Long story short,
I ordered broadband with a £1.50 a month (for 12 months) offer (not £2.50) with an install date for a new phone line on the 17th of September. A day I'm off work.
I phoned support with a question regarding Fibre and the next thing I know as soon as I get off the phone is that my ADSL order has been cancelled.
I phoned support asking WHY it had been cancelled and was told it was a mistake and that it would be reordered. I was told it would still be the 17th for the install.
I received a text/email telling me the install would be the 11th.
I'm charged £11.49 for a broadband service that I don't have yet and I'm not expecting to have until late September. (£9.99 + £1.50 for card payment because the Broadband offer and my DD details were removed on the accidental cancellation)
I messaged support asking to sort out the offer of (£1.50) and also asking about the payment of £11.49 that has been made.
I get a message from support saying sorry and that they'll apply the £2.50 a month offer, not the £1.50 a month offer I ordered and mentioned about a million times in my ticket. They also didn't mention the payment of £11.49 that I've already made.
I'm slightly concerned that things like the router for the broadband are not on their way because of the random cancellation too.
I'm utterly unimpressed by the way things have been handled really. If someone here could sort out applying the correct discount to my account and possible sorting out a refund for the month of broadband I've charged for, that would be appreciated.

The modem/router is usually only sent out a few days before the install date but it should arrive in time.
You are certain that's a definite date and not a provisional one for the 11th? Worth double checking as there's been a few people who've got confused recently.
CRT can do that as well for you if you don't have any luck on that before Monday, but you could try ringing the 0800 customer order line, rather than the Support one to check.

The only reason I'm concerned about the router order is that I'm sure it's usually in the list on the order tracker, and it isn't since the random cancellation.

If you could just confirm that I'm now on the £1.50 a month scheme for my adsl that would be good. I know I've been refunded £10 from the month that I've already paid but not 100% sure it'll be the £1.50 for the broadband next payment. If you could also check just to make sure that the router is ordered that'd be great.
Thanks.

I have now updated the discounts for you as these had been set at the £2.49 for 12 months instead of the £1.49 for 12 months. This will be picked up for you on your next bill.

Usually the routers are sent out via automation a few days before the broadband order is due to complete. However, to make sure its there, I've put it in the post for you today.

BT are due today to install the phone line for my broadband and the connection for the broadband is due to go live tomorrow.
I still haven't received my router through the post that was sent out on the 2nd. I'm suspecting that it's probably gone to the wrong address with it being a plot number (the BT engineer also ended up on the wrong street completely until he phoned so it's a good job I took the day off work.)
Any chance you could check this for me? I suspect it's more of a royal mail thing however. I do have an adsl router that I've borrowed for now so it's not a huge worry.
How likely is it that the broadband will be active today after the phone line is installed.

As for the router, I personally sent this out 8 days ago....strange.
All I can do is send you out another one Would you mind sending me PM to make sure we are sending it to the right place.

Luckily I do have a spare router that I can use tomorrow for when the BT Engineer arrives but hopefully this can be sorted soon. Any chance of changing my address in the account page so this doesn't happen again?
