Broadband - Options

My exchange currently has 3 LLU providers, I'm looking to switch and noticed that FTTC is schedule for March this year. Would I be better holding off switching, or at least holding off committing to another contract?

Can I expect more options with FTTC planned? or will it just be a case of the current providers still being the only options?

    I wouldn't count on that March date being kept: my own local fibre provision is now nearly 10 months late, having already been rescheduled 3 times by OR.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Why are you switching? Price, speed, reliability? Who will you be switching from?

    Switching from Sky, whilst I can't fault the service, I feel it isn't value for money. Currently paying £25 a month for phone and unlimited broadband.

    I just feel I could make a saving on that £300 a year outgoing.
