Well I called them back twice and they tried to put my order through but there is a technical issue still with the ordering system.!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I want my install date!

I'm currently with sky and have the full package except movies, have been a customer for about 13 years. Haven't got broadband with them currently but do you think they'll give me a good deal on the broadband / phone line? Or will it still be cheaper to go with BT (Would rather sky since i've heard better things about their fibre service)

if you live in town then yes but i am on sky myself and they cant give me no broadband and no fiber but bt can give me 1.5mb not sure what about the fiber broadband speed the speed checker hast been updated yet

but i am with allpay got 10mb waiting for a speed increase to 35 mb should be done next month i hope or might go with bt and see what speed i can get has i amliving in allensmore hereford post code is hr2 9bp

Use the address checker

Put your address in there and it will tell you what you can get. but I dont think you'll get any better than what Allpay have to offer with BT.

I'll believe it when I see it.

I've found about 10 cabs taking orders so far. all marked on the map

This is not exhaustive or particularly methodical, but based on spot checks it looks like the cabs taking orders roughly equates to the first cabs installed.

The fact I've found 10 should in no way be used to perpetuate the myth that 10 cabs are required to put an exchange live. That just happens to be where I stopped checking, it's time consuming, there will be more no doubt;

Interesting... think they'll all start going live over the next couple of days in a similar order to when they were installed?

Also that seems to map out with what I've tried. I've tested a few of my old addresses all in the north and all not switched on yet

well after a few phone calls to Sky and being told I absolutely can't get fibre I have just received an email with confirmation of my order, says about 10 to 15 days....

We'll see.

i still got 22 months on my all pay contract, so i will be staying with All pay, going to update to 10 megabits as 35 is not available in the city, it will come at some point I think.

With BT putting their line rental up next year maybe I made the right choice. Not really bothered about FTTC to be honest, if I was then I would have waited, getting away from Bt network is a big advantage.
