Good Evening All,
I've been on FTTC for quite some time now with a 80/20 (80/20 Sync as well) service but since October my line has been struggling to hold any speed at all as currently I’m on 47/20. So, I have been getting more and more frustrated with it as I am now being offered a regrade to a slower service.
I did get a quote from Cerberus a few years ago, which originally came in at 28K +VAT but I thought I’d enquire see if that cost would dropped at all and I have received the following quote:
We have now received the estimate of the charges from BT. These are detailed below.
Estimated Build Cost: £10,700.00 ex VAT
The build charge includes the estimate for the work and materials required to deliver the service. It also includes the connection charge.
Number of premises passed for FTTP: 26
Please note that, where provided, this is an estimated price based on network records. Openreach are not always able to provide an estimate in this way and a full survey may be required. Installation charges are only confirmed by a full survey once you place an order for the service.
Openreach estimate that the distance to the fibre aggregation node serving your premises is 200 - 399m. The distance to the aggregation node will have an effect on the installation price.
The build estimate includes a reduction for the number of premises passed as these would be able to obtain FTTP as a consequence of your build. Customers at these premises may submit a linked FTTPoD order to share the construction costs. If you wish to consider starting a Linked Order, you can find information on how to do so in the guide attached.
So, I have gone ahead with the full site survey and am I keen to see what they come back with.
I have been going over all the FTTPoD quotes thread, which has been interesting. What seems to be the average wait time from point of paying for the survey to getting the final quote, also at what point is the final payment due?
Thanks
