Currently with Voda broadband Superfast 2 on Openreach ADSL that tops out at 36Mb/s guaranteed speed, out of contract and overpaying £32/month.
Openreach said Nov 2023 for FTTP but that slipped to "Before end 2026" and again to "Not yet available" . Pathetic
I'm considering going to mobile as have a O2 5g mast that achieves 300Mb/s nearby but can't find an unlimited sim to put with a ZYXEL NR5103E that will work without restrictions.
Alternatively Virgin Media M250 264 Mb/s for £28.99/month or scratching around Hey Broadband who are live 10 houses away with a shiny new junction box. Can anyone confirm it is a Hey Broadband box ? **EDIT I've seen from another posting it is actually a Virgin media cabinet which will explain the lack of a date from Hey Broadband and the "plastic pelicases hanging from telegraph poles in the adjoining streets that will likely be Hey (my road has underground ducts ONLY.) > It doesnt explain the Openreach FTTP dates being all over the place though
Hey's "Customer support" is offshore and knows naff all.
Any suggestions ?
