BT pushes government for £1billion matching funding to expand FTTC to 90% of UK

BT Confirm the Final 99 UK Locations for its Superfast Broadband Rollout - ISPreview UK: "BT claims that it could expand the reach of its superfast broadband (FTTC/P) services to 90% of the United Kingdom, although to do so would require them to win the lion’s share of the government’s Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) budget (worth around £1bn). This now looks inevitable and BT has already set aside a further £1bn of its own money to match-fund with any public investment." 'via Blog this'
