BT community fibre partnership

Anyone been down this route? Our village coughed up the first payment for this last summer. We were given 17 March as a live date. This has passed and no new date provided. Two (empty) cabinets have been installed but no fibre has been strung.

I'm interested to know how long others have waited for the work to be completed.
 
You should have a contact who can keep you informed as part of the partnership?

However I would say that it's not uncommon to be waiting 12 months between the start of work and completion before the service goes live, we've seen a fair few like that (our commercial FTTC cabinet took this long, cab was in place long before we could order). Openreach can hit all sorts of problems with power supply, access and so forth that will cause delays. At an extreme we've seen a few areas wait 18-24 months but that's a bit rarer.
 
Thanks, Mark. Not quite the answer I wanted:( Just hoped that, having taken a large sum of money, they might up the priority.
