A new briefing indicates that Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) is extending some limited exemptions to their current “stop sell<\/em>” on new Wholesale Line Rental (WLR) and related broadband ISP products by one year, which means the exemptions will now be removed on 25th March 2025 instead of this year.<\/p>\n

In case anybody has forgotten, all Openreach<\/a>-based UK phone providers and broadband ISPs are currently working toward the final switch-off date (end of 2025) for old analogue phone services (PSTN \/ POTS), such as by adopting alternative all-IP (internet) based voice solutions – these require some form of broadband connection in order to function (i.e. internet based phone solutions become an optional extra).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The Stop Sells Page<\/strong><\/a> on Openreach<\/a>\u2019s website has more detail on the change, and there\u2019s also a related blog piece<\/a>. ISPreview\u2019s summary of the recent stop sell may also help (here<\/a>).<\/div>\n

As part of this Openreach have already introduced a “stop sell<\/em>” on sales of their Wholesale Line Rental<\/strong> (WLR) service in September 2023 (here<\/a>), which underpins a lot of broadband and phone lines in the UK. The WLR product portfolio relies on BT<\/a>’s old Public Switched Telephone Network<\/strong> (PSTN), hence why you often see both being mentioned in the same breath (it can get confusing).<\/p>\n

However, one lesser-known aspect of this is that Openreach included some time-limited exemptions to the aforementioned “stop sell<\/em>“, which applied to a small portion of premises (homes and businesses) – often in remote rural areas with older setups – where neither Openreach’s full fibre (FTTP<\/a>) nor SOGEA (standalone variant of FTTC<\/a> \/ VDSL2<\/a> on copper lines) based broadband services are yet available.<\/p>\n

The previous goal of these exemptions was to allow more time so that the network operator could carry out work to ensure that everybody can access FTTP<\/a>, SOGEA or even SOTAP (like SOGEA but for old ADSL<\/a> broadband lines) based products by late March 2024. In addition, Openreach and BT<\/a> have been busy developing a temporary replacement for analogue phone services called ‘SOTAP for Analogue<\/strong><\/a>‘ (check link for full summary), but this won’t be available to new provisions (it’s a migration path for existing lines, such as those used by vulnerable people).<\/p>\n

However, a new briefing<\/a>, and article on Thinkbroadband<\/a>, have both noted that Openreach has extended the aforementioned exemptions to run for an extra year until 25th March 2025<\/strong>. At the time of writing, Openreach have yet to clarify why it will now take a year longer than expected to ensure full availability of their alternative products in such areas, although upgrading some of the oldest parts of their network can be tricky. The fact that the temporary SOTAP for Analogue solution also won’t be ready for launch until later in 2024 may be another factor.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 5th Feb 2024 @ 11:17am<\/strong><\/p>\n

Openreach has informed us that the extension was requested by ISPs in order to give them sufficient time to fully consume SOTAP and its product variants, as well as to launch their own SOTAP based product offerings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
