My original BT line, so original it would have been fitted by the GPO, sags. I reported it to TalkTalk years ago who said "that is for Openreach to sort". Openreach said "that is for TalkTalk to sort"


So I went up a ladder and half sorted the problem. I returned to BT and had a separate fibre optic line installed. I now see the original line is sagging on the new fibre optic line. Worried that the next storm will do damage.


Pre Covid-19 I'd talk direct to BT but the last call had a recorded message and told me to go on line. On line did not give me the opportunity to explain, tested my new line and had a caveat that I may be charged.


Before I report it to Openreach anybody had similar experience? Ideally just take away the old line. I can't imagine a time when we or future occupants would resort to copper rather than fibre

    • But there's an obvious policy tension here between the police model and the civil model. The police model theoretically acts as a deterrent but, as on Lordship Lane (and many other A-roads where most collisions happen) there is limited enforcement coverage. With the civil model there is the potential for wider enforcement coverage but the penalties are weaker (some may think of speeding as a 'cost of doing business') and funding it is expensive. There's a real risk of patchwork enforcement within a local authority and between local authorities. As I understand it, this is why the Assembly has been cautious in taking it further.

    • Police are responsible for speed cameras, often these only go up after a serious incident or two. If speeding was decriminalised and went to local authorities to enforce then our roads would be safer as there would be far less speeding.   https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/enforcement-20mph-zones-local-roads
    • Never understood why there are not more speed cameras on Lordship Lane and the surrounding area - not sure what happened here exactly, but given the damage to the front of the vehicle as a result of the impact of the traffic light, it seems very unlikely that this person was driving slowly.
