Checking your details - how long?

My father ordered Plusnet Broadband on Monday this week. Bit worried to see it still saying checking your details after 3 days.
When he first tried to order PN BB my old man expected to give credit card details but PN insisted that they wanted bank direct debit. This meant he had to phone back with those details.
Later, when he got the confirmation email, it said becasue "you" have chosen to pay by DD this will delay things by up to 5 days. Grrrrrr!
He phoned back and gave credit card details in addition to the DD bank details and was told this would speed things up. Well if this is faster what would slower have been like?
Can we do anything to get this kicked off?

Even acorns dont mature over night
PN have to contact BT Wholesale, Who then contact BT Openreach, this takes time, even in this modern age, so about 4 to 5 days is normal after the CC details are added

It looks like the order has been placed, we'll update you by ticket and email as soon as we get any further updates.

Thank you for the welcome.
I think the thing that bothered me is that the status says "checking your details", not awaiting BT open reach or whatever. We were thinking what does checking your details mean, and thought it must be this DD setup which if we've also given a credit card shouldn't be a problem I wouldn't have thought.
Thanks anyway.
Bob.

Hi Matt,
I'm impressed that you managed to work out which account it was, how on earth.....?
Good news though thanks.
Bob.

Quote from: scotslass86 Ive recently joined too and the whole process took 1 week from ordering BB to being activated so it shouldn't be too long

Don't worry though, it's only staff
Edit: Corrected as per the above, it's only staff that can see these details (thanks very much Jim)

Similar to this enquiry, I'm at this point & I'm just hoping my move over from Sky Fibre LLU is able to progress.
Can any staff confirm how long this might take?
Generally, I'm impressed by the service so far, and the way these forums seem to operate.
Head and shoulders above Sky.

The issue at present is that your line isn't currently showing on BTs database so we can't actually place an order for the service yet. We've requested an update to get the line added so we can place an order and are waiting for confirmation that that has happened at the moment.
As soon as it is we'll be able to pick up where the ticket left off and book an appointment to get things working for you, I'm sorry for the delay.
Hope that helps explain

Do I need to get Sky to cut off my service first?
Or just bite the bullet and let Plusnet add in a new line?
