Database recheck?
Posting on behalf of a friend who's entire neighborhood can get full fibre when checking each address, apart from 5 houses in my friends "block" of terraced houses.
This/last year Openreach cabled up all houses and each have a new Openreach hatch at the boundary of each garden, including the 5 who are showing as not available (FTTC only). We have checked each house in the area and marked it green or red on the map, attached.
Is there a process to get it rechecked?

Re: Database recheck?
This isn’t really a BT Consumer issue , but an Openreach one, but , on the face if it , the property’s in question should be able to order FTTP , the ‘toby boxes’ outside indicate they were included in the FTTP rollout , but for some reason the address checker doesn’t reflect this…..there is ( AFAIK ) a part of the OR website , where it’s possible to raise a question , along the lines of ‘my neighbours can get FTTP but I cannot’ , if it’s something simple like the addresses were missed off a list , they may be able to rectify this….unfortunately there does seem to be some instances where a standard ‘ sorry you cannot get it ‘ reply is given when it seems to be pretty clear they can ( as in this case ) , although they tend to be where someone can order FTTP with some providers ( that also use OR infrastructure ) but BT say it’s not available

If you are planning to place your order with BT Retail, then it would be worth ringing the FTTP helpdesk on 0800 587 4787and see what they say.
As @iniltous has said, its an Openreach issue. This is a BT Retail Customer Forum, and has no connection to Openreach, who support many other providers as well as BT.

Re: Database recheck?
Did you get anywhere with this? I have the same issue, houses to either side and opposite of me can order, I can't. The property opposite even has a cable going over the road to the pole which is directly outside my house!!
