Re: Beware of the REN

"full fibre" means FTTP. "fibre" (thanks to Virgin) means everything else.

SOGEA has little to do with Openreach FTTP, as it has been possible to offer a data only service over that for a long time. What it does do is allow ISPs to do data-only services on VDSL/G.fast, allowing them to get moving with those VoIP migrations long before FTTP happens.
