Thanks, but my lack of technical knowledge makes it difficult to understand you, sorry.
I want to leave TalkTalk ASAP.

Are you out of the minimum term with TalkTalk?
As I said if you go full fibre you'll get new cabling into your property so you'll need to think about location, remembering the power point requirements.
Lots of useful videos online explaining exactly how this works.

Why?
It's relevant when considering other options.
Are you in contract? If so, how long to run?

Not clear if FTTP is even an option.

Very true. The OP will need to check what options might be available.

I pay £30 per month for advertised speed 67 mb/s!!!!! The speed is not tooo much of an issue for me, but the price is (went up from £24 to £30). When Shell was bought by TalkTalk in 2024 I, by mistake, didn't switch and remained with them. I've been seeing it as a personal failure and I was looking forward to the end of the contract.
Now I can switch!
I don't use the landline and now even my elderly mother uses whatsapp so I could get read of the landline.
Thanks for explaining what part-fibre means.

I will have to read stgh online. Full fibre might end up costing too much.

In which case you should return to the MSE broadband checker you mentioned in your original post and see what is available at your address. You can filter out needing a landline which might get the cost down a bit.
Don't worry about full fibre being more costly, the actual conversion/installation from part to full fibre is at no charge to the user. There should be services available on full fibre (aka FTTP) that are similar/same to that you get now, both in terms of speed and hopefully at less cost.
