The day BT install a decent wire made in the last 50 years let alone Fibre to every home in the UK, is the next time I will ever sign up to a contract with that pathetic telecoms company.........!!!
Looks like I will never have to worry about another BT contract in the next 25 years then!!

This was more referring to the fact that BT will only ever have Fibre at the exchanges, except in perhaps a few lucky circumstances (maybe new builds and business areas).......ie not the paying masses. It would cost far too much for them to replace all the cable in the UK. I cant even get them to replace my outdated perishing bell cable with something more 21st century as its not deemed necessary (my services work, phone line has crackle and ADSL peaks at 512k and drops off every hour, this is deemed acceptable by BT), so id tend not to believe that they will replace it with anything else unless I fork out £175 or more.
