Why Oh Why does BT get all the funding

Why Oh why do BT get all the money, the Government have made the bidding system so unfair, The process is matched funding from the Government, the bidder and the local auth.

We are a small company that provides superfast broadband across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Leicestershire with over 12,000 sq miles of super fast fixed fibre to wireless service. We have no chance to bid for the BDUK funding as the projects are into 1millions in most areas and we could never match this.

It time that the local authorities was give the money to use local business to provide the service. It takes Ineedbroadband.co.uk around 4 weeks to get area online with superfast service. If we had the funds we could meet the UK target.

On a last note, if BT can not meet the target then they should not get the funds!
