Re: Copper cabling, crap service
Regardless of who does it, FTTP should be mandatory for all new builds, with infrastructure to support connecting to any provider in the market.
Last time I moved house I dismissed all the new build options because BT had an exclusive contract to install ADSL in every single development I saw. As VM were not permitted to run their cable until the development was finished, they faced the full expense of digging up the road, making it less economically viable, effectively handing BT a monopoly.
