just reduce your IF logic to one condition at a time and systematically isolate. maybe the problem is @hasUFB? If you set this to true earlier in the code and it's not coming from a field, then use @hasUFB == true without the quotes as this could be a boolean, not a string.

And I'm using this IF statement to print the content block; %%[IF @newFibre!="False" THEN]%% However, it is still determined not to print the content :( Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've gone with example 2 and your suggestion around using AttributeValue. In printing the variable values, my test variable: %%=v(@hasUFB)=%% and %%=v(@fibreDate)=%%. And may as well print %%=v(@newFibre)=%% returned; True and 4/21/2020 12:00:00 AM. And may as well print False. Perplexed as I updated the AMPscript block to: %%[ VAR @fibreDate, @newFibre SET @fibreDate= AttributeValue("Opportunity:Fibre_Service__r:First_Fibre_Connected_Date__c") IF @hasUFB == 'True' AND not empty(@fibreDate) THEN SET @newFibre = "False" ENDIF ]%%
