How to get Fibre !!??

Hello
My local fibre cabinet is enabled for "superfast Fibre"
But Openreach says capacity is too high and therefore I cannot get any ISP to help sign me up to Fibre. Thus I am stuck on bog standard ADSL which is utter rubbish, a download speed of 1.3bb/sec.
Its a ridiculous dilemma and no doubt is very common.
What can I do?
I've contacted Openreach who give no indication whatsoever as to when it "may be enabled for more capacity" if indeed at all.
Help !

It was one of the non-negotiables when I moved in 2010. Bad broadband = house ruled out, no matter what else it had going in its favour. I can't believe that in this day and age people still don't think about it when moving (I don't mean the OP)Proud member of the wokerati, though I don't eat tofu.Home is where my books are.Solar PV 5.2kWp system, SE facing, >1% shading, installed March 2019.Mortgage free July 20230
