I suspect Openreach don't plan to remove it.

@Pensioner1 As a service it will already be removed when your fibre went live.

Openreach don't remove any old cables.

Not talking about cables just the line from the telegraph pole

Line=cable. Same thing.

The current minimal scrap copper value of an individual telephone drop cable makes it uneconomical for Openreach to routinely remove them.
