You must be unlucky, according to Openreach "fibre broadband is already available in more than 96.59 per cent of the UK."

- badgersnake 2y agoComing next year apparently. I won’t hold my breath.
- mattlondon 2y agoIs that "fibre" or "full fibre". They lied a lot for a good few years saying "OMG fibre broadband!" When in reality is was still copper for the last mile so that "fibre" connection in reality was some ADSL variant and limited to 80/20mpbs. Actual full fibre all the way from your home to the internet is I think still quite a way behind. Even in London (London! The capital city with high density) there are places where there are no full fibre options.
- _joel 2y agoMaybe myself and my friends are lucky as we're all on ftth
- mattlondon 2y agoOnly a few I know are on ftth. I guess I live in a fairly affluent area in Zone 3 which is lower density than average - zero flats etc, all just individual houses so perhaps not worth their effort rolling out
- Deathmax 2y agoAccording to ThinkBroadband's tracking [1], the headline figures are 85.20% of premises are gigabit capable (FTTP/FTTH/Cable [DOCSIS]) with 71.86% being full fibre.
