BT has opened a new high street shop to promote fibre broadband in London's Muswell Hill - the location for one of its two fibre to the cabinet (FTTC) pilots, along with Whitchurch in South Wales.
Residents of London's N10 district are being invited to try the FTTC service for free until January 2010, with the telco targeting its existing broadband customers with letters offering a free taste of fibre.
A BT spokesman said thousands of its customers in the two areas have so far requested to be part of the pilot.
Engineers started work on hooking them up at the end of last month.
