Additional FTTP Account

Hello,
I'm an existing business customer with PlusNet and have been for 17 years (!). The last 18 months or so I have been lucky enough to have FTTP with you guys at my business. I have recently brought a property in the same FTTP area which I am doing up and will be living in hopefully by Christmas. I would like PlusNet FTTP there also, but want to keep my existing business FTTP account going.
As such I guess I need to create an additional PlusNet account for myself for personal use (and of course recommend myself) but that I guess would mean I am not an existing user and could not join the 'trial'?
The property does have an old phone line going into it, though I don't plan on using it. From what I have seen on here, It would seem the process would be:
1. get phone line up with you and ADSL
2. Order FTTP
3. Get FTTP installed
4. Cancel phone line.
My questions then:
Is this correct?
Is there a more direct way?
As I don't plan on keeping the phone line, will I be able to cancel the line without being tied into a contract as soon as FTTP is fully functional?
Thanks
Mark

That all looks correct.

I'd recommend giving myself or @MattyC a nudge once you've raised the FTTP Trial ticket through http://trials.plus.net and we'll make sure the order is placed for you.

The contract should stay the same as whatever you've signed up to. If you're wanting no contract, it would be best to select this on signup and it'll stay as no contract when it moves to the FTTP trial (Unless you specifically change to a new account with a new contract or take a recontracting offer independently of the trial.)

Hello.
I have today signed up for the new ADSL account as discussed, taking advantage of the £75 cashback.... As there is no phone loine at the property, an engineer will apparently need to visit, so that is not until 1st November. Not worried as I said we don't plan on using the ADSL or phone line, but it is the start for the FTTP access. You asked to prompt you here so that is what I am doing. What do you need from me to start the FTTP process? Thanks

Thanks.
It looks like the FTTP ticket was picked up much quicker than I'm used to and someone else has already picked it up and asked you to answer the necessary questions to sign up for the trial.
If you could respond to this, we should be able to progress with the order.

Thanks Harry. I have responded, and it is now on hold until the ADSL and line are installed, which I guess is to be expected. I'll update here once that has happened. Thanks

Hi Harry,
A nudge as promised. This morning Openreach came and activated the phone line so I guess we are good to go with the Fibre install? Not tested ADSL itself yet though as I think there is something odd with the new account as I can't even log in to the Plusnet Portal with it - perhaps because it is not yet live?
Thanks

I've made sure the FTTP order has been placed.

The ADSL isn't active yet. It should be active within 4-7 working days now the phone order has completed.

You should be able to log in to the member centre from sign-up, the fact that services aren't live should not prevent this.
Do you receive an error message at all?

Hi Harry,
Well I had a message yesterday saying the ADSL went live, but I don't think I'll even test is because... Also yesterday Open Reach did the outside work for FTTP I assume now an appointment needs to be made for the internal works? I am amazed at how quickly we have got this far. I've not had the FTTP router yet though. Will it be PlusNet or Openreach that contact me to arrange the internal appointment?
Thanks

Glad to hear it's going well so far. Apologies the appointment hadn't been confirmed to you yet.
I've updated the ticket confirming the internal appointment and dispatched your router for you.
If you need to change the appointment, please respond to the ticket and give me a nudge here on the forums

Hi Harry. I've updated the ticket asking for the internal appointment to be rescheduled. Sadly I am needed at my sons school that morning - typical eh. You asked me to nudge you on here too. Many thanks

Just another nudge... Bit worried that Openreach will turn up tomorrow and find me out. I can't be there until about 11am. Have tried here and on the My questions section to change the appointment, but not had a response. Thanks
