It also said get an engineer to do a full line inspection including line card and exchange equipment.
All in the 50 minutes allocated standard task time. Ha !
Sounds like the AI was covering every base so couldn't be wrong.


Think it was scraped from the A&A website. There must be only one agent at TTB on a weekend and she keeps closing cases as soon as they are opened and it's annoying me as well as the fault changing.

Well have fired off two emails. One to Mr Selly and another to the TT Group complaints as complaints to TTB just get closed without action. Also a billing query. My billing has been somewhat erratic over the last couple of months.

So a Quinn contractor showed up today and has done line checks. Keeps getting different faults on the line check with one a diss. one a loop and one a pass. Broadband keeps dropping and is now banded at 44mbps. He said he is going to send it back to OR and he cant pull new cable but isn't sure where the fault is.

They are quality aren’t they ?

The engineering equivalent of lip service. Beloved by the bean counters, and faceless middle management.

I seriously hope you get a proper, multi skilled, experienced Openreach bod next time Tim. (There is still a chance that it needs a maintenance dig)

Couldn't they temporarily run a a cable overground if they believe the underground issue is within the OP's boundary so he at least has some working service.
