#Fibrus
We've been without Internet or landline phone for several days.
Yes, we have cell phones, but the signal is very weak here.
The lovely Fibrus man has just mended everything, and we are now back on Planet Google.
So here is a photo of Reiwa, the Christmas cat 💖💖💖💖

Still no broadband and got this text from Fibrus yesterday.

17th Feb is 2 weeks, 3 weeks from when my power came back on and nearly 4 since the storm itself.

BT fixed their broken cable on Saturday, by the way, but the engineer could do nothing about the Fibrus cable.

I'm lost for words.

Think you could plant 1,400 wildflowers in under 2 hours? 🤔

That's what some of the incredible children at Croftlands Infant School managed to achieve earlier this month! 🤯🤩

This event was part of Get Cumbria Buzzing Not Buffering – a partnership between Cumbria Wildlife Trust and Fibrus . 🤝

Day god-knows-when (20, I think) without broadband.

I've watched the outage counter for my postcode go down from 88 to 56 and now 26 but have still not seen any engineers.

The Fibrus CEO made a video yesterday saying how sorry he was, which is very nice etc but why didn't he do that 2 weeks ago?

Has anyone in NI had any updates from Fibrus about when their broadband connection will be fixed?

It's been a week now and nothing.

When you eventually get through to them all you get is a frazzled customer service person who's got a script to read.

They were set up to serve rural areas.

There’s a canal bridge/aqueduct over a motorway like that. Awaiting connection- a bit like our fibrus super fast broadband connection.

Dear British Telecom, when renewing my broadband I asked you for your best price. That was still too high. 2x now the Retention Team has phoned and offered a lower cost and higher speed each time. Please understand what best price means. You have lost me to Fibrus. BT are desperate.
