Check postcode coverage
Use local Ofcom data to see whether full fibre is common in the postcode and local authority area.

Move from postcode context to an exact-address check
Openreach full fibre can be sold by several retail broadband providers. A postcode can show strong FTTP coverage while one building or address remains unavailable, so use local context first and then compare exact-address checks.
Check your area
Enter a postcode to start the coverage check
Use the result as local context. The provider or network must still confirm the full property address and order status.
Three-stage check
How to avoid confusing rollout with order-ready service
Compare retail providers
BT, EE, Sky, TalkTalk, Vodafone, Plusnet and others may use Openreach, but package availability still varies.
Verify the exact address
Check the full property and estimated speed with the chosen provider before ending an existing service.
Understand the result
Openreach rollout, provider availability and order status are different checks
Local coverage context
The LinkSpeed lookup shows postcode-level full-fibre context from the Ofcom dataset. It helps establish whether FTTP is common locally, but does not promise service to one property.
Wholesale network
Openreach supplies the access network used by multiple retail providers. A network result should therefore be followed by checks with the providers you are considering.
Exact-address order check
Provider systems confirm whether the full address can order now, needs engineering work or has an address-record issue. Flats and new builds often need extra validation.
Installation constraints
Duct, pole, building entry, landlord permission and wayleave issues can affect an installation even when nearby properties already have FTTP.
LinkSpeed coverage context uses Ofcom Connected Nations Spring 2026 data. It is not a direct live Openreach ordering database, so always complete the provider address check before cancelling an existing service.

Coverage question
Can different Openreach providers show different availability?
Yes. Providers can use different product ranges, address records and sales rules even when they use the same underlying Openreach network. Confirm the exact address with more than one suitable provider.
