Electricity poles on my property. Best way to claim.

Hi, I hope someone can help me.
I have an electricity line on my property, I received a letter today regarding pcc, this company would act on my behalf but would take 20% + VAT!
What's the best way to claim the money? I would rather do it myself than give money to a company.
Or can I asked to have it removed?
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Do I yourself.
You get a wayleave payment for every pole and stay that supplies other people.
Contact your local supply company and give them a plan of the fields you own or rent.Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
I dont think you can get PPI on electricity polesI am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0

Sorry I haven't been on here for years, apologies if I have placed in the wrong section.
Do I just say I want to get a wayleave payment? And they will proceed it once I have given them our home map.
Can I get them removed?0 -
There's a long thread on the forum about this - you don't need PCC though they seem to tout for business directly - you just need to speak to the electricity company but read the below first for tips
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3693507Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
