How long to speed upgrade

Hello, we have upgraded from 37mb to top fibre plus, it was due to happen today, I’ve rebooted the modem, but still on the slower speed.

When is it likely to happen.

Many thanks in advance.

Go to the help assistant at https://portal.plus.net/wizard/ and have a look through the open and closed tickets. Any indication of an upgrade date?

@duke8955

Thank you, I will do that. If anyone has been through the process I would be grateful of an estimate of how long is likely to take. Smiley

Re: How long to speed upgrade

Upgrading from basic fibre to fibre extra takes 1 working day so something’s probably gone wrong. 

Does your account show you’re on fibre extra now?

Re: How long to speed upgrade

I'm in the same position - from what I was told on the phone on Tuesday the upgrade to Fibre Extra should have happened on Wednesday but there's no sign of anything happening yet. It's rather irritating as I also ordered a change of telephone plan which won't take effect until the broadband upgrade has gone through. Even more irritatingly the new services are showing on yesterday's bill but I'm not receiving the benefit.

 

Giving the tickets relating to the upgrade and change of plan a kick this morning hasn't provoked a response.

Re: How long to speed upgrade

So basically we have to wait, I’m extremely disappointed not one from plusnet has replied to me on this forum to offer any information?

Re: How long to speed upgrade

Hi @ChrisKent, thanks for getting in touch and I'm sorry to hear your latest re-contract doesn't sound to have gone so smoothly. I've looked into both your upgrade in product and call change query and although I can't confirming my findings via this support channel I've updated a ticket on your account I'll be personally monitoring moving forwards to help correct this for you which can be seen here.

Re: How long to speed upgrade

Hi duke8955, I've just picked that up. I just needed to update the speed profile on your account so you should be connecting at the higher speed now.
