    Hi all, we have FTTH installed and I'm just wondering who to contact with respect to a low hanging fibre optic cable running across a public road? The line is sagging and yesterday a tractor towing an excavator caught the top of it, luckily it didn't pull the whole lot down. It's only a matter of time before something taller comes along and knocks everything out. There doesn't seem to be any contact point for open EIR. I've notified my ISP not sure that is correct either.

    I think this is the number to contact Open Eir to report a dangerous cable 1850245424
