The answer is no-one without insider knowledge can really give a likelihood only guesses.

This is so true, Mystic Meg could do a roaring trade on predicting when people will get full fibre.

It is very fishy that just after Zzoomm put fibre down my road that Openreach followed.

Follow the evidence and its not fishy at all.

I contacted OR and got an email 2 days later explaining that the pole didn't actually belong to them and to contact Brsk.

Time to take off the tin foil hat again.

They provide contact details for damage by phone, web, chat and twitter I believe . Try contacting an Altnet out of hours for a damaged cabinet or pole. That will be a mission impossible

Actually, from what I can make of it, Openreach announced they were building in Hereford on 29th July 2020.

Whereas Zzoomm announced they were building in Hereford on 13th October 2020.

So I venture that yet again you are making stuff up.

Openreach may have announced, but they only did one or two streets and then once Zzoomm came they seemed to have come alive.

openreach has too much of an advantage, need to be sold off away from Bt.

People who are interested in doing things rather than mouthing off would probably go onto the internet, search for "damaged telegraph pole" and be taken to this page (https://www.bt.com/help/landline/fix-a-problem/how-c...) which tells you that the poles are managed by Openreach and where there is an 0800 number to make an immediate report.

What part of the not everyone has broadband don't you get?

Lucky you, I have thankfully not had to contact them, but I have heard from people who have.
All poles in this city belong to Openreach, including the one a couple of roads away from me that looks like it is going to fall over anytime soon. I suppose the tress that are growing around it may hold it up.

don't trust Openreach, after all they belong to BT.

Yet again you are making things up. Just because you make something up and want what you have made up to be true, it does not make it true.

Clearly Openreach announced their build before Zzoomm in Hereford.

Now you are making yet more things up that you admit you have absolutely no experience of and nothing to support your allegation that people are unable to contact Openreach about leaning poles or other unsafe plant.

People who come to the forum seeking advice may not be aware of your habit of offering untruths and stuff that you have made up. This seriously diminishes the quality of the forum for visitors.

I wonder if she saw that coming ?
