Sadly this has just happened to me & 8 neighbours. FTTP has been completed for the majority of the road but our phone pole in the middle of the road hasn't had it's fibre connected up and it's just hanging off the pole. It's been like this for nearly 2 years in a forgotten state with OpenReach saying that April 24 is the completion date. Now they've just stated that it's been cancelled and there are further plans and no reason given.

That is the most frustrating part of any rollout. We had CBTs waiting to be connected, when OR came along in the last month, many of the original work had to be changed due to the new fibre spine (stop calling them splines Taras) routes. How long had they been there, since 2/4/20! so I understand your emotions and frustrations. I hope it gets finished quickly.

Yet i'm championing OR for their work to get this done, that I and many others can now have fttp ahead of time(relatively speaking).

This Friday afternoon! It was meant to be this afternoon but i moved it, hilariously one of the neighbours grabbed that spot!. I never felt so happy that somebody else got fttp .

I have to say I am not coping that well. After having been at my parents, they have had Openreach FTTP for the last 2 years I lived there until I moved out with my fiancée to a place with slow VDSL and slow 4G. We have had to resort to Starlink which is great but very expensive. Airband had us in their plans but now they don't, so I am pushing them and they are hoping to be able to sort something out (a property is live about 100 meters up the road, so hopefully it's just a glitch). If we didn't have Starlink, then we'd be struggling on either ~10 Mb/s 4G or ~15 Mb/s VDSL.

Fairly simple. Dump your fiancée and move back with your parents.

I'm not a huge fan of starlink, and musk in general. That aside. You are right to use starlink, i do hope Airbnb can sort something out for you.
