People with full fibre, what do you find the main benefit of full fibre to be? I have an old 38mb connection and it is more than enough for a house choc full of connected devices.

I don't think the city has quite got its head around these copper values. When they do, hold tight!

I would prefer to see windfall gains from copper sales used to retire debt.

[1224saj] 08/10/2024 14:52

We may all get a special dividend to share the windfall

BT bags £105m from copper wire recycling


BT Group PLC (LSE:BT.A) has received £105 million for recycling old copper wires retrieved from its fast-fibre upgrade programme.

Network subsidiary Openreach said: “As we look to recover and reuse scarce resources like copper in line with our commitment to sustainability, we estimate that as we replace old copper networks with fibre, we’ll be able to recover up to 200,000 tonnes of copper through the 2030s – in line with customer migrations.”


The £105 million was an upfront payment from metal recycling partner EMR for surplus copper cables replaced by fibre optic connections.

Openreach said it recovered 3,300 tonnes of copper in the year to 31 March 2024 with estimates that the programme could eventually see 200,000 tonnes of copper, worth currently about £1.5bn at spot prices

Annual copper demand is projected to grow from 25 million metric tonnes today to about 50 million tonnes by 2035.





I bought in this morning.

smurfy...because competition within the sector leads companies to giving out freebies...3 months free or 6 months half price etc etc...and some of these companies are willing to pay the penalty difference so you can sign up with new provider...

BT rival CityFibre has warned it must raise more money to survive as the rising cost of its broadband rollout pushed debts above £3bn.

The company, which is the largest of the so-called “alt-net” broadband firms taking on BT’s Openreach, said there was “material uncertainty” about its ability to continue because it was reliant on further external funding.

i dont think many here would sell at say 175 anyway....so the speed of the climb doesnt really matter....market can have mine back, maybe depending on dividend at that time, at 350p

[diku] 18/9/2024 11:53

Is that volume on ADVFN for real?...not just here but across the board extremely low volumes...think punters would prefer some volatility...
