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!

Mine was pretty good. Strangely I had FTTC for about 2 weeks and they came back to upgrade to FTTP.

I did a lot of the prep work myself to make sure it was as quick and easy for them as possible. I dug trenches, pulled drawstring through the walls etc.

The weird part was that they got 90% through the FTTP install and the job got cancelled because I already had NBN. I had to convince them it was worth finishing.
