I'd also be very interested in the outcome.

It took us 6 to 12 months to get Telewest to extend their network to our block of flats and that was only about 100 feet plus.

Had to go through their planning department who then had to get all the permissions etc, as they had to dig up an access road and also dig up quite a lot of the pavement.

If you're being quoted £200 plus to extend access then i'd grab it with both hands.

We were advised that it would cost more than a few thousand to extend access to us, but fortunatly Telewest picked up the tab and didn't cost us anything at the end of the day.
