Judging by the number of people that also go this email, and was seemingly out of the blue. I think that the chance that these emails were sent in error is quite high. Unless Openreach has decided to do a massive scale back of deployment?

Only time will tell. I will be very disappointed if it's not.

If I were forced to bet I'd go with "properties moving between different projects internally" and someone has for whatever reason linked up the system responsible for emailing consumers to it.

Myself and my neighbour had this email also in S80 3QX.

Sincerely hope it is a mistake as been waiting patiently for FTTP, they already rolled it out for about half our estate last year.

Less than 500m away they have it and pretty certain I've seen them doing work recently on the estate so no idea why they would suddenly decide to not finish doing the rest of the estate.

In reply to a post by Eeeps:

Almost get the impression that they have decided to close my local exchange and supply FTTP from Macclesfield where FTTP rollout is still occurring.

FTTP isn't served from local exchanges anyway, only from larger "head-end" exchanges. Whether or not your exchange *area* is in line for an FTTP upgrade, is different from what exchange will serve it.

When the copper network is (eventually) retired, something like 5 in 6 exchanges will close.

I had the same email a couple of weeks ago. Today i have had another email from Openreach saying the last email was sent in error and now my street is back on their build plan. I have checked today and now full fibre is showing available.

Interesting! Thanks. I'm sure that's what's happened. Openreach have been busy in my mum's village and area for a few weeks, clearly doing pole-related work, so I'm sure at worst it's just a delay.

Got the following from Openreach today...

'We're really sorry it looks like you've recently received one or more emails from us in error saying that you've been removed from our Ultrafast Full Fibre broadband build plans.

We've identified and fixed some issues with our data and systems that caused these emails to be sent out by mistake, and we're pleased to confirm that you're still in our build plans.'

The web checker has also changed back too.

Mark at ISPReview got the same thing so queried it with Openreach and they found the bug in their system.

Looks like it has affected a lot of people.

The checker is back showing the 'correct' result for coming soon now, looks like they've undated the database.

FTTP has gone live to order in the CH5 3HS area since last week and have just placed an order with A&A.
I understand that FTTP is also now available for part of CH5 3DG.

Cheers!
