Finally, we're getting FTTP, woo-hoo! (it was installed in June 2024)

I was lucky glad to have current G.fast sync at 261/36 getting 245/35 throughput speed - it was ok for now until FTTP come in end of December 2026!

FTTP installed today (was enabled on our estate Aug 2024). Only took 9 months in total. My plan was to go to FTTC EE but the BT > EE migration is an absolutele car crash so I stuck with BT then in September ordered their FTTP 900 package. 3 months later and 15 failed orders Openreach sub contractor installed it today. Took him 90 mins on site after visiting exchange. I couldnt go elsewhere as contract ended Dec 2025 (£450 exit fee). I've got an old Smart Hub 2 and it wouldnt work until he did an upgrade so it could recognise FTTP. Speedtest currently showing I`m getting 1060 speed. Quite pleased coming from 56.
3 months free for my trouble and a discount per month and then when my Customer Complaints executive rings me Wednesday to check the install went ok I`m going to hit them for the £6 per day Ofcom compensation charge from 11th September. Which works out about £500 compo.

Finally have an install date on the 12th of December (engineer visit), gone for the 500 package.

Hope it goes well, just in time for Christmas yey!
