Network access provider Openreach (BT) has once again tweaked their Proactive FTTP Upgrades process for ISPs, which will allow providers to optionally reduce the normal lead time down to just 15+ calendar days (vs the default 6 weeks). Normally it’s consumers that initiate an upgrade, but with proactive upgrades the initiator is your ISP (this may help with copper to full fibre migrations).

A new study by comparison site Go.Compare, which used data gathered from the ONS, internal data and a YouGov survey of 2,000 UK adults in May 2025, has claimed that over 77% of broadband users don’t switch ISPs as regularly as would be ideal to maximise their savings. Plus, of those users, 6% don’t switch more often because they forget to look for a better deal.

Greg Mesch, the original founder and current CEO of the UK’s largest alternative full fibre (FTTP) broadband network for ISPs, CityFibre, is reportedly to step down after setting the Openreach competitor up some 14 years ago in January 2011.
