Would it help that I live in a remote area with nearest neighbours being a kilometre away?

The ubiquitous green cabinet that serves everyone else around here is 500 metres away next to the FTTC. AFAI can establish, I am the only EO.

BTW Just been reminded of this promise!

The Government is supporting investment to provide superfast broadband coverage to 95% of the UK by December 2017

That's 24Mbps or more. Roll on Christmas

If it was done by BDUK then it might be worth contacting them. It's possible you were missed out in error.

Certainly missed out!

Harsh but why do you think you are going to be in the 95%?

If it was 100% then no contest, but with a 95% goal and that is across the whole UK so some areas that are already above the 95% are pulling up areas below to create the average.

Projects are working with a massive value for money clause and this means if BT thinks it can help 2 premises rather than a single 1 for the same money then the 2 will get helped first.

My point was, your post was implying you would be able to do it yourself, it being a simple task, so why couldn't Openreach ?

And yet your statement about gun wrapping showed how little you do understand about the issue.

Maybe if your initial post had just outlined the problem, and asked for suggestions ......

Maybe post the dslchecker output, maybe the cabinet number too would help?!

In reply to a post by Zarjaz:

Or maybe had you not responded at all since you appear incapable of useful input to my query and a lack of a sense of humour!

Currently your so-called sense of humour is doing you no favours

Exchange only so no cabinet number

He mentioned a cabinet 500m away
