Allegedly, national house builder's own "phone" service only on new houses?

Interesting article about "phone" provision....... Not sure how this affects those buyers with an existing "TV" monthly fee contract still current when they wish to transfer?

    Officially, the last mile isn't BT anymore but OpenReach (which may or may not be within the same overall group as BT, but is meant to operate independently of the BT that offers services to customers and provide a vendor-neutral service to all the suppliers).


    That's the point I was trying to convey, as it appears that the "last mile" or so belongs to the builder and allegedly, should an owner subsequently require OpenReach provision to their property for any "phone/TV services" not in the builder's "monthly rent/charges", roads/pavements/gardens will have to be dug up and presumably paid for by the property owner........................
