Outside Cable Damage

Hi, gardener cut outside exposed cable by accident and we have no broadband. How do we get repaired?

Will we have to cover cost?

Phone in, go through the fault finding pantomime and report as total loss of internet.  If you have to pay it'll only be £25, of more concern may be that if the technician concludes the cable needs re-pulling you could be waiting months for that, although they'll hopefully do a temporary fix in the meanwhile.

As a short term measure, see if you can create a wifi hot spot for the house with your mobile phone.  It won't be fast, it won't be convenient, but it may tide you over for a few days.
