Has the price of the 900 meg service gone down? it was £50 last time I looked (openreach service).
The price is £45 on their website now and it appears to not be on sale.

My thinkbroadband graph is very clean apart from some red but it's not affecting my connection quality at all so it doesn't worry me.

Apparently they feed the BT poles, so I'll get another overhead line (same as my current FTTP).

Order placed for the end of the month (900 up/down).
Nice, it's a shame they can't use the same cable and ONT. I'm reluctant to move to Cityfibre when it becomes available because of lack of space for another ONT.
