BT telephone engineer working on the old wired telephone system, funnily enough our road and area has fibre optic cables installed for telephone, broadband and TV.
@louannwarren Thank you for your interesting comment, Lou Ann the reason is simply down to the cost of fibre optic services being much more expensive to rent than the old wired system, virgin media costs around £100 per month BT wire is only a few pounds:)
@onewing Thank you Babs for your comment, as you can see some people still use wired BT lines, for home telephone and broadband the boardband speeds are much slower but still much cheaper than fibre:)
@louannwarren Yes indeed we do, you pick the services you require and pay the tariff, we have BT for TV, broadband, and home phone, on top we have Netflix, Amazon prime, Eurosport and the Disney channels and I hardly have time to watch any of them, lol just the sport ones:)
