Forgot to also say that there is also now usually a cost implication in
that often ISP's now make full fibre cheaper than a slower FTTC copper
based service as they are keen to get everyone on to fibre.
My father changed from FTTC /PSTN services last month and it went without
a hitch and he is a technophobe!
He also managed to reduce his bill as well get double the speed.
I'm not saying it is always like that but there are some real chancers who
call themselves champions of the old and vunerable who a peddling nonsense
and usually pop up in media from time to time.
