Moving Home - House Check Please

Hi,

Just wondering if a member of the PlusNet team could check an address for me to see if it already has, or can get, full fibre.

Happy to provide the property details via private message.

Many thanks

Re: Moving Home - House Check Please

I have already done that and it tells me it can be ordered.

I am wondering if there is already a FF connection in the property and if there isn't could PlusNet supply (move home scenario)

I have had issues in the past where it has said it is available, then it wasn't, then was again.... and then getting it actually installed was a PITA

Hence my original question

Does the checker state that it can be ordered or an ONT is active? If ordered assume no active service. There may be a service via an Altnet.

This is what it tells me:

 

Our records show the following FTTP network service information for these premises:-Multi Dwelling Unit Residential MDU Built to Curtilage External Build required.

FTTP is available and a new ONT may be ordered.


There is one Alnet available for the property, Hyperoptic - which says it would need to do an install

@DerekW 

That is all PN can really tell you - they basically use the same Checker.

 

It looks like FTTP is available but installation work is required (possible ground dig?). Where it says WBC FTTP in the results window what does it say to the right - "KCI2" by any chance.

@DerekW 

Thanks

 

This means a survey is required before an install can be done. It an insatll is possible it may not be particuarly quick.

Re: Moving Home - House Check Please

Only just got FF at this property a few months back and it has been great

However an opportunity has come up for a flat right in the centre on a nearby city, which is where all my support network/friends are and where I work, it would mean no more commutes or missing out on stuff.

Nothing is confirmed yet and it is way off being completed, I just like to know stuff well in advance
