Hi All,
Im away on business at the moment and my wife called to have me chat to a chap at the door offering a full fibre FTTP 500 package to us. He seemed legit and had badges and uniform etc, but what struck me as odd is that theres not one mention on any openreach or BT sites that show theres fibre on my street. In fact we moved here 2 years ago (Newquay Cornwall, TR7 2DS) and after extensive research I found that the fastest wired connection we could get was donw the old copper lines @ 2 to 10mbps.
I've been using Threes mobile 5g service which has been pretty reasonable but drops frequently as has terrible latency. Fibre would be incredible but my gut feeling says this guy is a scammer. He even made a casual comment about how we can currently get 100mbps (which we certainly cannot) and that BT would pay off the remainder of my contract with Three which seems to good to be true as i';ve only signed the 24 month contact 6 months ago. He also added that hes only in the area for a week then is going back to Bristol which seemed the classic hard pressure sell.
Can anyone advise how I can validate this chaps claims as I would defo be interested
