"We have no plans to build Full Fibre to this property yet"
I just did my regular check on the OR availability checker, to see what the latest would be for when we might get FTTP.
Up until recently, I got a vague 'later in 2026'. Well, today it says "We have no plans to build Full Fibre to this property yet".
Checking the Better Internet Dashboard, my half of the estate is a literal black spot on this side of my town (Aylesbury). We are surrounded by enabled FTTP service. The estate is basically two halves, with two long roads around reach half. The other half of my estate (AFAIK all buried armoured cable both sides) has been done. OR turned up last year and put in inspection chambers, and have been merrily trenching up to houses to install. But my half - nothing. They even marked up the roads a few years back, but nothing at all has happened.
It would appear we're on the whenever/never list now. It's not the end of the world, I get 80Mb VDSL, but I'm a nerd who likes shiny stuff, I just want FTTP!
I know there's nothing I can do. Just venting about the whole thing. My cabinet got passed over for Gfast as well, they all got done - except mine! So frustrating.
Edit: I've just checked again this morning and now it claims "We’ll be building in this area in the next year", which is what it usually says. So that's odd.
