Can I get Full Fibre?

Hi
I am in a new build estate completed 2years ago and Openreach have installed Full Fibre across the estate.
It isn't available when I am trying to order it even though people a few houses away have had it installed and reported working fine.  Have done the dsl/availability check and it comes back with below for my current phone number??
 
I have got the grey plastic duct going into the house which an openreach contractor said should be able to receive.  Guess its whether its connected to an underground box.  Not having much joy with openreach.
 
Thanks for any help!

The exchange is not in a current fibre priority programme

WLR is currently available at the exchange

SOADSL is restricted at the exchange

FTTP is not available.

For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.

Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.

The Stop Sale date for IPstream is from 31 Jan 2013. The Formal Retirement date for IPstream is from 30 Jun 2014.

If you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service

In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.

Mildenhall exchange:Only single order products are available and ADSL and ADSL2+ products are not shown as available.However for premises that can only be served by SOADSL, BT will continue to accept ADSL and ADSL2+ orders until SOADSL is available.


Thank you for your interest

@imjolly Thanks a lot,

 

No, I haven't got that bit of kit.  Does the Availability checker look like I can get it?

Thanks for your help!

No, FTTP isn't available to you.

FTTPoD  is available but that is an extremely expensive (£10Ks) product aimed at business users.

@licquorice @imjolly Thanks for you help

 

@licquorice  As most people in the estate can get it, houses 50m away... could it be a case that openreach forgot to connect to a underground box (sorry don't know technical term) for our set of houses? or  a database error? 

Thanks

Re: Can I get Full Fibre?

It’s not unusual for a new build development that is done in different phases to have a mixture of copper and FTTP, if the developer , when building the earlier part of the development didn’t request FTTP  at the outset, then by default they would get copper , for the last couple of years , FTTP became the default option, so the later phases likely have that, but this is when the developer submitted plans, not necessarily when the building was started or finished, so the ‘plans’ for something 2 years old were likely submitted 3 years ago , when copper was the standard connection.

Your image shows it’s a copper pair feed, because at the top of the grey capping 25 is a cover 101a used on copper feeds, if it were FTTP there would be a CSP ( customer service / splice ) point .

Its possible that at some point , OR will come along and ‘retro build’ an overlay FTTP network at some point in the future.

@iniltous Thank you so much for your detailed info.  Really helped understand.

Assume this is unlikely and could be years away??   - Its possible that at some point , OR will come along and ‘retro build’ an overlay FTTP network at some point in the future.

Re: Can I get Full Fibre?

Only Openreach will know if retro fitting is likely in the near future or not , but a newish development is relatively easy pickings , all new ducts, foot way boxes and an aggregation node close by, so as OR push to get FTTP deployed as widely and quickly as possible, hopefully you will not have a lengthy wait, but who knows for sure….if you see OR , or a contractor working on OR’s behalf cabling the area , that could be an indication of FTTP coming soon, otherwise keep checking with OR
