Cable my street

Tuning in

Hi I'm just wondering if I could get some information if it's likely my street will be cabled in the near future? I noticed there's some cables being installed a street over and further back from there.

I've attached an image to show where they're being installed, we live between Wardle St and Sandal St and are all currently connected to an old bt cabinet and community funding an upgrade would cost us £5k through openreach even though there are fibre enabled cabinets within 20 metres and we live walking distance to the centre of manchester.

Still dealing with this at the moment. The address shows as a wayleave issue. 
I have requested this to be changed via Central housefiles. 
We should have an update by tomorrow.

Thanks campo7, i shall leave it in your capable hands 🙂

Since moving into our house in July 2019 have been hitting a massive brick wall getting decent broadband.

Both poor BT FTTC below 30mb and no Virgin media within the estate despite VM being in most of the village (Ibstock) 

Obviously I was registered interest and got as many people with in the estate to also but still no sign.

Would be great if someone could check/push for my address and the estate in general.

Hi

if you PM me your full address I will happily take a look. 
I can also forward onto the infill department if it looks like we could provide services.

Hi, I post on here every year in the hope that my street in Manchester is going to be cabled soon ... I can't see that I had an answer to my 2019 post but an earlier one said try again in 2020.

Who can I PM my postcode to, to get an update on the situation? Thanks.

Hi - moving house shortly in village north of Cambridge, and annoyingly the VM service stops 4 houses before ours. Any chance one of the kind VM people could check the possibility of extending the lines?

thanks.

Can I pm you my address too? 🙂

I'd love some faster internet and there's definitely virgin in the area
