Re: wiring


[re: blueboy] [link to this post]
 
This sort of job is the simplest in the world to replace the cable. It's about as difficult as wiring a plug without the risk. so why don't you DIY? If you really don't feel like doing that, I'm sure looking in the local paper or their website you can find someone who fit telephone extensions to do it. Of course when you see a BT engineer why not ask the question. For a £10 they'd probably do it as a "private". Most fit extensions on the side anyway. It's internal wiring and not BT's responsibility, so absolutely zero chance they will will do it without charging a ridiculous fee.

Why don't you open each box and either describe what you find inside or take a picture. Most of the materials you need for telephone wiring can be found on ebay.

I dont think so ! As after you have drove there spend 1/2hr + doing the job for a mere £10 . And if they find out you are down the road ! All for £10 , better to just do some OT.

Is this the only contribution you've got to make? Pointless. Whether it's £10, £20, £30 or £40 is irrelevant, as it will be far cheaper than BT. Anyway if he's working in the area, how much do you think he would charge for 10 minutes work, whilst logged in on another job?

Perhaps an Openreach engineer has seen what happens to staff moonlighting. Particularly in their working hours.

The indispensable man or woman passes from the scene, and what happens next is more or less the same thing as was happening before.
