TalkTalk the UK broadband provider could launch it’s own fibre broadband network according to Charles Dunstone, the Chief Executive of the Carphone Warehouse.
Mr Dunstone told the Financial Times that they are looking into the feasibility of TalkTalk launching it’s own fibre optic network possibly by even joining up with a rival broadband provider to fund install it.
The talk comes after it is believed that TalkTalk are one of the broadband providers who are not happy about the proposed agreement from BT Wholesale for using their new fibre network and claim that it does not give them enough scope for their own innovation.
BT are investing around £1.5bn in their new fibre optic network, and have called it BT Infinity and have already started rolling out and hope to have it available to 10 million UK homes by 2012.
