Frequently asked questions

What is Full Fibre?

Full Fibre (also known as FTTP or Fibre to the Premises) uses fibre optic cable all the way from our exchange to your door - no copper wiring involved. That means faster, more reliable broadband for your home or business. Find out more about your broadband options.
Why isn’t Full Fibre available to my home or business?

Building a network to millions of UK premises takes time. Your address may not be connected yet due to the scale of the build, local engineering challenges, or permissions we're still working to secure. Build plans change regularly, so it's worth checking back. See where and when we're building.
Why can my neighbours order Full Fibre but I cannot?

We build the network in stages, so availability can vary even within the same street. Engineering requirements, access routes, and - for flats or rented properties - landlord permissions can all affect timing. If your neighbour is connected, your address is likely close behind. Find out more.
How accurate is the Openreach Full Fibre checker?

The checker is linked directly to our network records and updated regularly as new areas go live. If you think your result is wrong, you can report it and we'll investigate.
