1) Infinity option 3 is FO including from the cab to the house
2) VM claims their broadband is faster because they use fibre instead of copper e.g.:
or
BT, which actually does offer FTTP, also only claims their Infinity product is "fibre based". Nowhere do they claim it's fully fibre optic which VM implies several times as above.
VM cable uses far, far more copper than an equivalent BT connection yet they claim it uses none because it's fibre optic. In fact, the only reason it's faster is because they use more copper.

Technically that is true though? It DOES come via fibre optic cable (they don't stipulate ONLY via fibre optic) and it also doesn't come by copper telephone wire. Everything you have highlighted is correct?
I have as many serious reservations about Virgin as the next guy but you are being incredibly biased - I don't see how what they are saying is deceitful but BT advertising Option 2 as 'fibre broadband' is fine? You can't have it both ways.
