Real Estate sign chops off Internet

Sandra from Normandale

Wednesday afternoon my internet died.
Ring Spark and get to Chorus.
24 hours later still no internet, rang Spark yet again.
Another almost 24 hours and DOWNER rings me to say the cause is a newly erected real estate sign has chopped off internet connections to 7 Spark [neighbour] customers and other internet servers.
Finally many hours of Downer and Chorus people at mine and other neighbours and a big hole dug on the side of the road, internet back after almost 48 hours.
Big bill for the real estate I am told.
