Paul Burley (@paulxdesign) reported from Manchester, England@ant_thedesigner That's a shame. It used to be the opposite problem: KCOM overpriced, the rest of the UK had caught up and the customers are left with no choice because of KCOM's monopoly as an ISP.

Mark (@HCAFCMark) reported from Blackburn, EnglandWe were appalling today and fully deserved to lose. However, 1 loss in 11 and for a side who was in the relegation zone less than two months ago, that’s not bad going. The streak was going to end one day, let’s bounce back against Stoke next week at the KCOM. #hcafc

Tosh&Piffle (@t__and__p) reported@thomasforth Hull's network was owned by the council. Due to an accident of history, it retained its local monopoly long after BT had to let others onto its network. As Oftel (sic) homed in, KCOM invested heavily in broadband technologies, to fend off BT and compete outside its area.

Kermit Sama (@RileyAsari) reported@Pivotless Awh that sucks, I Say as a Joke but it wouldn't surprise me if a company setup in your area before Kcom even get to you

Andrew Ross (@Andy_Ross1962) reported@Chamaerion @andreajenkyns Hull never had red phone boxes. They were never part of the Post Office or BT. They are owned by KCOM and are usually cream coloured.

ItsJustJosh (@Craucoes) reported@JellyTotPixel @HullMichelle75 @JanPurling From my experience working with the engineering team across KCOM yes it can take upto two weeks they aren’t in no hurry the HU8 outage at the end of last year took that long but most only take 2-3 days

Les (@MartinTwigs68) reportedKcom broadband has gone down, I ring up and it tells me I'm 172 inline and should use their web page. How f**king ironic

Gareth smith (@Gareth416) reported@KCOMhome Terrible service from KCOM, one of the most expensive providers in the Country and we are stuck with them in Hull. I bet we won't even be compensated for this mess, been off all day now and it's regularly dropping out.

TRUTHS ALWAYS (@cybertruckSly) reported🚨🇬🇧 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.

DogeDesigner (@cb_doge) reportedBREAKING: UK telecom regulator Ofcom confirms Starlink is a viable broadband alternative under the UK’s 10 Mbps Broadband USO rules. 🇬🇧 • Ofcom confirmed this directly to UK broadband publication ISPreview. • This means that if affordable Starlink service is available at a property, it may no longer qualify for a USO connection from BT or KCOM. • Some applicants have already been refused a USO connection because Starlink was available. • Back in May, Ofcom said cheaper Starlink plans helped reduce the number of premises without affordable decent broadband to around 4,000. This is good news for Starlink, giving it stronger recognition from the UK regulator as a real broadband solution for remote and underserved areas.

Mihu Nowak (@Mihu_Nowak) reported@KCOMcare Disgusted with poor kcom broadband at HU7 since Wednesday. Paying £55.99 for full fibre 400 and have just 5-25Mbps it’s feels like KCOM gave me middle finger... fat rats
