Hi All,
I was wondering if someone may be able help with a query i have. I recently move to a new address a few street down from my previous. There is Fibre available in the area, and my previous address served by a different cabinet had it.
My new address however I can only get a copper line, as the cabinet serving this property has no free fibre ports - or so ive been told. The openreach engineer that connect the line for us seemed bemused at this, explaining that there were around 15 free ports physically free in the cabinet.
I have used the broadband checker, results are as follows. If anyone could provide an insight or any advice for next steps that would be great!

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 Oct 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.
