Cuckoo Oak. Always makes me chuckle 😅

I'm looking forward to the day when the entire Cuckoo Oak exchange area has Openreach FTTP available, what I'm not looking forward to is the running commentary of getting to that point 😎

And here's me thinking you hated Openreach

Its going to be another episode of the 5G masts saga in Cuckoo Oak all over again

If that happens then maybe a sabbatical is required.

Fingers crossed for you Max!

Massive fingers crossed for you and that you finally have full fat fibre soonish™

Can't wait. I haven't decided yet which full fibre product should I sign up? 160/30 or 330/50 or 500/75?

Excellent News!

Here’s hoping.

I went for 500/75 with Aquiss

500/75 sound great My SoGEA contract ended in December 2025, might have to wait until the contract has expired!

Not yet connected, see my post on here, but I am thinking it will be a great speed post connection.

My FTTC G.Fast contract ended last year, but I did not have an price rises (as part of the contract agreement) so I stayed as I was on a monthly contract until in December OR e-mailed to say FTTP was available.

U won't regret moving to Aquiss ISP. Best support by miles ahead!

I went with 330/50. I'd only save £3 by halving the speed to 160/30, but it costs an extra £5 to increase to 500/75, and I'd barely notice the difference.

How true I hardly see no difference from my previous G.fast 160/30 and 330/50 (the higher I get is 265/34 from G.fast modem). But SoGEA 80/20 jump to FTTP 330/50 will be a big difference.
