Contact for complaint

ideasgen — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 11:15:32 GMT

Does anyone have an e-mail address for Plusnet's CEO or similar senior manager.
I am besides myself with anger on how I have been treated by the customer service/faults team recently.
I used to recommend Plusnet for their customer service. Now it is appauling.
PS
I don't want to use just the feedback address as I have no faith this will get any adequate response

Hi ideasgen,
I've had a look through this and would like to give you a ring to discuss it if that's alright with you - if you could let me know a time when you'd be available that'd be great. Please feel free to drop me a PM, thanks - and sorry about the whole experience with the fault.

Re: Contact for complaint

ideasgen — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 12:30:56 GMT

Despite being promised a call I have not heard from you in three days. Think this probably says it all about customer service at Plusnet now.

Re: Contact for complaint

orbrey — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 13:02:12 GMT

I tried just before posting above but there was no answer. I was awaiting a note advising when you were available, but didn't receive any PMs and there's no notes on the ticket. If you let me know when you're available I'll be happy to call.

Matt.
You've had a PM and an e-mail from me via this thread so I'd suggest you check your systems!
You can probably get me between 10 and 11 today on the numbers you have. Else it will need to be after Christmas.

Ideasgen - did you ever get an address for the CEO? Or a resolution?
I've had 4 tickets running (yes I know 3 at a time is the max but Plusnet closed one of them before resolving!) for 6 weeks. Keep getting promises, contradictory offers etc but NO answers.
Would love to know how to escalate...

Our Code of Practice which details the complaint resolution procedure is here but of course it would be nice if it doesn't have to come to that!

I've replied to your most recent ticket and had a quick glance over the others. I suspect all we need to do is confirm:

What packages you want.
How much you're willing to pay.
Whether or not we can accommodate this and if not are any alternatives.
Exactly what you can expect to be billed moving forwards and when.
.

Does that about sum it up? I'm not convinced I'm the best person to deal with the situation given the fact that I've not been involved up until now and am not in for a few days after today. I can certainly give the relevant department a kick though if you like?

Matt's not back in until Monday but I'll leave him a message for when he gets back in.

Will drop some notes onto your ticket, however...
The connection seems pretty stable now judging by your recent RADIUS logs:

Session Started	Session Ended	Session Duration
07:26 30/Dec/2009	N/A		 One Day, 6:8:44 (on going)
15:41 29/Dec/2009	07:26 30/Dec/2009	 15:45:13
22:01 26/Dec/2009	N/A		 4 Days, 15:33:27 (on going)
10:50 18/Dec/2009	20:54 26/Dec/2009	 8 Days, 10:4:5

Your IP profile is now 2mbps again and our systems are also aligned to this.
I did notice after skimming through your fault ticket that you'd said:

Quote from: ideasgen
The modem is connected into a BT accelerator socket so doesn't have a micro filter. There are no other devices on this line.

A BT Accelerator filters out the bell wire, it does *not* isolate the voice/DSL frequencies on your line. See here where it specifically says you still need to use filters on each of the extension points on your line where a device is in use? Could it be that we've been looking at a local wiring issue all along
Edit: Sorry, realised that you've mentioned that nothing else is connected to the line so the last of my comments above might be void. Does this include extension sockets as well though as they'd need to be filtered too?

ideasgen — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 09:14:23 GMT

Ok - this is getting a bit complicated as it seems that we now have two threads running in my original.
On my issues.
Line is now profiled at 2mbps and I have seen a download improvement to around 1.3mbps. However this is still below the 2.3mbps I was getting and below the 3mbps that my neighbours get. In the recent past the line has profiled at 6.5mbps and I've still only had download of 800kbps so not sure that that is a good indicator of quality of my connection.
I want as a minimum to get back at least to the speeds I previously had and ensure they are maintained.
Whilst my line has been stable for the last couple of days I did have drop outs pre Christmas.
The BT accelerator was installed in May by BT and they said I should not put additional micro filters on. The 2.3/4 mbps was achieved without additional filters. Are you now saying that microfilters should be added?
Interesting that you've snipped part of the message that I previously sent to Matt - I think this proves my point that I had previously mailed him and I take great exception to the implication that he was waiting for me to make contact.
Finally whilst you may have a complaints procedure my confidence in this given recent experience has been severely damaged. i now do have the contact details for you CEO and will be raising this matter with him.

Your IP profile has since dropped to 1750kbps due to you being synchronised at 2016kbps on 04/01/2010 10:47:36. Our systems have not updated to reflect this though so I shall do that now.

