@skyhd so you’re saying an openreach engineer can turn up to one of your customers & cut the line without your knowledge? ‘cause it happened

via Twitter for Mac in reply to skyhd

@skyhd i meant how can a openreach engineer turn up without you knowing? also it was the engineer who physically cut the line.

via Twitter for Mac in reply to skyhd

@skyhd openreach cut the phone off for ~30 minutes then put it back on. rang sky and apparently you didn’t send him. how’s that possible?

via Twitter for Mac in reply to skyhd
