Doing a random check at IV2 6ED (Openreach FTTP only area) on BT's website brings up the same deal @ £29.99 /m incl line rental for the 40/10 FTTP service. I can't see any options for a data only service which would be slightly cheaper.

Vorlon needs to ask his friend if he has been assigned a new BT number at the new build. If he has, it might be a case of just phoning BT and adding the evenings+weekend calls package for £4.50 /m or £9.99 /m for anytime calls. If the developer has already hard wired the FVA port to the tel sockets in the house then I don't see why an Engineer visit would be required.

The last I checked BT do not sell FTTP without a voice service.

Either a copper line is used for voice or FVA is used for FTTP only areas.

The only exclusion to this was ECI only exchange areas. This should only affect a small amount of FTTP lines over the country.

You can check the back of the OpenReach fibreONT to see if it's manufactured by ECI.

Thanks for the feedback Guys. I can update him with the options you've explained and I think he'll speak to BT as his mobile signal is very poor (new forest area).