I have no idea how a line with 60db downstream attenuation managed to synchronise that high and if it did I'd be flabbergasted if the connection remained stable. In fact looking at the characteristics of your line I'd not normally expect more than 1Mbps or so.

Quote from: ideasgen
I want as a minimum to get back at least to the speeds I previously had and ensure they are maintained.

I personally think it's a little unrealistic to expect much more than 1.5Mbps-2Mbps (after all your actual line estimate is reported to be a little over 1Mbps). IME there's not really much of a noticeable difference between a connection running at 1.5Mbps and one running at 2.5Mbps, but of course your findings might be different.

If there is *anything* else plugged into your phone line via *any* of your extension sockets then yes, filters absolutely must be used. Do you have anything else plugged into your extension sockets?

I'm not entirely sure what you're saying here however I can tell you that Matt is now back in the office. Given the fact that I'm now looking at your account there's probably little point in him doing the same. If you're still expecting to hear from him though then I don't mind asking him to pick up the PM you sent to him?

That I'm sorry to hear. I would urge people follow the relevant complaints processes though as our CEO isn't the most technically versed amongst us (which I'm sure he won't mind me saying!)
I can try resetting your training period again if you like, but the last time we did this it didn't seem to make a great deal of difference and your SNR has crept back up to 9db. The only other alternative I can see is for us to push for an engineer visit but I'm reluctant to do that as your line's operating within specification and I wouldn't want you to incur the wrath of the abortive call out fees!

Hi ideasgen,
I can see Bob's looking at your issues so I'll leave that to him. I've checked my PMs and email and haven't received anything from you I'm afraid. If you let me know which address was used I can check to make sure there's no issues there?
Regardless I'm sorry I didn't try and contact you further.

Re: Contact for complaint

ideasgen — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 15:46:17 GMT

OK - I will start again for you Bob.
I fully undersatnd that the issue is the quality of the line. My issue is that three months ago I had a service that was providing 2.4mbps download, and by end Oct it was down to 800mbps. I do not believe that I should have to suffer such a loss of service and to be told by your customer service dept that it will be addressed when BT install fibre optic connections is beyond belief. In your own words it is "unrealistic" for me to expect the service level that I enjoyed for years before October from the current line because of its degradation. I don't think that is an acceptable position and what's to guarantee that it will not degrade further?
If the issue is the line - then that is what needs addressing. I have offered what I believe to be a possible solution insofar as I have another line at home that my broadband could be switched to. The BT engineer in May said this was a quick job. On using the checker on BT's website it says that my alternate line should be capable of max of 3mbps (versus my current line at 1.0mbs). I don't understand why no one is evaluating this as an option
I can keep sending you guys information about the line's profile etc. and we can debate it to death. You can attempt to tie me up in jargon I don't care. All I want is the quality of service that I had earlier in the year (recognising that this is still not as good as I believe that it should be).
Finally - I have contacted your CEO, not for his technical skills but for him to be informed of the poor way that I believe that this issue as been dealt with. Ultimately it is his responsibility to manage the resources with the company. I will be very dissappointed if he doesn't intervene to ensure this matter is dealt with as a priority.
Sincerely,
Steve

Doubt it jelv, the IP profile was consistently around the 1000-2500 mark before the (very brief) jump to 6500. Might have coincided with a period of retraining but if I'm honest I've not looked into that much detail as it's not really pertinent to the problem.

Re: Contact for complaint

jelv — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 15:52:37 GMT

Ah - I hadn't appreciated from what he'd said that the 6500 was a brief abnormality!

It isn't 800kbps now is it? Here are the most recent line speed delta reports as received from BT Wholesale that show you should be getting between 1Mbps and 2.5Mbps.

Nothing I guess but such is the nature of the Wholesale product that we resell. From what I can see, your recent IP profiles aren't worlds apart from the (presumably) 2500 you were receiving before anyway, this is what I'm struggling to understand TBH?

Quote from: ideasgen
If the issue is the line - then that is what needs addressing. I have offered what I believe to be a possible solution insofar as I have another line at home that my broadband could be switched to. The BT engineer in May said this was a quick job.

Whilst it may be a quick job it isn't cheap. There's a £25 wholesale charge for us to cease your existing circuit, and a £40 activation fee to enable the new circuit. If you're willing to cover those costs then by all means we can transfer the service however I'm sure you can understand the commercial reasoning as to why we can't simply absorb these? There is an option to defer the costs over the duration of a year meaning you won't pay anything as long as you stay with us twelve months?

