It's hardly whinging and moaning to be unhappy when right at the edge of the rollout. Having worked with community here I sympathise greatly with those who had to wait and were stuck on sub-1Mb while those literally across the road were running at 40-80Mb.

Don't get me wrong, I sypathise too, I was more on about those already on 20Mb+

Some areas were I believe covered by Superfast Cymru. G.fast will be a different story, however it can use the infrastructure that that project built, along with using the existing cabinets to help with backhaul.

Indeed it does. The pilot starts this summer in Cherry Hinton and Gillingham.

Hmm. I may or may not own a house there.

I should imagine 300Mbps will be on offer within the next 3 years with G Fast but the roll out will be slow and painful.

I know what you mean about slow and painful roll outs.

I hope they roll out G Fast better or more quickly than they have FTTC,
I live in a pretty urban area within Greater London and still can't get anything better than ADSL via BT's infrastructure.

I can only assume BT/Openreach have given up on competing in this area with VM when their fastest product is not much better than VM's slowest.

It would be nice to have some competition I could contemplate switching to but luckily so far VM haven't realised I can't get any decent alternative to them when I renegotiate my contract with them every 18 months or so
