TalkTalk’s CEO Says, Copper Better than Fibre Broadband

Chief executive of TalkTalk Dido Harding is of the belief that the fibre broadband market is not much competitive if compared to the copper market. It is therefore as per a recent report that she is expressing a room for more competition in the superfast broadband market of the UK.

The Huawei Broadband Forum in London has heard by her that a boost in the competition would help the broadband market to enhance its superfast services. Since, the present day sees BT Retail and Virgin Media as the two suppliers of a superfast broadband with some 95% consumers going for the same.

But, copper is overdoing fibre, since copper makes a difference in what it offers and the prices of the same. As per the findings, the Birmingham City Council has proposed a plan to develop a public sector funded network of superfast broadband and BT and Virgin Media protested against the same.

Since, they are of the belief that the plans mean a complete waste of public money and their own fibre networks could bring significant overbuild. Following the same, the CEO has made the comments. "We're not in as good a place as we like to think we are in terms of a competitive landscape for superfast broadband", she said.
