line and broadband cut off in error help!

my line and broadband was cut off in error by plusnet on 25.11.19 when my contract ended even though i already agreed to a new term and got the terms through in confirmation email. iv had no line or broadband since then. they have had to set up a whole new account, line and broadband as they totally disconnected it. my line is now active today 2.12.19 but no sign of the broadband i desperatly need. does anyone know how much longer this will take? can anyone help speed this up? really unhappy with this service and the whole household are racking up data charges on our plusnet mobiles due to no wifi. please help

Router will be ok maybe need to update the username and call to give them your old acc details to add the serial number of your router to your new account. Id have hoped usually its 24hours or so omce the lines activated...did you have a date given for going live?

Re: line and broadband cut off in error help!

On any of the tickets does it say to call once the phone goes live or anything? Id probably call to speak to the provisioning team to check the otder and hopefully they will be able to see a date/engineer .. close at 9pm so be open a while yet

Re: line and broadband cut off in error help!

Hi @donnawilson11, I'm sorry to hear your connection was cut off incorrectly and you're currently awaiting for the service to be re-provisioned. I can confirm that your broadband order is currently committed for 09/12/19 and can take up until midnight to come active. I'm afraid there's no steps we can take to progress this broadband order any sooner as all broadband orders take a minimum 10 working days. The new router would arrive a day or 2 before the order completes however I've given it a nudge now and it should be with you in the next 3-5 days but usually arrives sooner. By all means once you're up and running then please do let us know and we'll happily look at applying a goodwill gesture given the issues caused due to your connection being cut off.

Re: line and broadband cut off in error help!

Hi @donnawillson11, It's great to hear you're now all back up and running again and we'd be happy to look at offering you a goodwill gesture due to this ordeal that has occurred. Although I can;t discuss the specifics via this support channel I've updated a ticket on your account which requires action from yourself and can be seen here.
