Two field managers came out to see me and i proved the land was mine but they said they would not be moving it and now i have to pay a lawyer to send a copy of the deeds to their legal team why should i have to pay when i have proved to there field manager the land is mine!!! so angry at VM....why do they not ask my neighbour for prove that the land is her's i will be sending them a letter from my lawyer and i will be claiming my loss from them as i have proved the land is mine as after all TITLE DEEDS PROVE THE LAND IS MINE so what is there problem Did i say in my opinion VM took the easy way to route the cable as my neighbours garden is full of trees i mean big leylandii trees, where as my garden is soil why does VM do this as only the owner of a property can give them permission.

you should have just chopped it out. then refused access when the repair team turned up. you will win in court anyway but it would have saved a lot of stress and effort on your part. |
Yep that's why I buried my own cable.
Team 1 came and installed the cable, but left it coiled up.
I dug my lawn and buried it 12" deep.
Team 2 came to finish the job,
But job had already been done.
They even admitted to me they would only bury it 6" but previous experiences suggest I would be lucky if it was buried 4".
