Hi guys just moved into a new house and there is no ONT box. I have sky tv now but no internet. I was told open reach would get in contact but they haven't. My switch on day was the 15th April and still no ONT box from open reach. Sky were informed of this but nothing has happened. So frustrating! Any help greatly appreciated.

Re: No ONT box at new house
Our records show the following FTTP network service information for these premises:-Single Dwelling Unit Residential OH Dpole Hoist required.
ONT exists with active service. A spare port may be available or a single port ONT may be swappable to a multiport ONT. A new ONT may be ordered.
The exchange is not in a current fibre priority programme
As a WLR withdrawal exchange, product restrictions apply
SOADSL is not restricted at the exchange
For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.
For all SOADSL services,the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.
Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.
In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.
If you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service
ADSL, ADSL2+ and SOADSL availability: If shown at FTTP or SOGEA premises,ADSL, ADSL2+ and SOADSL are not available to order due to WLR Withdrawal stop sell rules. CPs should order FTTP or SOGEA. Copper products are only available by exception.

"ONT exists with active service. A spare port may be available or a single port ONT may be swappable to a multiport ONT."
Openreach are under the impression that an ont exists maybe previous owners took it with them .
Have a look for something like this
If its not there you would need to call sky or we can escalate it

Re: No ONT box at new house
There is nothing at the house at all. It looks like it was taken when the house was sold. The sky engineer agreed. No ONT box at the property. I called Sky when I moved in to advise them of this and it's on my notes, but nothing has been ordered. Open reach have said that I need to contact Sky and ask them to order and arrange for fitting but nothing has been done.

"Single Dwelling Unit Residential OH Dpole Hoist required.
ONT exists with active service. A spare port may be available or a single port ONT may be swappable to a multiport ONT. A new ONT may be ordered. "
So Openreach think there's a fibre circuit arriving from a pole (OH is 'overhead')
It would be worth you looking for this optical cable (thin black sheath with yellow stripe) arriving at eaves height, running down a wall to an external grey plastic box, and then entering through a hole to terminate at a green plastic jack plug. Unfortunately Dpole Hoist required indicates that there will probably be a significant delay if a new circuit is required.
