Reporting a fault to BT is quite simple but they spend a lot of time making it clear that if the fault is proved to be on your own equipment, at any point after their line enters your house you will be charged £130, fair enough. So the engineer rocks up, finds the fault to be with their line, but points out that the 4 mile stretch from the junction box to the group of houses where I live is very very old and appears to have been patched up many times in the past. He can't mend my line as there are no more "spares" on the line, so there is nothing he can do. Fair enough, what now? He will report the need for a new line to his manager. How long will that take? They will have to cost it out and see if it is worth doing!!! You what!! Has anyone else been in this situation, and how did it end?
