Satellite Dish Removal

Hi

I’m just wondering who would be responsible for the removal of 4 satellite dishes that have been installed next to my balcony.

I own the 1st floor flat and I did query that satellite dishes but the freeholder was quite difficult - not a problem because it was never going to stop me buying the property.

There are 4 dishes beside my balcony and 1 dish outside the 2nd floor flat.

I’ve been here for over a year so it’s likely any subscriptions any previous owners/tenants had would have expired so just wondering who now owns the dishes and whether I can remove them.

Thanks in advance

    Follow the cables and find out? Have you asked all the neighbours? If they're not currently in use then I can't see any third parties having retained an interest in them. The freeholder might care about how you remove them e.g. ensuring any fixing holes are made good.
