Any real gain to update to FTTP over a good FTTC service
Discussion
Currently (EE) have FTTC runs at about 70Mbps D/L (18 U/L), all reliable and appears quick.
WFH, other than that mostly online streaming, maybe 2 at once if that. No gaming.
For extra 80p (£32.50 instead of recently £31.70
), I can update to FTTP at 100Mbps D/L (30 U/L) BUT will lose phone (which we never use really, get the odd call in).
Is it a no brainer to update? (although I'll have to wire a ethernet cable from socket area to router (which is elsewhere in house) as that uses the normal tel cable. But that's not big issue though.
Current contract until Jan 2024 (I think) so can't switch providers anytime soon, so above is only option.

Really not bothered about landline, I assume would have to pay extra for the digital voice one on same number?
If I only had a few months left on contract, I would wait and then haggle etc. however as about 20m to go, that could be 20m with a bit faster speeds etc. for “only” extra 71p a month….
Still procrastinating
Thanks for replies all…
