John Lewis Broadband Customer Service!

After leaving Plusnet I joined JL using the same username. It was a better deal than staying with Plusnet even though it's still Plusnet BB. After 12 months with JL I moved on. However, the final bill was vague, with no itemisation for my telephone calls and I asked for a breakdown of what I was actually being charged for. I am happy to pay the bill but I think it is reasonable to know what the bill is covering. Anyway, this proved to be a bit of a hurdle and took at least 6 weeks to get the answer. Shortly before receiving the itemised bill, I received a letter saying that the "debt" was being passed to a collection agency which I was unhappy about. I called JL and asked why they had done this and was promised that billing would call me about this...which they didn't do. Then I received an email with a full breakdown and explanation of the charges. I added my card details for payment as requested on the email. Next I receive a letter from the collection agency demanding payment (for the wrong amount) so phoned JL again and they took payment of the bill. My account with JL has now been closed, I have no access to my bills even though it tells me I can access them for 15 months after closure (this is a side point), and I am now being harassed by collection company (PDCS) about the debt which I do not owe. Not sure if this has ever been said but I am glad to be the EE part of BT.

Unfortunately these forums are only for PN issues and JL aren't covered.

Yes that's very true. However, since JL is provided by Plusnet I think it is appropriate to share this experience despite nothing being done about it.

@dvorak says this is not for these Forums but I did wonder if you had raised your issues directly with John Lewis the actual company rather than the re-branded bit of Plusnet that deals with their broadband?
