Re: wire ove rthe house withour consent

@maanhdeeps 

as already posted this has nothing to do with BT Retail  you can try openreach but there is no connection from this forum to openreach

if the wire is not less than 3m above your driveway then there is nothing you can do.  if problem is birds on a wire then try bird scarer

Because sometimes in life, you just have to put up with it.

It’s a very ‘modern’ perspective that everyone should change because you want it to be like that.

Re: wire ove rthe house withour consent

Not to labour the point , but you don’t know if the other pole is suitable or not , and as far as ownership of the wire , it may be Openreach or it may be someone else.

FWIW , there are devices that can fit over and around dropwires that discourage birds from landing on dropwires , but first you would have to establish who that wire belongs to , it may not be Openreach, and then approach the network supplier requesting they look at the issue .

BT are not a network provider, they didn’t put the dropwire up , hence the reply on here that any complaint towards BT is misplaced , you could ask the property owner of where this new wire goes to , what network the cable belongs to ( that’s  if they know ) and take it from there , but ultimately you have no right to ask for it to be rerouted, they may consider it , or may provide a device to deter birds , but they are not obliged to do anything.
