I think the previous user meant Quest is making no effort to get fiber services going.

I think he's referring to FiOS, he made it seem that way.

No, I'm referring to Qwest not making any effort to use the fiber lines.

Also, I'm very well aware that Verizon is capable of laying down their own lines, but like I said, they can't get the permits to do so since Qwest already has thousands and thousands of miles worth of line laid down here, and Qwest hasn't allowed Verizon to buy or use any of their existing fiber lines. A company can't just be like hey, we're gonna dig up your city and lay down lines so we can give you our service. They have to get the permits to do so, and are unable to here because of the lines Qwest has down.

Yes I know you need permits. But why would Qwest sell or lease their lines to Verizon? That's like Burger King going to McDonalds and asking to buy a part of their store to sell better food. I say better because obviously FiOS is better than their DSL. Makes no sense when you're the majority share holder of internet services in an area. Verizon being such a large company shouldn't be getting denied a permit, but maybe they probably don't make an effort because they don't believe they can justify the costs with the amount of users will buy the service. You can't blame existing ISPs for that.

Opening doors in a new location should be relatively simple for an enterprise with $$$. The more expensive part is the peering between ISPs and major telcos.

Yeah, like Telstra in Australia, government funded and basically a scam.

That was my point.... Qwest won't share their lines because they'll lose money when they're already the minority (Comcast is the vast majority here). And yes, it is hard to get permits to lay service lines when there are already thousands of miles of identical lines already in the ground. As far as Denver see's it, the lines are there, and there's already 2 ISP's providing service to %95+ of the residents here, they have no reason to allow Verizon to lay down more, and have more than likely told them they need to work it out with Qwest/Comcast.

Lost cause then. No way Comcast or Qwest will lease their lines out, but still that's not their fault. More fault lies on your city for not allowing them to pull a permit. Not smart though, could bring your city some revenue in taxes.

Did you get half price for 6 months or something? Because we pay more than that for ADSL2 with BT. It's a great service though, and we get a free upgrade to infinity when it arrives in our area.

£45.72 a month, internet only (line rental included).
