Hebden Bridge has lost a phone mast. No prior warning just everyone on some networks like O2 just losing signal overnight. But hey the Government wants us all to have digital ID so that’s alright even if we can no longer even access the internet! #rural #connectivity #DigtialID

I've been waiting for my FTTH activation for over a year. It seems like it's almost there, but the construction site hasn't been finished.
OpenFiber seems to have left some situations pending, proceeding extremely slowly and leaving some areas out.

On Tuesday afternoon, I reported the situation to the Municipality's mobile office, which comes to my neighborhood once a week.
They took charge of the report.

On Thursday, they confirmed they had urged OpenFiber to take action.

This morning, some technicians arrived and went to the external pole, where the cable arrives and the "box" was installed, everything was assigned, etc. There's still a part missing - but the municipality seems to have given the provider a two-month ultimatum.

My report unlocked the construction site and the completion of the works. Am I sure they will finish within the deadline? No. But I am sure that, now, something will move more quickly.

Fingers crossed!
