The OP was on a 40/10 FTTC service with very low speeds before being moved to a much closer FTTC cabinet, there was no change from an ADSL service.

I'm a little mystified why the OP was on a VDSL package when the speeds were so slow.

Was Eclipse Home Option 1, VM 2Mb & O2 Standard

BT Consumer has been offering ADSL/ADSL2+ customers upgrades to the entry level VDSL2 40/10 package at the same price as ADSL2+, i.e. £24.99/m or £26.99/m depending on which week in the offer cycle

Up till last year my FTTC speeds where lower than that. AFAIK not that unusual.

Why?

I have friends on a sub-3 Mbps VDSL/FTTC service.

And is the VDSL dearer than the ADSL?
