Changing Verzion Fios Fiber from pole-to-house to buried in already installed conduit.

Hi.

I'm doing some construction on my house and as part of this we have decided to get rid of all the cables in the backyard. For this purpose the builder dug a ditch and has installed a pipe/conduit for the Verizion Fios fiber in this ditch.

I spent the better part of an hour on last friday trying to talk to somebody at Verizon and get them to understand what I am trying to get done: I need a Verizon Technician to come out and run fiber from the pole through the conduit to the house.

Does anybody know how to explain this or where to call so that somebody at Verizion will actually understand, because I'm having no luck at all.

Kind regards

Thomas

I agree with everything you said. I did finally get a tech scheduled, through a Verizon chat session, and the job is done. It took the tech most of the day, but thats another story!

That's surprising you had so much trouble. A monkey and a pull string could run a wire through conduit. You'd think that they take those requests a lot. I'd imagine you call in and say I have a problem with the drop hanging from my house. Verizon fios told me to run conduit and they would send a tech to pull the wire through. Can I talk to someone that can schedule a technician visit?

What size conduit did you install?
