Wiki suggests that trials are taking place in various places (scroll right down to the UK deploynent section). This is pretty old news however so whether it still applies is anyone's guess!!

I thought BT were already using VDSL2 for FTTC and the speed boost (to 80Mbps) would simply be a case of switching to a different profile and increasing the upper frequency limit?

Yes Ade, that's correct.
In view of the dog's breakfast aka FTTC rollout, I suspect I'm going to regret asking this... is there any schedule for the 80Mbps upgrade?

Not as yet. Not 100% sure that the necessary changes have been agreed by OFCOM/NICC.
My impression is that it wont be automatic either, but as a tiered product offering.

I think that was my original question - perhaps not posed so succinctly...........

No worries - I guess however we pose the question the answer will remain the same (faint echos of a song there somewhere!!).

Are you asking me specifically ?
I was just agreeing that the current product is VDSL2 already, and that the speed increase, if and when, would be a profile change.

It was just a general query, but it had to get hung on somebody's post and (in flat mode) yours was at the bottom
It was unnecessary anyway, I must have had a major senior moment and completely misread the OP
