Re: Neighbours installation fubars my cable!

Ongoing update.

Yet another team came out to my house and were surprised to find that a new cable had been pulled as they were about to start digging a new trench to my house when I saw them outside.
I explained the situation and they said they'd make the connection permanent as promised the week before..
They then proceeded to did a small trench from the the manhole under my wall and then drill a hole through my patio stuck a roll of coax through the hole and scarpered - I've now got a dirty great roll of cable sticking out of my front patio connected to nothing at either end and presummably someone was supposed to come and connect it but 3 weeks later its still there - shambles is not the word ...

Since when does making a connection permanent involve digging up a perfectly good peice of tarmac - surely all they needed to do was properly seal the newly drawn coax to the exisiting (perfectly satisfactory cable ?)
