WBC FTTP Waiting List?


[link to this post]
 
Hi,

Sorry if this is a very basic question, but I am currently on exchange DUNFERMLINE on FTTC...but I noticed today that WBC FTTP has been added recently as an option but the availability date is showing as 'Waiting List'

Can I ask, does this simply mean that it is (probably) in the process of having WBC FTTP added to the exchange and that no date has been set/finalised? or possibly it is simply in Openreach's long term plans, but nothing has been set in stone yet?

FTTP On Demand, it says, is Available, but obviously the installation price difference between the two offerings will be massive, I would imagine...

Anyway, is there any way at all to find out if there is even a tentative date for WBC FTTP to be enabled, or are these dates a very closely guarded secret in the upper echelons of Openreach?

Thanks,
Kevin

I've never seen Waiting List for FTTP - only FTTC. Would you mind posting a screenshot? (Cut off the address/phone number)

Sure, no problem...

I wasn't sure how to post an image (from my screenshot) so I just hosted it on my Google Photos account...here is the link

WBC FTTP screenshot

I hope you can see it OK...and as you can see, if you follow WBC FTTP along to the right, it says Waiting List

Thanks

I used to use imgur myself, easy to share images with that. Only reason I don't use it anymore is because I now have a self-hosted solution.

Waiting list is usually down to the final commissioning stages at the headend exchange - i.e. there simply may be no headend unit hahah

Other than the 2 lines of text shown in your screenshot, are there any further lines of text shown beneath the table of results?
