Re: Potential ADSL Switchoff Temporary Reprieve

Local to us is a BT ADSL only area.Openreach emailed promising FTTP @ 1600Mbps soon 9+ months ago, 
none of the overhead or underground fibre work or even duct clearing has started.  

The two BT hatches on our front bankings have not been lifted in years.

Less than 3 months remain, tick tock !

Re: Potential ADSL Switchoff Temporary Reprieve

I live in an ADSL only area (we do have altnet FTTP fortunately). BT only offer 4G broadband in our area, and OR have no plans to provide anything else. I suspect there will be a lot of small areas that will be orphaned when PSTN is switched off, and even more when ADSL goes completely.
