Wondering if anyone on here lives in Morecambe as I will be working there for the next 12 months and need to get some type of internet connection going, Currently I'm on a 100MB plan from VM, I checked VM's site and apparently they are not in that area.
Is there anything like that service up there ?
 
I'm in Lancaster. The cable service in Lancaster and Morecambe is provided by Smallworld Media. Coverage is very patchy though - nothing like you get with VM around Liverpool.

100Mb is available - http://www.smallworldcable.com/Fibre-Optic-Broadband. I know plenty of people who live in Morecambe and I've only heard one of them use Smallworld and that's because they mentioned that they were ditching it for Sky because it was expensive.

Morecambe BT exchange is fibre enabled, but as usual not all cabinets are. One of my colleagues is severely miffed because he's just moved and can see a BT fibre cab over the road from the living room. Turns out he's connected to another cab half a mile away that isn't planned to be enabled!

Thanks for the information, Much appreciated, I'll probably end up going with BT then as I've been able to get some info and max in some areas is a 5MB connection which is way too little and in some other parts its up there with the big boys.
