That minimum guarantee is curious, surely they don't only have 10 customers per PON?

No difference to BT offering a 700Mb minimum on a product their supplier guarantees 110Mb/s on a GPON 30 way split.

It's never going to be possible if everyone utilises it all at once, but that's never the case.

Its a far higher potential contention ratio on XGS-PON though, given we know OR is only up to 30 customers per 2.5Gbit and not all OR ISPs have a minimum guarantee.  I'd expect VMO to be considerable more customers per PON and be more aggressive to get people onto it, off their legacy offerings.

I suppose it is nonsense really given AFAIK the only thing that allows is leaving your contract early, which doesn't solve anything if the alternatives are with the same underlying network.

Well it is nexfibre who are building the network, we don't know or can't simply assume they will be overcontended, but a good point...

That's one of the things that really puts me off VMO, constantly having to haggle a new contract as their "special offer" prices are what every other ISP would consider a normal, sane, price.

[Ronski]

Alex, that really frustrates me as well, their prices are expensive, unless you go through the whole, haggle, cancel, retentions thing. Just been through it, as I don't have any other option.

You've got a huge bargaining chip, as you have CF available, retentions should come up with a much better price, but don't forget to factor in the April price rise.

[Chrysalis]

Yep, the problem is I dont want to be tied in.

External work done they are side by side the wires even run parallel.

What does the internal install look like? I presume the fibre goes direct to the hub from the CSP, no internal demarcation "point" as such?
