How to request repair/replacement brown external box please ?

Clarington
Tuning in

Hello there, 

I hope this is the right board for this query, apologies if not. Would anyone be able to point me in the direction of how to request a repair to the external brown cable box please ? The cover has snapped off completely and a tangled of loose wires and cable are at the mercy of the weather. I've attempted to fix it and failed. 

Is there a way to request a repair online please ?

Many thanks

Hi Zak, 

Hoping you can help- I have the same issue. Brown box has been damaged and lid is now gone in storm- wires exposed.

Further to this the wires to the street are not actually underground like they should be; when we moved in 1 year ago it was like this. 

Look forward to hearing from you

Hi Sophie, 

 

Thanks or posting and welcome to our community 🙂

 

Sorry to hear the box has been victim to the storm, so I can arrange a technician to fix this and sort the cabling I'll need a few details from you.

 

I've popped you over a private message (purple envelope, top right hand corner)

 Thanks for getting back to me via private message Sophiesho 🙂

 

I've arranged an engineer to come and fix the cover and bury the cabling, you should be able to view the time and date of these appointments via your online account here

Hi,

Hoping you can help me as well with the same issue. I moved into a new place and used a self install kit to set up the connection, however the cover of the brown box has been missing since the beggining and many wires are exposed.

Any help in getting this fixed would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

Good Morning @nat04, and a very warm welcome to you!

I'd be happy to assist you with this request, please check out the purple envelope in the top right hand corner for my private message

Kindest regards,
