No, FTTP on Demand is a different product.
That costs many thousands of £££ to install.

The top line of the availability download does show WBC FTTP as currently available.

FTTC isn't full fibre.  It's Fibre to the Cabinet, which is what the "normal" fibre packages use.  For full fibre you need FTTP, which shows up on that checker on the left hand side as "WBC FTTP".  It isn't worth ringing in to ask about that.

Top line header shows WBC FTTC availablity date ( as it does on all checks ), which I assumed @agedgopher  was misreading as FTTP.

Agreed, FTTP is not available

I misread your FTTC as FTTP!

@porterballs 

Also, underneath the table you will probably find something like;

 

The exchange is not in a current fibre priority programme

WLR is currently available at the exchange

SOADSL is not restricted at the exchange

 

 

FTTP is not available

 This, I believe, indicates I'm not likely to get FTTP any time soon.

My apologies to everyone.

Teach me to read more closely and not see what I wanted to see!
