Direct Save Telecom – You are listed as a partner organisation of MS3 Networks based in Hessle, East Yorkshire.
MS3 has forcibly planted telegraph poles in towns and villages in East Yorkshire despite communities saying NO.
In Hedon and Preston, we have organised a COMMUNITY BOYCOTT of MS3 and its partners. This is supported by ONE THIRD of Households in Hedon and Preston – and support for boycott is increasing. This boycott shall remain active for a minimum of ten years and will not be reviewed until October 2033. During the period of boycott residents and businesses will be actively encouraged not to sign up to those providers that choose telegraph poles to deliver services. This includes Direct Save Telecom.
You have a choice; to remain a partner of MS3 Networks and be subject to community boycott or do the decent thing and disassociate yourselves from the anti-democratic MS3 Networks.
MS3 Networks have been awarded the Internet Stinkers Award for 1. lack of community engagement and 2. poor service delivery. Disassociate yourselves from the Stinkers!
Is it right, that communities who have very clearly articulated that they don’t want unnecessary telegraph poles (through meetings, demonstrations and via their elected representatives), should have them forced upon them? This has been the case in Hedon.
MS3 Networks have been fined 202 times by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council for breaches of permits since working in the county. They were subject to a Stop Work Notice on the 1st of November 2023 because of unsafe working. Is this an organisation you want to be associated with?
