I intend to ask them for a copy of the wayleave agreement. If it exists and I am bound by it then I have to abide by it. If they cannot produce it I believe am perfectly entitled to refuse them entry.You didn't sign it, it's not registered against the property which you seem to have bought clear of any encumbrances, so why not approach whoever you think owns the wires and say you want them removed, at their expense of course?
5.2 In order to perform our obligations under this Agreement and in consideration of the Services provided to you, you hereby grant us such licence in respect of your land, buildings and premises (‘your land’) as is necessary for us (including our employees and authorised representatives) to provide the Services to you and our other customers, including but not limited to, from time to time, upon giving you reasonable notice (save in any emergency) to enter those parts of your land to install, maintain, adjust, repair, replace, renew, upgrade, inspect or remove, and to keep installed and to operate at or on your land, Equipment and/or telecommunications apparatus. You will at your own expense provide or procure whatever further rights over your land we require from any landlord and/or successor in title and/or any other person with an interest in your land whose consent is legally required to enable us to exercise the rights over land granted pursuant to this paragraph and you will enter into any necessary additional documentation to give effect to the grant of such rights. Each party shall at all times comply with all reasonable instructions of the other party or any third party in relation to the exercise of any rights over your land obtained in accordance with this paragraph.
5.3 Your failure to comply with paragraph 5.2 may result in withdrawal of the Services and termination of this Agreement, and if this happens we will be entitled to continue to enter upon your land to enable us to provide the Services to neighbouring customers and/or remove all or part of our Equipment.
It kind of does. What solution are you expecting the company to propose that will not impact your neighbours? Prepare for some downtime for your neighbours in terms of TV and possibly Broadband for people who may be working from home if you require the cabling to be removed.I am of course mindful of my neighbours but that really has nothing to do with it.
Who said I didn't? The issue that has prompted this is that they wish to carry out upgrade works now and I am not happy to allow that to happen.Why are you having an issue with this now after 17 years living in the house? Why didn't you follow up immediately after purchasing the house?
Thankfully I have never been a customer and never signed up to these terms.
My point with that post is that rather than using wayleaves they seem to be using their Terms of Service to get customers to sign away their property rights.
