Broken NTL green box.
 
Spoke to my father today, there is an NTL green box outside his house on the street, well the local kids have pulled the whole covering off it and it is now exposed with wires sticking out. He has reported it to NTL via phone three times in the past with nothing being done about it and taped the cover on himself but now he has enough of spending money on rolls of tape, so I'm posting it here so that someone from NTL might be able to sort it out.

Box is on Goronwy Road, Townhill, Swansea.

Cheers.

SJ.

Hi,

Thanks for telling us - I'll get it passed on to the right people. Is there a reference number on what remains of the box? It'll probably look something like "WBC5065".

Cheers.

There's a box in a similar state here-ish:

Vandalised box

Between the junction of Runswick (not Brunswick) Street and Crosby Road and the junction of Crosby Street and Crosby Road. At the end of the row of terraces that is Runswick Street or Avenue. Can't remember which - all the houses and streets look pretty much the same around here :)

[edit] My signature says it but it's Leeds. LS11 - Holbeck :)

Have you phoned this in to your local faults office on 0800 052 2000? They're better placed to deal with this than I am - and the Leeds one is different to the Swansea one.

No - I just saw the thread and thought I'd mention it. The person(s) affected by the damage will no doubt be on the phone so there's no need for me to get involved - like said, just thought I'd mention it purely because the opportunity presented itself.
