... as Openreach builds fibre connections, it will need to encourage internet users need to pay more for their services.

Good luck with that!

Most customers would not mind paying a little more if guaranteed a decent speed increase but the ones that do not need the speed will not pay full price as it stands.

Well if your FTTP then there is NO need to pay for copper LINE RENTAL is there, so it's common sense they will want more money for the FTTP service, but if no line rental fees many wouldn't mind paying more for their internet

Err, the broadband subscribers? He points out that bb prices will have to go up to pay for all of this. Seems fair.

Urm you can get a data only GEA-FTTP service now, Zen will sell it to you...

Alas price is no cheaper because not cheaper at the wholesale level, i.e. loss of revenue from SMPF/MPF voice line rental is already taken into account.
