Rejected petition Remove British Telecom's stranglehold on the UK's communications infrastructure

As a business owner and parent i am forced to use BT and their infrastructure for Broadband and phone where i live and work. Prices are expensive, service delivery unreliable and customer service awful. Both BT and BT Openreach should be broken up to introduce competition and improve service levels.
