ᐅ Telecom Connection – Line Already Installed, Still Have to Pay $600?

I applied for my internet and phone connection with the telecom provider. In the meantime, the local energy supplier (a small regional company) has already installed the phone cable to the house.
The cable now only needs to be connected to the telecom provider’s network and the "APL box" inside the building needs to be connected. No more earthworks are required. (I wanted to complete all excavation work in one go, which was successful).
I have now read that in this case the telecom provider is not allowed to charge for the connection – can anyone provide more detailed information on this?

I threatened to switch to cable if the fee remains as it is...That will surprise them.
Now seriously: You can do that. But first, get a quote from the cable provider. If they are even able and willing to install cable for you, you will probably get a quote that takes your breath away (and not because it’s cheap).
So: Contact the builder’s hotline, secure the 400,- credit, and pay the rest.
The cable for the phone line is probably already installed. The cable network operator still has to lay their cable. That will be really expensive!
