Thanks for all the reply's, The Twin cable comes direct from the Mast DP each side of cable has a single core with small round flat end and small wire coming from that into master socket

Sorry did not know you kept track of my posts will try and keep on top of them

Don't be so rude.

It is rather noticeable when someone starts a thread then ignores it for four days. Also rude and insulting to the many who reply.

I guess I'll just have to wait until the 27th to find out if they replace it or not. Thanks for the info people.. I'll tell him or her it is **** steel core, I know and you know it should be replaced.

When I moved to this property 11 years ago that is the wire that fed my phone. I was not on fibre then but it performed o.k.
It was replaced due to a fault mid span but I think it was the original wire when a phone was installed many many years ago.

Well when we moved in here about 30+ years ago we also had the very thick 2 core grey phone cable.

It was only when we ordered Home Choice (media streaming service) many years ago that used ADSL which failed to work due to speed issues, so they had to replace the whole line from the chamber to our home and then it worked fine.

Indeed - you being the hob in this instance.

The OP started a new thread elsewhere in this "holiday time".
