Openreach is celebrating the milestone of reaching 90% coverage of its full fibre rollout across Northern Ireland – with the region becoming the first within the Openreach UK network to hit this target.

YouFibre has connected its 100,000th customer, doubling its base in the last nine months.
The altnet’s network now passes nearly one million properties in almost 100 towns. It secured a further £147.5m in March.
MD Ryan Battle, said: “We know it is hard for customers to let go of their existing broadband provide and potentially put their whole online life in jeopardy for the new kid on the block.”
