Cannot view bill in new billing system

[#1]

I know others have reported on this.

I went to look up my latest bill after receiving an email re my next bill is now payable.

Nothing appeared on billing screen so eventually had online chat and was informed my account was frozen due to invoicing problems. Would be sorted and I will be mailed when all is ok.

That was the middle of the week and still I cannot view my bills.

How long does it take to sort this problem out?

Well I'm blowed. Looking at other complaints I found that reports blame Firefox for this problem, nothing to do with account frozen, so I opened Edge and logged in and hey presto, up came my bill!!!

Makes one ask, who is the idiot, me or the advisor at Plusnet giving me false information!

Hi @dannygog1

I'm having the same problem. Have been going round in circles for more than  half an hour. You say you opened Edge. What is that?

[#4]

Hi.

I was using Firefox as a browser when the problem started.

After research I saw a lot of people having the same problem had opened a different web browser and that seemed to work.

Edge is the browser in Windows 10, took the place of Internet Explorer.

Tried it and it worked for me. Doesn't excuse the failure of PlusNet to sort the problem but it might be a stopgap.

Worth a try.

Hi @jennyandmike 

Did using a different browser help you at all? 

Thanks,

Yes, using Edge allowed me to see my bills where Firefox would not.

Further to my last I have just tried to use Firefox again to view my bills. Still the same, will not display.

Edge does although it takes a few seconds to load.

Again a further update. Firefox just released a new version which I installed a minute ago and tried PlusNet billing again.

This time it would not display bills but came up with Network Protocol error, please contact web page provider. No idea what it means but it seems to point to a clash between Firefox and PlusNet.

Hi @dannygog1,

Thank you for providing us this information. As the alternative web browser, Edge, seems to be working as intended for you, I would recommend to use this when trying to access your bills.

I have had this problem with PN bills ever since the new system came in. Yes can login to see them with MS Edge, sometimes with Chrome but not always. Finally after a successful viewing with edge and few retries will allow bills to be seen in Chrome then sometimes in Firefox which is my default browser. FF Ver65.01 64bit on W10 ver 1809 Not really impressed with PN's lack of progress on solving this for one of the major browsers in use worldwide.

Hey @Merlin,

Thanks for sharing that info with us.

I'm glad that MS edge is working for you. Rest assured the accessibility of using other web browsers is something that is been explored and we hope to have it sorted soon. For now, I would suggest using the browsers you have found work for you as a temporary solution.

Please do let us know if there is anything else we can help with.

Well 5 months on and still the problem of viewing bills remains! White screen of death syndrome

Hi @Merlin

I am so sorry that this issue is still ongoing on your account. I assure you this is actively being investigated by our Incident Management Team and we will be sure to inform you as soon as a resolution is put in place.

I do apologise for any inconvenience caused in this time and if you need further assistance please let us know.

I am still having the same problem, just a white screen when attempting to view bills in Firefox 68.01. Now another issue has come up: latest bill should have been on 25 July but it's not there last one is 25 June and I have to use Chrome to get to that. Come on PN why can't you get this billing right. I have no problem with other online billing systems and so many other customers are experiencing these issues. I must go to the Which Forums to see what is said there. Screen shot of bills drop down attached.

Thanks for getting back to us.

We’re aware that a small number of customers are still experiencing problems from our new billing system and we’re working hard to fix these legacy issues. We want to reassure those affected that may not have received a bill from us recently, we’re doing all we can to get everything back on track. We’re sorry that this isn’t the service customers have come to expect from us and give our assurance this will be sorted as soon as we can.
