BT Openreach

Hi!

Is Openreach regulated by an Ombudsman that I contact? One of their Engineers has damaged my property, BT won't get involved and Openreach are not responding to any of my e-mails. I really would like to avoid instructing a solicitor but may be my only option?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Have you tried using the "chat" function on their website?

    Hi, thank for the reply. Yes, it doesn't work for Property damage. Just gives you an e-mail, which BT have already given me.

    What’s the damage?
    Stone door surround has been damaged whilst drilling through, the engineer didn't mention it and has tried to glue bits of stone back on with a clear silicone. Its a right mess.
