Im with Sky Fibre who use BT infinity cabinets but give totally unlimited (No FAP) and dont have ridiculous contract rules like BT that say you will be charged extra if you don't make a phone call on the landline each month. Who uses a landline anymore?! I get consistently 40/10Mbps but my line is capable of 85/28Mbps. It would cost an extra ?10pm to get maximum speed but 40/10 is more than enough :)

oh please! they are 1 mile away. its 10 minutes on the bus. Its like me complaining if they moved the police station to Sainsburys. THAT's 1600 metres further away from me than they currently are! the sky is falling the sky is falling!

looks like the local councillor is trying to meddle with business in a recession. Last time I check the Co-operative was a 'Co-operative' owned for the benefit of its members. Not a giant multi-national trying to take over the world. By challenging an application, means the loss of needed local jobs. by blocking applications like this, you leave those people on JSA. You should be helping these people get off benefits by supporting the expansion of business in the area, not blocking it. With Dulwich and West Norwood having 3,988 claimants of JSA and Camberwell and Peckham having 5,399 you could be helping reduce that by not blocking this application. Even its its just 10 staff they employ that's still between ?562 and ?1114 saved per week from the public purse. That might not seem like a lot, but how many other businesses are the local Lib Dem councillors and Tessa Jowell blocking that could bring jobs to the local community? "big decision affecting East Dulwich Night Time Economy" Please! by blocking this you are affecting the economy!

Waitrose would be much better than M&S or iceland. being so close to central london people should be using public transport or cycling, there should be no need for a car and if you do need a car use zipcar... much better for the environment and the local community and would reduce congestion on lordship lane. having people drive 200m just to buy a loaf of bread is wasteful and happens far to much already.

compulsory voting. works perfectly well in the colonies as well as an elected upper house :)

try giffgaff, cheap and they use the O2 network.

Im consistently getting 35-37Mbps in real life... from the box this is what I get: http://i.imgur.com/QAXh2.png http://i.imgur.com/OW7ME.png *geek* :)

Hi All, just thought I would share my experience so far with the Openreach Fibre/VSDL service that is in the area. Open Reach have opened the wholesale market so its not just BT that sell the infinity product. I took the service with Sky because its cheaper than BT and truly unlimited with no traffic management or acceptable usage policy and only a 12 month contract. I live about 200-300 metres from the Fibre Cabinet was told I would get 40Mbps. Running several tests this is the case time and time again, so very impressed. Ive been looking at the Open Reach modem logs and it determines the maximum attainable is 91Mbps so im quite impressed and eagerly awaiting sky to release their 80/20 service. If you are close enough the a shiny new cabinet then it will probably be the same for yourself if its speed that you need. Those that are quite far from the cabinets might also benefit from significantly increased speeds maybe not as high as 40Mbps but still a great deal than your current speed. :)

TfL freedom of information request should get this information. All those taps of all those oyster cards are meticulously logged for purposes such as this. and fancy graphs that are somewhat fudged to make them look good like these: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/businessandpartners/buses/boroughreports/routes/performance-route-P13.pdf James Barber Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > To have the P13 formally reviewed mid contract > about its capacity would require evidence of > overcrowding. > Southwark Council doesn't have the resources for > this type of data collection. > Does anyone on this forum regularly catch this > service who could note down the numbers of > passengers at different points on their journey? > Any parents who could encourage an A level > geographer to record this?With real evidence we > can do something much as the users of the 343 > (Evolution Quarter Residents Association) have.

thanks for all the feedback guys, very helpful!

Hi Everyone, I tired searching for similar threads but couldn't find any. So sorry if this has been covered before, but it must change so often I thought I would ask for a fresh perspective. We are move to ED in a few weeks and I just wanted to gauge the locals opinion of the services from east dulwich station for services into London. Are they reliable? Can you easily get on a train, or are the crammed like sardine cans? Is it better to go from Forest Hill or anywhere else? Does anyone else travel into Charing Cross and Shoreditch/Liverpool St, whats your route and how long does it take you on average? Thanks in advance! :)
