      Re: no fibre optic

      There are a few bugs with the checker and people get different results depending on whether they do it via their account, telephone number of address.

      Could I also suggest a friendly phone call too?

      Re: no fibre optic

      Currently Sky Fibre isn't being advertised anywhere, so sadly that won't help.

      In order to check my friend's address I've used Firefox and Opera. By logging out of my own account, I've been able to check her address successfully.

      I am aware that there are a some issues with their on-line checker at the moment though. Various members have reported changing results.
