I’d love fibre-to-the-door in my area . A distant dream though - we only got fibre to the cabinet about 6 years ago, it was gross ADSL2+ before that.

Because I live in a “wealthier” village, there has been talk of a community commitment to it… basically BT will fast-track it to the area if enough people in that area sign up in advance or something like that, petitions have gone round trying to encourage people and businesses. Unfortunately (because y’know… how wealth works) the village is also skewed towards being “slightly older” so there are an awful lot of people who could more than afford the upgrade, but are happy enough with what’s available in the area… not even full “normal fibre” speeds - we get about 45mb not 70. In fact my “minimum guaranteed” is only 35, but thankfully it’s never actually that low.

To be fair I’m not sure “I want to download digital game purchases faster cos they’re getting huge” is a convincing reason for most around here. It’s more of a “Netflix works fine so we’re happy” area.

bt sent me an offer, it is an extra £5 a month and it includes hybrid connect hardware and they bumped my mobile up to unlimited calls and data so it's crazy not to upgrade

£37 billion spent on disastrous test and trace. £4billion is pretty much nothing.
