I wonder, wouldn't make more sense for Chorus to structure the fibre broadband to those who actually want it. I hear so often about low uptake in areas which have fibre available (even though installation is free), and as in the article above, Chorus are coming up with reasons to try and convince people to get it. Yet other areas which have people who really want it, but have to wait years.

What they should have done at the start is put out an opportunity for people to lodge an expression of interest in getting fibre. Then if they had a high amount of interest in a certain area, they would just roll out fibre to that area first.

That sounds too logical, and is therefore not the Chorus way

I'm glad Chorus didn't win the contract to roll out fibre here, who knows how long the wait would have been

But we are getting a hunderwasta? Why you need fibres?
