn't need more unless speeds are much faster. Unfortunately, EE's 4G is broken so i've had to cancel the contract.

Quote: FCBen "This looks fantastic, maybe we will be getting some competition in Hull at last. Seems to have affected KC's share price. Definately one to watch.
How has it effected the share price? Whole market was at a 6 week low a few days ago due to Ebola crisis among other things, now returning to previous resistance levels and KCOM is tracking along nicely with that. Its a telecommunication share, one of the most boring equity categories out there, you'd pretty much a disaster to move it out of a trading range.

Good to see some competition for fibre access in Hull. Will be interesting to see what tariffs and so forth can be offered, and how KC react to that. Hopefully month price reductions and fair use limit increases.

Quote: hullbg "Plenty of competition with the wireless providers in and around Hull.'"


As I said earlier in the thread, none of the wireless providers cover me in West Hull, except Pure. And they can't install till next year.

I'm currently tethering with a Giffgaff (O2) mobile phone. It's painfully slow in the evening, and I only have 3GB of usage, but at least I am being charged accordingly. I'm hoping this fibre supply to the masts will improve three and EE's service, and that in turn will be competition for KC. That can only be a good thing for consumers in Hull. If and when their prices are more realistic, I may consider going back to KC.

Sorry never saw that about not being able to get wireless in your area (KC now do a wireless service as well but it is a business package at the minute www.kcbusiness.co.uk/products/co ... stream-air)
There was some good information a couple of years back on the karooforums karooforums.net/index.php?topic=2359.0 about why other suppliers are reluctant to come to Hull.
