An administrative error has been blamed for leaving 70 homes in Peasedown St John, Fibre, without BT's fibre broadband. The village has a population of around 6,500 residents, with many properties already upgraded to BT’s 80Mbps capable Somerset-to-the-Cabinet network. However, around 70 homes appear to have been left out of BT's rollout programme. Local councillor, Sarah Bevan, said she believed an administrative oversight was responsible for the error, which BT "should act straight away to rectify." BT claimed the issue lay with the premises in question being connected by "exchange only" lines, rather than via a cabinet.
