Its clearly a database error, the existing wholesale records are as follows

25A - FTTP available

25A (ground floor flat) - FTTPoD only
25A (first floor flat) - FTTPoD only

25A is the overall building that comprises of separate ground and first floor flats, this record should not exist and the availability should be transferred to either the ground or first floor flat or both.

Funny when I checked I could have sworn 25a first floor flat had WBC FTTP availability on the DSL checker, but it doesn’t , so as stated obviously an addressing issue that the formwize submitted to OR may address, ( no pun intended )

The addresses in that road are the worse I personally have ever seen, not only do they have the complexity of 25 and 25a they also having 25a ground floor flat and 25a first floor flat its just crazy, courier drivers must absolutely love it down there.

It probably made sense before someone carved houses up into flats.

There's a row of houses around here which go 3, 3A, 5, 7, 7A, 7B which have all been there for as long as the road has existed (60+ years at a guess). I have no idea why they wouldn't just give them a number when it was all laid out.

Okay, so I've bought FTTP from BT for 25a and got an Openreach engineer coming out on the 29th to install the bits, hopefully they just run the cable up and it's all sorted.

Would have gone EE but their website never works always get a technical error, even if it is part of BT, oh well.

I've signed up to the BT Community forum, asked for the Mod assistance and asked about needing helping with the ORDI Openreach data integrity.

Hopefully they get back to me on it all, I'll keep the post updated.

Thank you all for the replies though and pointing me in the right direction/giving me realisation haha. It's very much appreciated.

Man, don't even joke about the courier deliveries it's a nightmare haha. I've had packages delivered to the complete wrong place up the road, take a pic and off they go.

But yeah it definitely seems like an address error.

Really appreciate everyone messaging.

So, internet is all up and running, all installed to the 25a South Street address.

BT Moderator on the other forum has put through the ORDI request and it should all be proceeding fully now.

Many thanks all, problem solved for me!

Very nice, I think you benefited from a database glitch.

I would expect for MDU, the address for the building itself to block an FTTP order, and then the individual flats would either be available (approved wayleave or classified as SDU), or not available (wayleave required).
