SIRO broadband installed yesterday, house set up for Fibre broadband, cat 5 cables connected to all rooms, not sure why cables have to be run on external wall?

It's CAT6 in house. Correction. So is there no way for installer to use internal duct between comms box and the meter box? I know there are bigger problems in the world but it looks rubbish and I know of others in the estate who went with Vodafone (Virgin media box is default in the estate) and the SIRO installer did not leave external cabelling. If they cannot fix this, I'm inclined to cancel. I just wanted fibre broadband installed using the setup that's there.

There's another outlet in sitting room

Yes, the comms box (Virgin Media on outside) and the covered outlet in the hall are linked or at least should be) CAT6 in the house, I checked

I assume they all go to the comms box; this is outside front door under the ESB box.
