Yup should be interesting to see how long my Contract at work will last due to evil cut backs

It's hard to make most things rat proof. But most good seals/doors and brick walls would do. Things I guess BT cannot afford, or don't think are worth investing in, like the infrastructure in general.
I use to have a signature, then it all changed to chip and pin.

Are you sure they're rats, not hamsters?  Filligree, even?  :)x

I was talking to a BT engineer this morning. They are, apparently, getting an increase in rat damage to cables at distribution points which, in Milton Keynes, are often put in bin cupboards...

They put rats in bins?

Rik

It saves them having to find their own way in. ;D

I suppose BT are thinking forward... putting the copper in the bin ahead of time. :I'll get my coat smiley:

For those in Muswell Hill lucky enough to not have their cabinet planning application rejected, it's quite a speed boost:

QuoteThat first customer was an existing TalkTalk subscriber and it took us about three hours to convert their current copper-based ADSL connection to fibre-based VDSL one. Obviously, it's only been live for a few days but the lucky first customer has gone from an average download speed of 5.3Mbps to 32Mbps! Encouraged by this result, we went on to connect two more customers with another following later today.
