Openreach are a separate company, and nothing to do with BT Retail.

Nine times out of ten it’s a VM Cab but you won’t hear Openreach Engineers complain.
They’re nice easy call outs and free comps. Over the years I’ve probably made well over a £1000 in call outs to open doors on a VM Cab as have others so please, keep reporting them.
The majority of BT cabs (unless its a DSLAMs) do not contain any circuit boards, so as suggested they are normally virgin boxes
