FTTC Cabinet activated, but no VDSL options?


[link to this post]
 
Hi, my friends cabinet has been installed and received the silver lock last week. I have been checking the BT DSL Checker every other day to see when fibre is available as she currently only gets 3Mbps down. The checker has now updated but doesn't actually show VDSL as an availability. As the crow flies, the cabinet is less than 100m away from her property, so there should be no problems receiving VDSL. Can anyone shed any light on this?

It is cabinet 83 on EMBOSTO.

As far as I can see its not gone live as yet and was / is down to go live in August.

Even BTOR Where and when page says that its due to go live soon.

The BT DSL Checker never mentioned VDSL or FTTP On Demand before today, which is why I thought it had gone active, and the silver lock is now attached. I understand codelook advises of an August live date, but I thought these updates on the checker would�ve been it going live.
