Yeah, it really irritates me when renting or purchasing a house/apartment that they often won't say (sometimes don't even know) if it has fibre coverage or not.

I lived in a flat that only had ADSL a few years ago and I never intend on going back to that.
- oarsinsync 6y agoDon’t know what it’s like where you live, but in this side of the world, once I have the address of the flat (which I can get before I even view), I can lookup what broadband options are available to me. Any property that only has ADSL at best doesn’t get a viewing. Even FTTC (fibre to the cabinet) ends up at the bottom of the short list. FTTP is pretty vital now for me, and very much features as one of the deciding factors.
- alexgmcm 6y agoI can look it up on various providers, but it's not that reliable (as one has to check with quite a few providers as they don't all share lines). Also often the address isn't given until after you've arranged a viewing so it's a pain. It should just be listed like other utilities like heating, air conditioning etc.
