I have had to check the app menu daily to see if I had the update. 
Is there anyone who can help me feel less ignorant....please....
Oh, I am in the PE27 post code area. |

I'm hoping this is accurate and up-to-date.
This explanation might help you. Just like BT, VM is a hybrid system, not pure fibre.
