Network access provider Openreach<\/a> (BT<\/a>) has today confirmed our report from last month (here<\/a>) and revealed that they will withdraw, from new sale (provision), the once popular 40Mbps (2Mbps upload) tier for their Fibre-to-the-Cabinet (FTTC<\/a> \/ VDSL2<\/a>) based broadband ISP lines – effective from 24th April 2025.<\/p>\n

As we said last month, Openreach<\/a> does occasionally withdraw legacy tiers, usually due to a lack of demand by Communication Providers (inc. end-customers) or just to help simplify their product portfolio \u2013 often a combination of both. The operator said, “this speed tier has been superseded by faster variants offered at the same or lower price<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

Existing customers on the withdrawn tiers will not be impacted, as the change only impacts new provisions. In this case, the operator’s 40\/2 speed tier has long been superseded by the regulated 40\/10 tier, and so its “stop sell<\/em>” should not come as a huge surprise. The related briefing can be read here<\/a>, although most of it is private.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
