Fibre in listed building?

Currently on "Unlimited Fibre inc. Line rental"

 

PN keep urging me to upgrade to full fibre, which is cheaper of course.

 

I'm a renter in a GII listed building, so drilling holes and mounting boxes not only requires my uncooperative landlord to agree but probably requires listed building consent from the local auth which the landlord would have to negotiate.

 

How does PN handle this sort of thing? There's no guidance whatsoever in the "help".

Re: Fibre in listed building?

Is there any possibility of using an existing copper cable entry point ? and then fitting an internal CSP ?

Can you post a screen image from the following (after hiding your details).

Of particular interest is what is said to the right of WBC FTTP (One Stage or KCI2) and the narrative below the results window.

It might be worth a conversation with the landlord on is there ducting OR can use to run in FTTP to the building, I can understand if there are say 10 units, the landlord is not going to want 10 lots of new fibre runs and 10 lots of damage to the grounds and will not what any let alone multiple fibres on the exterior of the buildings.

It happens for time to time.

 

However, the Address version does appear to be working - at least for my address.

Another matter for consideration is you phone line / service. Do you want to keep it?

 

PN are actively moving services to EE for those who want to keep a combined internet / phone service or off your current service if either you're happy to lose the phone or prefer to use a VOIP provider.
