Blocked account?

Hi,

I recently switched provider from Plusnet to YouFibre as they offered me a better deal and said they’d pay the early termination charges.

I received an email from Plusnet yesterday saying they’d opened a question on my account re sending the router back, so I tried to log in to see if I had my final bill to send do my new provider so I can be reimbursed.

It appears that PlusNet have locked me out from logging into my account, even though it exists. My phone remembers my username and password, I have used this multiple times to log in over the years of being a customer so I know it’s not me doing something wrong. I have since reset the password twice and I still can’t log in. My only thoughts is they’ve locked me out of my account because I am leaving? Why would they do this when I still need to access my final invoices? Is this standard?

You should still be able to login to your account BUT you might not be able to login with your email address. Have you tried using your accountname ?

Certainly used to be able to login with the CONTACT email address.

I can though see a potential catch 22 situation - if the contact email address was @account.plus.com when the account closes, that will not exist ... and thereby could have been removed as a login credential.
