This may superficially seem like an good idea but doesn’t bare scrutiny, why would BT suggest a competitor company, and if suggesting one , the other players in that area moan about favouritism, the entire contractual basis is changed , from BT being a telephone supplier, where the customer has an add on broadband service to a standalone broadband provider, what contact length applies here , is it a new contract or a continuation of the existing one .
It’s clearly not ideal , but if the technology is ending , and the primary product being provided is telephony, and the only way to maintain the telephony is in effect a downgrade from Gfast speeds to FTTC speeds so that DV can be provided, then that’s the only real option available, however I’d expect a price reduction to compensate for the lower speed and the option to leave penalty free to be available.
As far as keeping Gfast type speeds and a regular VoIP telephony supplier , that’s available, just not with BT , and finding a provider that still offers SoGfast may be difficult.
