We had leaflets come through from Gigaclear years ago saying they would soon be installing full fibre. I've been on a mailing list ever since waiting for it and I'm still on the same FTTC connection

took three years from youfibre saying they were coming soon, to it being installed, but can't complain now with my 1000:1000 connection.

Same, it took about 1.5 years from Gigaclear pushing paper through the door to getting hooked up.

On the other hand, OpenReach announced 4 times over the past 6 years, normally after an alt-net showed interest in expanding here to dissuade them. They still haven't got a start date for the build out.
