  @andreajenkyns Firstly, Hull is not in Lincolnshire. So it's not on your patch and is none of your business. Secondly, Hull has never had traditional red phone boxes, having its own independent phone company, KCom. They are cream.

  @KCLightstream @KCOMhome Is there any issues with the network as the internet connection is down for me here in Bilton.

  @KCOM as large areas of Hull are without internet, at what point do consider your customers? Give us an update and likely timeframe. There are businesses and customers working from home. Don't treat us like crap cos we will walk.

  @HullDockster @Lisajay75868287 Makes no sense, unless you consider the police are working to a central agenda? This demo should have been cancelled on Health and safety grounds because of the major sporting event at the KCom today. March from Three Tuns down Anlaby Road - they're ***************.

  🚨🇬🇧 BREAKING: The UK’s communications regulator, Ofcom, has officially recognized Starlink as a suitable broadband option under the country’s 10 Mbps Universal Service Obligation (USO). According to UK broadband outlet ISPreview, homes with access to an affordable Starlink plan may no longer be eligible for a USO broadband connection through BT or KCOM. Reports indicate that some applicants have already had their USO requests denied because Starlink service was available at their address. Earlier this year, Ofcom also noted that the introduction of lower-cost Starlink plans helped reduce the number of UK properties without access to affordable, decent broadband to roughly 4,000. The decision marks another milestone for Starlink, reinforcing its role as a practical connectivity solution for rural and underserved communities across the UK.

  @steviee_p @PollardRach But whether it’s the only provider or not, if the service is ****, it’s ****. I lived in hull for 3 years and knew tonnes of people on it (50+) and every single person had a bad experience. You could say the same about reviews for every company but none are as bad as Kcom

  @bt_uk No, we moved to Hull so we can now only get @kcom but we desperately want BT to bring a service to Hull that way we could actually get a whole weeks worth of internet. I don’t even bother switching Wi-Fi on my @ee phone I just use my data 🙄

  @JonKirby1974 The issue is in any other city it wouldn’t effect the entire infrastructure such as retail or hospitality but most companies are forced to use kcom and now they are no doubt losing custom and therefor money, it’s a sham… and needs addressing.
