My neighbours and I have both recently applied for recently installed fibre in our street. My neighbours power and copper runs from a street pole on my boundary over my property to their house.
My copper runs from the street pole underground through my garden to my house. My drive joins the neighbours to get out onto the street at the opposite end of the street frontage ie away from the street pole.
when the neighbour applied for fibre they got chorus preinstall meeting straight away . I applied and its been held up requiring the neighbours consent even though their fibre will run over my property and my new connection wont. The chorus records incorrectly think the connection route runs over So my application is currently held up
i emailed chorus with a marked plan from council gis viewer only to be told they wont deal directly with me so i had to send the same to Orcon who just fobbed it off saying chorus will sort out.
Rather than coming out to site to check it seems my application is in limbo while i wait on the neighbours to give permission for an install that wont even touch their property yet they dont need permission over to run over my property They are yet to hear anything from Chorus
any suggestions on how to speed this up. It seems v bureaucratic. I also read the free install runs out this year i dont want to get stung with charges because of this consent delay
