I had a Chorus consult back in Sept 2015 and the tech said they'd need consent from Wellington Energy to string a fibre on their pole across the road.
That was five months ago and still waiting.
Consent is obviously possible since the neighbours had it installed today using the exact same poles! And several other people in our street have overhead installs from other poles.
When I rang Chorus (which I think VF should have done) I just got a "meh" response.
Why can't Chorus pre-consent whole streets to speed up the rollout?
