Some developers don’t allow Openreach onto their site , and do a sweetheart deal with an Alt Net , or have their own in house ISP , as stated you would have to discuss this with your developer, or it could be that OR are ‘on site’ , but the developer has released ‘plots’ in a different order to how they told OR they were to be built and released, so you can end up in a situation where ( for example ) the OR network is available at the south end of the site ,and the new houses at the south end can get FTTP , because that’s where the builder said the first homes would be released for sale , and OR have provided the FTTP network in good time for these houses. The developers construction was to proceed from the south end to north end gradually , so OR brought the FTTP network in at the south ‘end’ of the development, and have FTTP ready for the new builds in the south ‘end’ , and planned on extending the network as the developer started new plots , but because it suited the developer , they then build and sell a house out of the expected ‘plan’ order, at the northern end of the site , and there is a delay while OR have to try and get the FTTP network built from the south to the north end of the site in a much shorter timescale than was envisaged .
This isn’t something OR can easily do, they are reliant on the developer to build the joint-boxes, the ducts etc in the footpaths ( that may not yet exist) OR also have as to rearrange the scheduling of the work , commissioning etc.
A developer cannot sell a house that doesn’t have water, sewers or electricity, but they can sell a house without ‘internet’…if that’s the case , you may have to wait , while the OR FTTP network is constructed , but it’s the developers ‘fault’ for you having to wait, because they sold the ‘plot’ instead of saying ‘that plot isn’t available for a few months’
