We live in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, but sometimes that makes it difficult to have good reception from the internet companies we have in the area. Right now most of us have either Verizon or Frontier. I would say that about 50% of the time, if not more, the internet service is down or we have very low signal. This makes it difficult for our children to do their homework and can make it hard to get in touch with others when we need to. The service we have in this area is not a reliable one. We have started this petition to get Morris Broadband to provide their services to our area. Right now, we do not have access to their services, but I believe with enough signatures, we can convince them that we need them and will have alot more customers added to their company. Please sign this petition so that we can have access to a more reliable internet and phone service.
Frontier and Verizon are clearly content to leave us with useless service while we struggle to get basic work done. I am tired of wasting my money on companies that refuse to invest in our mountain community. We are currently scouting other regional providers to see who is willing to stop treating us like an afterthought.

The momentum behind this petition is proving that the residents of Whittier, Barkers Creek, and Wilmot are done settling for the pathetic service provided by Verizon and Frontier. We are finally gaining the leverage we need to force Morris Broadband to acknowledge that our community is being left in the dark.

Frontier SUCKS. Slow, constantly needs rebooting, goes out for days at a time, they make flimsy excuses when called about it.
