Joke network

Signed my mother up to this network at the weekend and sim card came yesterday. Says on the sim card paperwork that account should be up and running. Sim card does not work so I called plus net last night who told me it can take up to 24 hours for the account to become active. Well this evening its still not working so I ring up again after being on hold for 1/2 hour told to wait another 24 hours and ring again apparently no technical team that they can get in touch with to sort it out. What sort of mickey mouse company is this. Tried removing sim card and restarting the phone as advices.

Re: Joke network

Everyone should just tell them NO - cancel the account and refund - as soon as they get that first - FO (Fob Off) ring back tomorrow

 

Of course, then you will get the second FO - Cant cancel your account as its not active yet - ring back tomorrow ....

Re: Joke network

I don't see how they can say the account isn't active when they take the first month payment before sending the sim card

Re: Joke network

Plusnet seems to be a collection of loose associations

 

DD is set up first despite being only loosely connected to billing, which in turn is loosely connected to your account

But your account application is the front end which means without it all they can do is let the dd carry on billing you ....

EVEN if nothing other than the DD is actually working

Stopping the DD seems to result in threat'O'Grams

 

Is my sig still showing the links - report them. Its straightforward
