Gig2 on HFC

Hello, Are there any plans to let HFC users upgrade to Gig2? I think it is very unfair to us that we are unable to upgrade our packages to this given we are absolutely sure the network can take it....

My area.

1800Mbps on Openreach checker, however, no wholesale of 1800Mbps, so no ISP can provide the service at that speed.

 

I'm currently on Gig1 with VM so 1152Mbps, and best Openreach ISP is 900Mbps.

    Forgot about EE.

    Not sure on 'Zen Wholesale'.

    Still, not as many options available as in other areas.

      Okay so gone from 'nowhere' to 'not as many options available'. That applies everywhere. You're going by the BT Wholesale checker and would get the same result wherever you look. Might not be as many options at 1800 as there are at 900 but still more than VM offer.

      Check https://www.idnet.com/home-broadband.php for availability of Zen Wholesale.
