Neighbour's Cable Runs Through My Property - Urgent Action Needed
Hi Virgin Media, I am a Virgin media customer and so is my neighbour. We are currently building a driveway at our property and have discovered that our neighbour's cable runs across our land. This was clearly not installed correctly and is now causing a significant obstruction. The cable is extremely taut and penetrates our brick wall, which we plan to remove. We are concerned about this for several reasons: Safety Hazard: The exposed and taut cable poses a tripping hazard and could be damaged during our construction work. Obstruction Delaying Building Work: The cable's current position is obstructing our driveway construction and preventing us from completing the project as scheduled. Responsibility: We do not want to be held responsible for any future issues with our neighbour's service due to the cable's current location. As we were unaware that the cable was under the soil, running through our land - this was accidentally cut, disrupting our neighbours service. As they are elderly and have no other means of communication, I have had to resolve this on their behalf. A Virgin Media engineer visited today Friday 15 November, 2024 - and resolved the connection issue, bringing them back in service. However, the engineer stated they did not have the "facilities" to install a new cable and displayed an unhelpful attitude, but nevertheless repaired the issue. To ensure the safety and proper functioning of the service, we request that Virgin Media re-route the cable entirely onto my neighbour's property as soon as possible. We are aiming to complete our driveway in the next few weeks and need this resolved! I have attached annotated images to illustrate the problem. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Thanks Please note the below thread linked, is a similar case to my own, so I expect a speedy resolution!: https://community.virginmedia.com/t5/Networking-and-WiFi/I-m-not-a-customer-but-I-have-neighbors-exposed-and-unprotected/td-p/5366714/
