At present, our exchange at Scalford is not ‘unbundled’ i.e. opened to other broadband providers.  See:

http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/EMSCALF

Now see the latest Leicestershire County Council newsletter page on the rural broadband project:

LCC Autumn 14 broadband

Note the paragraph: “This high-speed network is available on an open, wholesale basis to all communication providers, therefore offering Leicestershire households and businesses the benefit of a real choice from a highly competitive market.”

I shall hold LCC and BT to this when Scalford gets fibre next year.
