News — fibre not available on the new line. Serendipity — due a an order mix up our chosen provider converted our existing ADSL to fibre. It seems and existing line can have fibre without question but a new line cannot.
BTO have just flat out refused to activate the cabinet that serves our commercial estate to fibre unless someone else will pay to activate the cabinet. Two years we have been trying. I am in the ludicrous situation of having Sky Fibre, wanting to move to BT Infinity, and not being able to because our cabinet is full!!!! That was extremely helpful as now I know why Sky cant upgrade despite giving me activation date and the conundrum of BT webpage which says cabinets are full but you can place an order.
So I better accept my tried tested faithful Broadband is not going to be turbo charged for months if not years! Thanks folks. Never mind cabinets that are out of capacity, what about people whose cabinet is not fibre enabled, and where Openreach have decided for commercial reasons not to upgrade them for the foreseeable future.
I do not live in Shetland or on the top of Mount Snowdon, no it is urban middle England, Leicestershire in fact. Utterly scandalous in my view, and equally scandalous is the lack of control of this virtual monopoly by both OFCOM and the Government.
Very useful article there, thanks. The only thing not mentioned in this article that I noticed is how do i request the expansion of the cabinet? Do they automatically try and upgrade all of the ones at capacity or can i speed up the process by kicking up a fuss somewhere?
