Toob have enjoyed a head start in many areas, especially Southampton which they have near universal coverage now.
Now Openreach has announced Southampton in their build plans, presumably by 2026, it will be interesting to see how Toob react.
Personally I am not a fan of the Openreach offering, but they have the brand/marketing and multiple ISP’s behind them to sweep up those on legacy DSL connections, most of these people won’t care that Openreach uses GPON with a poor upload speed, they will focus on download which is available up to 1.8GBs now.
Will we see Toob push a faster package to compete and stay ahead? XGS-PON is more than capable of delivering a 2.5/2.5Gbe service.
