New Fibre Install

[JLB01]

Hi,

I received an offer today to upgrade to ful Fibre (100) for no extra cost.

I accepted this offer, as currently my broadband signal is shocking. it was poor to start with, and I have since built an extension over it, knowing I was going to move the point of enty to the house.

I was in the process of arranging moving the POE with ex BT engineer.

So my question is, will this be a new fibre connection to my house from the junction box in the pavment ? or will it be the old connection in copper which I will therefore have to carry on arranging moving the POE.

I have a duct in the ground ready for the new connection to be installed. just need what is going to be installed.

from a previous post I read this may be useful.

there are no overhead cables in our road.

It is an overhead feed with possible line of sight issues.  So fttp exists but may be trees in the way

[JLB01]

Don't quite understand that. There is no pole near my house. Unless they are coming across the back gardens.

Or daisy chaining ?

I have a junction box in the pavement outside my house

Unfortunately that doesn't help if the local optical cable distribution is overhead.

Perhaps try a few neighbouring addresses in the BT Wholesale lookup to confirm.

So will they end up daisy chaining ? From road to house, across back  to back gardens to my house ? 
seems odd. Unsightly for me and the neighbours !

All we can go by is the lookup results, which as @cookiemonsteruk said indicates a (problematic) overhead connection.

If there aren't underground Connectorised Block Terminals (CBTs) in the vicinity then ducting cannot be used because the fibre just isn't there.
