Many providers are currently working to the original Dec 2025 deadline to get customers off this network, although vulnerable users are supposed to have until <strong>31st January 2027<\/strong>. But it&#8217;s not always quite that simple.<\/p>\n<p>The above dates also apply to any broadband product (SMPF or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a>) provided using a WLR PSTN line. But according to ISPreview&#8217;s sources, some of PXC&#8217;s partners were recently taken aback when they were informed that the company had decided to withdraw their SMPF line products by the end of July 2025; earlier than they had been expecting.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The issues with this are that no one is able to provide alternative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/adsl\">ADSL<\/a> [legacy copper broadband] services in some of these areas due to the Copper Stop Sell, and the WLR withdrawal due December 2025<\/em>,&#8221; said one of those impacted by the change.<\/p>\n<p>Providers in this boat feared they would either see their SMPF broadband products cease (i.e. customers disconnected) or have to convert to fully unbundled lines (MPF) at short notice, which is a tricky thing to do (note: MPF will eventually go the way of the dodo too). The good news is that PXC has now decided to give providers a little more time to make the change, but only a little.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Extract from PXC&#8217;s Letter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Following our previous communications in April 2024 and May 2025, we\u2019re writing to inform you that the stop serve date for selected SMPF circuits has been extended to 30th September 2025.<\/p>\n<p>We understand that some Partners have faced challenges migrating services, so to support you, we&#8217;ve extended the deadline to give you additional time to help ensure a smoother transition.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t yet migrated your affected circuits, please ensure they are moved to MPF, SOGEA, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> immediately.
