Question: Is it possible to re-enable a disconnected cable telephone line in the UK

Can you explain what the problem is? I only have experience of Virgin Media (or rather the company that it was before rebranding). I had an obvious BT socket, and a separate socket labelled with some other company.

I think that it should be possible from your postcode to determine which company has put cable down your street, and they should be able to help. Is that not happening?

This might help

to answer your second question, no, these are not disposable, one-use-only things. It just sounds like someone's messed up.

Thanks. I don't actually want cable necessarily :-)

But I'm sure at least one person has messaged up!

I've just realised that the property is a flat. Do the neighbours have the same cable/socket?

Hmm - good question! Have not yet met any neighbours ...
