Phone line repair for business broadband repair will cost £172.80 I have to agree this charge.
Note if they can't find fault, or I miss the appointment, the charge still applies.
BT Master socket front plate, also chargeable, PN supplied router @ 8 months old also chargeable.
Can you afford to be here ?

Hi @harrow,
Phone line repair for business broadband repair will cost £172.80 I have to agree this charge.
Note if they can't find fault, or I miss the appointment, the charge still applies.
There may be some crossed wired here.
The statement reads;
"If the engineer finds the fault to be with one of the checks we have asked you to do, you miss the appointment, or you cancel the appointment within 2 working days of the engineer visit time, we will add a one off fee of ?144 (plus VAT) to your bill."
The word "if" implies that this will not be charged should none of the above rings true.
Hope this helps,

You better play back the phone calls then.
If anything I have checked, if the front plate of the master socket, (there are no others), or your router is proved faulty, if there is any possible electrical interference in the area of the property, if I miss the appointment or no fault is found.
Then you have asked me to agree to pay £172.80
I already pay the monthly direct debit and you want more money to repair the service which you can see is faulty.
You to me
Currently as an external fault has not been identified and confirmed is an unfixable fault then if you were to
cancel the charges would stand. If the issue is with your devices, electrical interference etc then an engineer
call out charge will be charged at you. £144 plus vat @20%

I'm sorry if that wasn't represented correctly over the phone but I'm backing up what Alisdair has said, the fee is only relevant for the reasons he's mentioned and isn't chargeable by default.
We'd just need you to respond to the ticket agreeing to the potential charge so we could make a booking and move things forward with the fault investigation for you.

Hi @harrow
The ticket you have linked above is for you cancelling your contract during it's term. This was a different ticket to your ticket requesting we send an engineer. The engineer ticket you are looking for is at https://www.plus.net/wizard/?p=view_question&id=180974535

Hi @harrow
As explained by deank, the email copied into the post is in relation to cancelling the account. As this is not something you wish to proceed with please click here and reply with your availability for an engineers visit.
To clarify, If the engineer finds the fault to be with one of the checks we have asked you to do, you miss the appointment, or you cancel the appointment within 2 working days of the engineer visit time, we will add a one off fee of £144 (plus VAT) to your bill. This charge will appear within 90 days of the engineer visiting your property, and the engineer will demonstrate to you where the problem exists.
Thank you
