It would of been Openreach, as they own and maintain the network, if you're saying they don't have a wayleave agreement, contact them using https://www.openreach.com/help-and-support/when-to-get-in-touch-with-openreach/complaints-policy

Welcome to this user forum for BT Retail phone and broadband customers.

It would be Openreach that did that, and they are allowed to run "flying wires".

As long as the wire is more than 3m above the driveway/garden and 2m from the building then they’re allowed to run cables overhead as long as they don’t need to access your land to do so.

Anyway, you’ve said they did it with your consent so what’s the issue?

There is another pole where they can easily hang the wire. Now all birds are sitting over my cars. How is possible

Re: wire ove rthe house withour consent

BT didn’t put up a wire that crosses your land .

Putting up a wire that crosses over your  ‘land’ is possible because you don’t  ‘own’ the ‘air’ above your property or land .

As far as using an alternative pole , you can only speculate that by using a nearby alternative pole is even possible, it may not be a suitable pole .

Finally , your issue has nothing to do with BT ,it’s no more BT ‘s problem than Sky or Talk Talk , they are ISP / CP’s , not network providers, it may not even be an Openreach wire , with the proliferation of Alt Nets , it’s entirely possible the wire that now crosses over your land isn’t even an Openreach wire but one belonging to an Alternative Network, even if it is an Openreach wire , it’s still not a BT issue .
