Images get held until they get "moderated" - basically a Moderator has to clear them.

 

The entry I was looking for shows KCI2 which means a survey is required. From what I can gather you may, or may not, be there when it happens, I'm guessing that in your case the survey will be a "duct" team who will try to rod through the congested duct. If they fail, they'll note what (and where) digging is required.

Re: Engineer Dates

@bmc Thanks, Brian.

I would prefer to be there when they do the survey as I'd like to understand what works are required.

I've heard of people's driveways and gardens being dug up, and I wouldn't want anything done without agreeing to it.

Would PN be informed by Openreach when they plan to do this?

If its '2-stage' then its usually the 1st visit for external work. If its 'KCI2 assure' , then its the date for an initial survey to decide what work is needed.  


Helped my next door neighbour to upgrade to Full Fibre on Monday. It is not listed as KCI2 but needs a duct to join that on the pavement as the copper is direct burial, so definitely a two part install. Booked date for later in the month, which I assumed was the survey date. Openreach turned up this morning unannounced to survey the route. I'm now assuming that the booked date is that for the dig team to turn up.

I'll update on the appointed day.


Openreach turned up today, again unannounced, and did the external dig work, installed the external fibre and CSP. Seeing all that is left to do is the intenal work and commissioning, one can only assume that in this case, the chosen date is the preferred one for this final task.
