Would you accept this FTTP external cable finish?

Would you accept this standard of external cable finish?

Images

Note that the hole originally had an old disconnected ISDN cable in it, there was also an ISDN 2e panel inside which I mentioned to the engineer he could remove if it made things easier for him, which he said it would.

The external hole originally had clear sealant in it, which you can just see the remains of in the photo. The sealant was done by BT when they installed the ISDN cable.

The engineer fitted the Openreach Customer Service Panel, which he said something about it "tidying things up", however I don't know what it tidies, it is also very loose on one side.

To be honest I'm not sure if the bend radius is a bit tight on the internal cable to the ONT also?

Is it actually Openreach doing these jobs, or a contractor?

This was definitely Openreach (Openreach van, engineer etc.)

Should mention that it's working fine 300+ down 50+ up.

Reason I didn't mention it before the engineer left was that I was bit distracted trying to get it to work (ended up had to wait 1.5 hours because it's a regrade) and then I only gave it a sidelong glance out of the front door when the engineer left, saw the grey CSP box, and thought that would be covering everything up. i didn't see that the cable was curving up and around the box and into the hole, until I went out later in the day.

That's shockingly poor. If i were you i would be phoning the ISP and complaining about the state it's been left in. What happened to people taking pride in their work?

I clicked on the images in your post and immediately my security software popped up and said that the images were a malicious link and blocked them.
I do not know if they are or not but be careful folk!

Weird, I uploaded them to postimage.org, which was a recommendation on another thread.

They aren't.
