Fibre broadband not yet active

Hi there, I have had fibre installed today, received a text informing that our phone line is now active... But yet to hear about our fibre connection being active.

Reading other posts other users have expressed the same issues, only to be told there has been a fault at the exchange, could someone please help advise of this is the case with my order also?

Kind regards,
Icedduck

Hello there and welcome aboard.

 

Your fibre order completed earlier in the day but your account on our side hadn't activated quite yet.

I've manually pushed this through for you now.

 

Can you let us know if you're able to connect?

Hello there.

 

As there's no capacity at the cabinet, we'd need to unfortunately wait for Openreach I'm afraid. Whilst it can take up to 3 months, sometimes it's done quicker but in some cases it can be longer.

 

I'd recommend checking this site every so often: http://dslchecker.bt.com/
