In my area Homeworks was on offer before the area was ready for 300Mb. 200Mb had been available for months.

There was no announcement when 300Mb became available. I discovered it when I entered my postcode and selected an alternative house number in the street. If I selected my own number it told me what I was already buying into, but not that 300Mb was available.

BTW If you are thinking of going with 300Mb the speed is great especially the 20Mb upspeed. BUT, and it's a big BUTT, SH3 is fraught with difficulties if you opt for modem-only mode. If you are happy with limited router facilities, and want to use it in router mode, it is just fine for ordinary wifi and ethernet networking.
