Humming tapping noise on cable

[Antedge]

• Was wondering if anyone could help recently had a bedroom built and this is close to overhead telephone line. When the wind is just right we get this tapping / humming noise at first blamed roofer and he has been back and trimmed felt and checked for loose tiles and he has suggested it could be the nearby telephone cable. Any ideas welcome

Its Openreach not BT Retail who look after the external network. Unless your phone line is actually connected to a pole via an overhead cable, its very unlikely any noise could be transmitted into the property.

You could ask Openreach, but they may refer you to your Service Provider.
