Compensation? Still not recieved after the "30 days"

At the beginning of last month my service went down, upon calling to report this fault I was told I would automatically recieve compensation for my down time. The fault has since been resolved and it has been over 30 days but I still have not recieved the compensation as promised

Hi @LizzieK,

I'm really sorry we've not provided automatic compensation for the downtime you had.

I've calculated the amount and I've added the credit onto your account. You'll receive an email to confirm in 2 hours.

Let me know if there's anything else you need help with.

Seems to be a common problem. I am still waiting for just over £300 for a major outage some weeks back. There has even been another 3 day outage since!

Hi @MartinGoose,

I'm really sorry for the loss of service you've had and apologies we haven't automatically applied the compensation.

I've manually calculated what we owe you and applied it as a credit towards your next bills.

I've dropped you an email Here which explains how I've worked that out.

Re: Compensation? Still not recieved after the "30 days"

The amount you quote is incorrect. Question #227143900 records the fault as running from 26-08-2022 to 02-10-2022. I make that 37 days. The fault affected over 20 lines and required the ordering and replacement of a 600 pair cable.

I would have replied to the ticket but that does not seem possible.

Hi @MartinGoose,

I've read the ticket ref 227143900 again and I can see the fault began as a noisy line, but then on the 5th September you confirmed that the line is not working as of that morning, which suggests it was working previously?

Re: Compensation? Still not recieved after the "30 days"

You are over interpreting the words 'noisy line'. At times there was noise that completely overpowered any dial tone. At other times the line was completely dead.  This rendered the phone unusable between the dates stated in the ticket. 

 

Perhaps you should speak to the various Plusnet staff involved who are aware of the details.
