Thanks, Ian, funnily enough just noticed it today as I was walking back from Co-op. I live in constant hope!

Cabinet 3 is at the crossroads of the Nine Acres / Enstone roads. The old one is on the side of the playing field, the new one is across the road up against the wall. It has yet to have its insides installed.

Thanks Ian. Just going by Open Reach the cabinet does appear to be up by Lees Heights, exact location I am not sure. However, obviously from your detective work, it does appear that we are indeed in for a long wait - typical!!

Putting in a random address for ticknell piece, it is connected to the exchange via cabinet 3.

If you type your phone numb into this link:
https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html
It will report which cabinet you are connected to, the exchange is in the Lees Heights
area but most houses are connected to a local cabinet. Currently the one I know that didn't get upgraded at the end of last year (cabinet 3) is at the Enstone road cross roads is scheduled for end June 2015. Can you confirm if you are on cabinet 3 or is there another cabinet?

There is the possibility that you are connected directly to the exchange which may impose further delays.

I am one of the frustrated few, who due to our location, are still waiting to have our cabinet converted ( apparently it is located somewhere up by Lees Heights). Typically, we appear to be the last to be upgraded, & it appears to be taking forever. Does anyone have any idea what the hold up is? Tried speaking with BT but they just reiterated what was on the 'Openreach' site!
