Re: full fibre landline just installed
@Pensioner1 As a service it will already be removed when your fibre went live.
Openreach don't remove any old cables.

Re: full fibre landline just installed
The current minimal scrap copper value of an individual telephone drop cable makes it uneconomical for Openreach to routinely remove them.
