You'll be surprised they only get paid £11 per install.
I don't know where the rest goes?  Probably to OpenReach

Oh for sure, I wasn't implying plusnet/eningeers are pocketing anything or the like. It was just an easy gig for the guy. He was the cheeriest engineer i'd ever met though, we talked about guitars the whole time!
