Have you tried contacting virgin business? Our building not far away on lever street paid £2000 to have Virgin extend to it.

We now pay £60 for 200mbit and business phone line this is using coax but the speeds are always good.

Recently they also added the fibre packages if we want to upgrade.

4G is mentioned, it is a very valid option. But I need to push the 100's of gigabytes upload in data, no provider seems to support anything more than about 30GB which is pathetic and way out my use range.

This came up on another thread recently for 4G...

£44 / month for 50GB allowance with 20GB top ups available at £20 so roughly £1/GB all in.

The big bad wolf BT has an example 30:30 EFM circuit at £409pcm (ex VAT)as an example. Pretty sure you are in an EFM enabled exchange area so it is worth asking for a quote as a marker for others to beat.

There are quite a few other providers in the Manchester area that provide their own fibre services ( It is close to being or may already be unregulated by OFCOM due to competition in the access market for services above 2Mb) so you need to search for local providers and not take the national picture as a guide.

As others have said 100Mb :100Mb will be more in the £600 ex VAT range.

Actually a quick search came up with one that Quotes £491 for 100Mb:100Mb for your post code, cheaper for 100:50 !
This is not a recommendation as I know nothing about the supplier! just an example.

EFM should work out the cheapest.

If he's in an apartment the install should be far cheaper as the copper wiring required is already there.

But typically an EFM circuit would require 4 or more pairs, the apartment he's in may only be fed via a 2 pair cable, which is where it would get complicated again. Or the DP might not have enough spares.

His postcode is quite a way from the exchange so EFM will need 4+ pairs and may struggle to get above 10:10.

He really needs native fibre, but being central Manchester there are quite a few options and cheaper than most places.

Hyperoptic say they are looking at your postcode.

I have no options of FTTC otherwise I would be going that route.

Postcode is M4 1PP ( City centre )

Just done some rough pricing for you based on this postcode and would be a install of £0.00 and around £375.00 per month - would need to know a few more details to confirm the pricing.

Read the site rules which are in the FAQ section about commercial solicitation

I had thought about reporting but the FAQ says:

However, we do not have a problem with users posting links to their web sites in signatures, or posts provided their posts are materially useful and are not simply seeking to promote their products

So as it was a direct response for a request about lease lines I assumed it would fit the rules? A user asking for a suggestion of a supplier and a supplier responding I assumed would be OK?
