This is after the original UK LLUer, Bulldog, had such severe problems that OFCOM was called in to investigate. Wanadoo/Orange, a LLU wannabe, has revealed severe problems in the past as well.
According to the todays BT Openreach figures, we are now up to 682,432 unbundled lines and the weekly amounts have dropped significantly in the last couple of weeks (the last 4 weeks have been 10k,2k,17k,27k). It is still taking 10 days to complete an order.
