I've signed up to the 65MB/s Sky Broadband Superfast but I just assumed it would be FTTP, that's what I have now with BT. Can somebody asure me that I'm not going to be sorely disappointed when a copper connection is required to get me on the internet next week! I'll have to do a load of rewiring to accomodate that and it will be rubbish.
It's actual that clear on the Sky website which packages are FTTC and which are FTTP, obviously the megafast one will have to be FTTP but at the slower end it could be either.

Even Openreach aren't silly enough to go backwards and start re-installing copper lines 😆

Our "Superfast" is constantly buffering and other villagers claim the same for Sky.
