BT don't place poles in people's gardens, so that doesn't sound right.
BT have the right to instal services into homes and neighbours pigeons or not, the neighbours can't block it. I had to recently lob a 30 year old mature tree in my front garden because it was starting to clash with a neighbour's BT wire which goes over my front garden. The BT wire won, my tree lost!
Phone BT up and tell them to stop messing about.
