You're looking at the BTWholesale checker, not the Openreach checker.
There's not really a public interface for the Openreach part, just top level yes/no availability on the "where and when" pages.
Hope that makes more sense!

So are you saying Openreach and BT Wholesale have different opinions on where the 500 and 1000 Mbps FTTP services are available?

I don�t know the answer to your question Andrew but why would that surprise you if that were the case?

Essentially yes. The 500 and 1Gb products become available nationwide on launch, with the only exception being the limited ECI OLTs.
If you see a 330 limit on the wholesale checker it's because either it's ECI, or it's a wholesale introduced restriction.
Openreach don't even list a speed for FTTP, availablity is implied.

Openreach don't even list a speed for FTTP, availablity is implied. I�m not sure what you mean by that. All the FTTP speeds are listed in this Openreach price list. Scroll down to the second table for the higher than 330Mbps prices.
My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk. Domains, site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Three 4G, tbb tests 35-45Mpbs down, 9-15 up.

He's talking about the OpenReach availability checker.
It does not list what speeds are available to an individual property.

Have seen a mixture of 330 and 1000 Mbps even on the same exchange, so the nuances are very granular beyond exchange level

But we all know that  . That�s why I couldn�t understand what he meant. Only the BTW checker has ever worked for properties. Or the ISP checkers that basically access its database.

I think Blmcg is referring to another Openreach checker - not accessible to Jo Public (CP only) - which gives another check on FTTP availability. If true, I'm confused as to why BT Wholesale and Openreach aren't singing off the same hymn sheet wrt FTTP speeds/availability, ie why would the BTW checker show 1 Gig FTTP available for a property but the Openreach CP only checker doesn't? Doesn't quite add up...

Same applies in my area. BTW checker shows max available FTTP speed as 1 Gig on my line, yet not far away on a fibre only new build site (IV2 6ET), the checker shows 330 Mbps as max - despite the terminating exchange being the same in both cases (Inverness Macdhui).
