I live in a back to back terrace house located as shown below, the house marked ME is my house, marked Y are the houses which can have NTL and N where they cant, there is a path which runs around one side of the houses to our property, the length of which must be at least 20 metres, the only access to the property is via this path, the points marked A and B are points between which I can route the ducting myself and the point marked C is where I am allowed access to for telecommunications purposes.
I have asked NTL to install it but they refuse, citing access issues. The real reason is probably money, what I want to know is, what is the maximum length of ground NTL is willing to dig to give me cable and how far would I need to get the ducting myself? Also, who would I need to speak to in NTL to get this rolling.
