PD said they can do the phone trenching and house connection for $250.
Does this sound right?
What heappens next? Do we get Telstra to connect the phone once we moved in?

Seriously? Hm. I'm now a bit peeved... We just got the letter saying our frame's almost done, time to ring up and arrange a pre-wire. We've been told in one letter we need Telstra and in another that PD can 'help us organise' a subcontractor via recommendation, but now I've got no clue exactly what a pre-wire entails! If you wanted PD to do the phone trenching and connection, it had to be done in your contract - They are probably just saying in these letters a) that it needs to be done now and b) that they can point you in the right direction. After you have oreganised the trench (your self or a sub contractor) you need a sub contractor who is licenced to run the cable from the house to the pit in the street. Once that cabling has been done then you need to call Telstra and organise connection to the exchange 'A bottle of wine contains more philosophy than all the books in the world.'
