Well not strictly the opposition, and definitely not a cable co, but it's got Cable in the company name.......... ;) ;)

Surely if the cable comes via poles, there is no need for conduit... [-X
Sorry, truly sorry but couldn't resist... :off topic:
I think I'll get my coat...

even better today :-. they left a phone message saying they couldnt complete for 2 days as there was a fault further down the line, they leave a phone number if there is any queries, i try it no answer so i go out to my daughters last assembly at 2 this afternoon and return at 3:45 to find an engineer just finishing fitting the cable through the conduit and testing the line :shock: it all works he says you just need to plug in a phone and off he goes :?
I ring the number from the earlier message(now i get through) and say to the woman "could you explain how your engineer has fitted a phone line to my house without me ordering it?"
she says" can i have your order number please"
"No" i reply "i,ve not ordered anything therefore no order number"
we then enter a long discussion about how they have managed to dig a trench across my garden and install a phone line without an order confirming i want same phone line
"so what if i now say i dont wish to proceed as your too expensive then" i ask" am i to assume you will come and restore my lawn to its former trenchless state"
she doesnt really come up with an answer for this
so it turns out after all this because we had 1 engineer come to look at the job *with a view to pricing it up* they assume we,re going ahead and having it anyway :-.
i cant decide whether they are efficient or incompetent
