Pre-registered ... no email yet

I pre-registered a couple of weeks ago (immediately I received the invitation to do so). The service has gone live today and customers are able to purchase SIM deals, however I have not yet been contacted regarding the pre-registration offer.
Have other 'pre-registrants' been contacted? Should I just wait patiently or do I need to make a noise?

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

I was going to ask the same question, nothing received, and the webpage with the special pregistratiom offer has now changed. Hope that they haven't lost my pre-reg.

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

Just saw the other thread with an update from PN. We should receive an email with instructions on how to apply.

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

I assume you mean this:
"You should receive an email shortly which will contain instructions on how to submit your order. Alternatively, our Team have a list of those who have pre-registered and they'll make an outbound call to make sure this is processed for you."


"shortly" is too vague a term for me - I'd prefer "by the end of today" or "within 48 hours" or whatever, so at least I'd know when to start asking questions if I haven't heard anything 😕

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

At least now I know it's not just me ...... it would be interesting to know if anyone who pre-registered has been contacted yet ....

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

I am in the same boat. I contacted the live chat, they are saying the emails are being sent today and should be with me by this evening...?

Hi, 

We're working to contact all customers as quickly as possible, and you all should have heard something by Friday. We will contact you by e-mail, phone or both. If you're wanting to go through with the deal any sooner then you can always contact us by calling 0800 079 1133 and speak to one of our Sales Team.

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

I had pre registered but anticipated a delay in being contacted so went ahead today and rang up. I was pleasantly surprised to hear a lovely young lady called Megan who, in a beautiful Yorkshire accent, talked me through the whole application procedure. My new sim will be here in two days and then it's finally goodbye to Virgin Mobile. I only hope they will provide me with a PAC code without undue hassle. Thumbs_Up

Should have heard something by FRIDAY?Huh

 

I'd have thought that a bulk emailing would take seconds - seems to work well enough for various other PN announcements after all so why're things so slow?

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

I signed up anyway this morning, having not had the email.
Presumably, I could either:
- Call up and upgrade to the pre-registration deal
- Upgrade to that deal after 30 days (as a broadband customer I get the 4Gb for £10 anyway)

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

This morning I felt impatient; so I signed-up and ordered my SIM over the phone (and got the pre-registration deal), however for those still waiting to be contacted, I received my email at 15:40 this afternoon; so things are moving along.

The guy I spoke to on the phone said that interest had been much greater than anticipated and they had something like 20,000 enquiries to deal with; so I guess they're staggering contacting people to even out the load.

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

My new Plusnet sim arrived in the post this morning. However it is not activated. Apparently we have to wait for two days before the sim activates. Then its only a matter of getting a PAC code from Virgin Media and away we go.

So far I am very impressed with Plusnet service.

Re: Pre-registered ... no email yet

The emails to sign up to PlusNet mobile (if you pre-registered) have indeed been staggered so that we can continue to offer a consistently excellent service to all of you.  The last thing we want is a bottleneck and interest from pre-registration was very high.  Keep an eye on your email account and one should be through shortly if you haven't got it you can call us if you don't want to wait. 

 

My SIM card arrived yesterday and activated today when I received my welcome email.  This is for security reasons but we have discussed internally here about whether we need to make this clearer for you all.  Based on feedback we receive we may look at some of the finer wording again in the future if this creates uncertainty/problem(s).