Quote from: ideasgen
On using the checker on BT's website it says that my alternate line should be capable of max of 3mbps (versus my current line at 1.0mbs). I don't understand why no one is evaluating this as an option

Whilst that sounds promising, the line checker isn't gospel so think about things carefully as you wouldn't want the expense of a re-provisioning if the second line is going to end up the same (or worse) than the first.

We can see the information about your line profile from here so that information you needn't provide us with. Are you able to answer the question I asked about your extension sockets though?

I understand that, and I can sympathise with your frustration, but we can't perform miracles and are somewhat bound by what Wholesale would consider to be a working circuit. From the evidence I've seen so far, they would consider everything to be working as it should. Like I've said, we could get an engineer out but Wholesale would be *very* reluctant, you'd need to be 100% sure that your internal wiring isn't at fault (thus the question about filters/extension sockets) and there is the potential for abortive callout fees to be levvied.

Re: Contact for complaint

ideasgen — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 15:56:35 GMT

Bob,
I've now been contacted by Brad so would ask that you pass these commenst to him as well.
I don't recognise the data that you've provided for speeds. I've consistently told you - and provided BT speed tester data to back up - that the download speed during Nov -Dec was c 800mbps to 1kbps.
I have seen the speed rise to 1.5mbps in the last few days only - and as Brad has confirmed there is no guarnantee this will remain.
So when you say you can't see the issue I presume this is because you are seeing the line profile data as opposed to the actual download speed achieved. They are clearly different and if you are determining the quality of service provision off the back of the data you are looking at then I can quite understand why you have problems seeing this issue.
I'm not going to discuss the cost of getting this service back to the level it was in September - as far as I'm concerned that's an issue for you and BT. If I can't trust BT's wholesale test service then wants the point of it being there.

I've now been contacted by Brad so would ask that you pass these commenst to him as well.

That I've done and I understand Brad will be keeping an eye on things too when he's in the office.

I don't recognise the data that you've provided for speeds. I've consistently told you - and provided BT speed tester data to back up - that the download speed during Nov -Dec was c 800mbps to 1kbps.
I have seen the speed rise to 1.5mbps in the last few days only - and as Brad has confirmed there is no guarnantee this will remain.
So when you say you can't see the issue I presume this is because you are seeing the line profile data as opposed to the actual download speed achieved. They are clearly different and if you are determining the quality of service provision off the back of the data you are looking at then I can quite understand why you have problems seeing this issue.

Yes, I am looking at the line profile. If this is being reported correctly by the BT Speedtest but the throughput on the same test is low then it normally means:

The profile at our side isn't configured properly.
You're using your connection when the test is being performed.
There's congestion across the VPs at your local exchange (although this would suggest otherwise).
You have a genuine line fault (a possibility, but as I've mentioned before the evidence doesn't suggest this to be the case).

Here's the line profile history from our side (not BT's):

2010-01-04 13:35:35	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	1750
2010-01-02 18:31:37	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2500

2009-11-24 21:55:56	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	1500
2009-11-21 23:34:53	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2500
2009-11-16 19:22:21	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	1750
2009-11-03 00:14:26	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2500
2009-10-30 06:55:25	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	1750
2009-10-24 20:36:51	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2000
2009-10-10 09:26:06	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	1500
2009-10-08 10:53:02	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2500
2009-10-03 21:22:15	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2000
2009-09-28 11:19:37	BT IPStream Max Home Self-Install	8000	50:1	2500

So between the 2nd and 18th of December the Plusnet line profile was 1000kbps, that would have given you a download speed of around 800kbps.

I'm not going to discuss the cost of getting this service back to the level it was in September - as far as I'm concerned that's an issue for you and BT. If I can't trust BT's wholesale test service then wants the point of it being there.

Your throughout is still within specification though, and it's worht considering that we may just be looking at exchange contention.

That's not strictly true. The line tests we've run don't identify any problems with the line. That's not to say there isn't a line fault of course, it's just the diagnostic tools we have access to don't suggest that to be the case.
Anyway, the fault is with BT now so after a bit of to-ing and fro-ing we should be able to get an OpenReach engineer out.
Sorry for repeating the question again but I'm still not sure on the answer to this:
[quote author="Bob Pullen"]Do you have anything else plugged into your extension sockets?

Bob - nothing else is plugged into the accelerator circuit.
Brad agreed with me that this has to be a line fault issue. Not a line degradation given recent performance
When I run the BT Speedtest I make sure nothing else is downloading - so that is not the answer.
