How was your NBN fttp upgrade experience ? - eviltoast

My god I had such an awful experience. Shitty people did shitty work. They ran conduit under my lawn and kept saying that “we don’t have to put conduit in but the work I do is quality work”. Gaps between the conduit and ceiling. He can’t even clamp the conduit straight. Shoddy work overall. Paves removed and didn’t put it back properly. Sand all over the area. I am pissed. Please share your experience.

Also to add he started working at 8am and didn’t even finish it until 7pm then started asking for signature and said he will get the rest of the work done tomorrow. Wtf!

    Told them where the water pipes were. They used some sort of pipe finder to confirm.

    Then, of course, they put the conduit drill straight through the water pipe under the concreted driveway. Turned off all the water and disappeared to Bunnings -allegedly- for hours. Cut up the driveway to get to the pipe to fix it. It still looks like shit. And is sinking…,

    Next week, the guy to do the internal cabling shows up. Everything is too hard for him to do properly. So he drills a hole in the eaves, runs the cable through the roof, then a hole in the ceiling and drops the cable down the wall. No covering inside or out, just a black cable running up and down walls. And here was I stupidly thinking it would just be a nice faceplate on the wall inside.

    I’ve never seen such a shitshow.
