Lots of Will PN offer this threads lately, it is 30 days and change into 2012 give them a chance, thats possibly due in 2013. Changes have been happening every 6 months or so for the last 2 years.
So BT have just got FTTC barely rolled out and you want to know if they are offering FTTP, other than BT or a LLU ISP none can plan for that.

The firm plans to roll out the system starting next year.
Costly connections
Optical fibre links to street cabinets are widespread, but the connection from cabinet to premises is in most cases copper cable, limiting the speed of the connection.
FTTP will require a fibre-optic connection to the premise from the street cabinet to be installed. But that may not mean digging up the road. "It could be overhead, might be on a pole, might be in an existing ductwork," Openreach's Mike Galvin told the BBC.
But connection will come at a price. BT said the installation fees will most likely be in the high hundreds of pounds, possibly more. What individual customers will have to pay will depend on whether companies who provide broadband connections, such as ISPs, pass them on to consumers. |
Translation, won't hit us by 2013 as its way too expensive maybe 2015 or later.
