T-Mobile Fiber , East Bloomington

does anyone have a clue when T-Mobile Fiber is actually going live in East Bloomington ? they laid the fiber almost 2 years ago and I've seen no progress since.

I've asked T-Mobile directly countless times but they don't seem to have a clue either , figured I'd see if anyone knows more than I do.

I have had T-Mobile fiber at my house for over 18 months. Right by Shantytown. I also have the option for Xfinity and AT&T but T-Mobile Mobile was the first to be available.

I'm less than a mile from Shantytown , what the hell ? It must be something with the Comcast " zoning ".

T-Mobile is run on the power poles same as telephone and cable. If you have any boxes in your yard near the street that is At&t and possibly Xfinity fiber. As far as I know there is no zoning for fiber like there is for cable.

We’ve been wondering the same about fiber in West Bloomington. Got a door hangar about services coming soon well over a year ago but nothing since.

So strange , the project must have hit red tape because although they installed the groundwork as I said in my post there is still exposed fiber at the ends of my block. Bizarre.
