Carphone Warehouse Confirms LLU
Posted: 03rd Nov, 2005 By: MarkJ
Much as rumoured earlier in the week, the Carphone Warehouse has confirmed plans to invest roughly £45m (over three years) in local loop bundling (LLU) based broadband services:
Carphone is to begin what it describes as a "major drive into UK broadband market" in 2006 with plans to install its kit in 1,000 BT exchanges over the next three years giving it access to two thirds of its customers.
The work will be carried out by Carphone's telco Opal, which it acquired in 2002.
"Our intention is to pursue a fully unbundled strategy, enabling us to take control of the switched voice line as well as the broadband connection," said Carphone in a statement.
Sadly we don't yet know exactly when the first new generation of packages can be expected, although early/mid-2006 is as good of a guess as any. More @ The Register.
