Issue? 6Mar 10, 2010 9:38 pm Not sure if things have changed in the last couple of years, but when I worked for Telstra the customer expense was to provide trench to the boundry line (of your property/council verge) near the Telstra pit. Telstra should advise which pit to go to. Telstra then pay for the trench from the boundry to their pit. If you use one of the Telstra recommeded companies then they should do the whole job and just bill you for your property work. The other work (Boundry to pit) is included in your new connection fee. So you pay for your own trench (house to boundry) on top of the connection fee. Hoping that makes sense, and isn't out of date! Re: Footpath blocking the Telstra pit.

The connection fee came later (although ours was wavered initially because they completely botched up our connection first time round.). ![]() Took 4 weeks to get it fixed ![]() Henley - Wilshire Mk 3 ...
