Vtesse Broadband announce super-fast broadband services for Higher Pill, a community in Saltash, Cornwall
Posted 19th August 2010
Residents and businesses in Higher Pill, a relatively new community to the north of Saltash in Cornwall are now able to enjoy the super-fast services offered by Vtesse Broadband. Higher Pill has much in common with many other newer communities right across the UK in that it is was built on the periphery of the old town which almost by default puts it a long way from the BT telephone exchange. As the residents there will tell you, communities that are a good distance from their local exchanges are virtually guaranteed a poor broadband experience. Not any more in Higher Pill!
