Yeah I emailed her. I got a reply of her assistant after the general election stuff started, stating BT said they upgrading copper cables to improve speeds. However that was due to be done by last oct so clearly got fed a load of rubbish. In the same letter it stated the area wont be getting FTTC due to confidental commercial reasons. She is on BT's board and it would have been a nice goodbye present from her, but I guess she wasnt bothered enough to push the issue hard. Prior to that she was a good local MP I thought, helped me with other issues effectively, this one in theory should have been easy for her given her position. Our new MP seems useless and doesnt even reply to anything.

However I am not sure if I would jump to infinity now, data I have seen shows people have packet loss issues, high pings due to interleaving (DLM) and even still getting line dropouts. So adsl issues still seem to plague VDSL, the difference been that simply VDSL is much faster. Of course also any service on VDSL at the moment is using BT wholesale which means very high contention as isp's will only budget for less than 100kbit per user on usage, VM do budget higher then that.
