This is a sample, not a street map, and a line can change. The address check is the answer that counts.
What we found in the village
We'd rather say this plainly: not every address around Skirlaugh can be connected yet, and full fibre is the exception here so far. Your address check gives you a straight yes or no.
Full fibre, or fibre to the cabinet?
Full fibre means the cable runs all the way to your house, not just to the green box in the street. The last stretch of a fibre-to-the-cabinet line is still copper, which is why it tops out at a much lower speed.
Which one you can have depends on what's been built to your door, so we check your address rather than the town.
Switching from BT, Sky or TalkTalk
We reach your house down the same Openreach cables they use, so there's nothing to dig up. You tell us to go ahead and we deal with your old provider. Don't cancel anything yourself, because that's how people end up with a gap.
Your phone number comes with you. Your line will run over broadband whoever you're with, so it needs power. If anyone in the house relies on that phone, say so when you order and the battery backup is free.
Who you ring
A small team in East Yorkshire. If it's our end, we fix it. If it's the line into your house, that's the network's engineer, but we report it, chase it and tell you what's happening. You ring us either way.
