To be clear here, there are *TWO* different things happening. One is that 
the PSTN service ends on 31st January 2027 for everyone (maybe except for 
certain organisations who have temporary extension/exemption).

The second one is the move to Full Fibre from ADSL/FTTC/GFast, they are 
not necessarily connected that work is not expected to get to 98% of the 
UK till around 2030 (it is over 80% I believe at the moment).

Also Virgin Media is also a different situation altogether.
