Today, SVT Örebro reports on the Regius family outside Nora, who may have to move since Telia ended their fixed internet connection.

The region had the goal of delivering broadband speeds of at least 100 Mbit / s to 95 percent of the inhabitants this year - but has only reached 81 percent.

What do you think about this?

How important is broadband for you when, for example, choosing where to live?

Hi.

Good that you are writing about this.

Lives on Aspö an island between Strängnäs and Enköping.

Telia has pulled fiber.

We have neighbors with installed fiber 600 m away.

For our part and 6 other households, telia refused to move to these households even though we are in a cluster.

Very miserably handled.

We had all written an expression of interest and committed to pay the registration fee within 14 days when the work was to begin.

We only received an email about the interruption and were denied connection to telia fiber.

Fiber promise for 10 years, still ADSL.

Sjöbo municipality does not care about its inhabitants.

We signed a contract and then we were promised fiber within a year.

That was three years ago.

Had it not been for the fact that we have mobile broadband, we would have been forced to move.

The speed of it is poor.

We are between 300kb and 2mb per second so no streaming or online gaming for us.

But we can pay bills and so on.

And we still hope that they get started so that we also get fiber.

Do not want to join?

Could it be that many people can not really afford to join?

For me, it has become a matter of principle.

The others on the street paid SEK 8,500 for connection when fiber was offered for the first time.

Now IP-only will have 19,000 of me for connection.

I moved into the house after the first round and the previous owners opted out of fiber.

Internet via the telejack works well and soon 5G will come, which is also fast enough.


Why should I finance IP-Only's risk-taking to enter the project?

I recently received an email response to what it would cost me who lives in Örebro to have open fiber withdrawn to the house in the new Hjärsta.

They take almost 35,000. This despite the fact that the area already has fiber and that the connection cabinet is about 8 meters from my house.

So I think this is a lie and a cursed poem.

These companies have a monopoly and earn a lot without government regulation.

In addition, they receive grants through our tax money.

They do not want to do much for the public good, I claim, only when they can earn a decent penny.

Agenda came and greeted thank you.

When we moved into our current house (in the country), I contacted the municipality to find out how they think about their residents and their connection.


They happily replied that an agreement with a supplier had been concluded and that the start of the expansion was in full swing.


Shortly afterwards, we were contacted and were able to sign a contract for fiber.


It was almost three years ago and the only thing that happened is that we received two Mail where we are informed that the expansion has not started yet.

Our children are starting to get bigger and the lack of a fast and above all stable internet is reflected both in school and among friends.


Unfortunately, it is a big part of our everyday life and will certainly not get smaller.


Although we enjoy living in the country, we want the best for our children and thoughts of moving back into the city already exist.

Lives in a small town, but in a sparsely populated area.

Has internet via the telephone jack, works so far, but various strange 'interruptions' are being considered, for example the broadcasts from Svt are often interrupted at midnight.

Last night I chose to join streamed TV from Australia and can watch optional broadcasts from there (!) But not from Svt 24 hours a day.

Another thing, internet connection is today far too expensive, you have to cut down on food costs etc. to be able to afford.

It is inconceivable that this can be the case in today's Sweden.


Digital equality is closely linked to democratic rights that should be taken for granted.

Give discounts on subscriptions to the elderly as well as free courses and a heavily discounted tablet.
