Migration/billing question

[#1]

Today (9th Feb) I've been billed for another month as usual.  Tomorrow I migrate to Sky.  I presume then I'll be refunded this payment minus one day?  Is this correct and if so do I need to do anything?  I am planning on calling PN once the migration is complete anyway just to confirm I have migrated.

Hi mitchell20,
We require 10 days notice for a cancellation so you should get a refund for in the region of 19 days worth of service.
Up to you if you want to call but feel free to post here instead and I'll confirm the migration for you.

Err sorry no, I called for my MAC a week last Friday, you didn't issue it so I called again on the 2nd and that is the notice of migration as you even sent me an email about the cease on my line on the 2nd.  If that's not notice of cancelation then what is?

Not disputing that at all, wasn't aware of it and seeing as you had mentioned the 9th that's why I quoted 19 day to you. We still require 10 days notice but that will be taken from the original point of contact.
dick:green Quote tag fixed.

No-one has also yet explained why it took 2 phone calls to request the said MAC as well?

[#6]

I'm only able to see the notes from one of the calls I'm afraid so I can't really give you a straight answer to that. Apologies for any difficulties you may have had.

I've now migrated as Sky broadband which has been activated here this morning.  Just spoken to PN to let them know but they say nothing can be done now until 28th Feb regarding the downgrade to PAYG and any refund?

mitchell20,
I've refunded £13.26 for you which equates to 20 days service, the remaining to counts for the 10 days notice we require for cancellation. The fact that the downgrade won't happen straight away won't affect you as you'll be able to use e-mail in the meantime.

Thanks Adam.  Less refund than expected but hey this is PN we are talking about who make rules up as they go along.  Also happy to say PN mail sending works perfectly using Sky SMTP servers.

No problem, this has been done exactly by our terms and conditions, we've refunded you for any service you've paid for but have not been able to use.

I make that the 28th January so the 10 days notice from that date takes you to 7th February.

He is therefore due a full refund from the day of migration - the 10 days notice has expired.

We received a ticket on the 28th which doesn't constitute a cancellation request as we always ask (as we did on the ticket) to give us a call.

Really?

Plusnet really know how to make sure people never would consider returning!

Which I did on the same day and you did nothing about it.  Check you call records as I called Plus Net on Friday 28th around 11:00am - which I can probably provide proof off as I called from work.  I had to call YET AGAIN on the 2nd to ask once again for a MAC ( which you clearly are now denying as you cannot explain why I was not given my MAC the first time I called).
A MAC was finally generated on the 2nd on that same day and an LLU PTSN cease automatic ticket was also generated the same day.  Even counting from this date, you still owe me 4 days so my claim that you make rules up as you go along still stands.
Good riddance Plus Net......You will not be missed.

Just to add.....if I didn't call on the 28th, then why does ticket #  39330077 state:

11:10am, Friday 28 Jan 2011 Dear Mr Mitchell, Thanks for calling. Further to our conversation I will be organizing that your MAC code is generated. This can take up to 5 working days, and will be emailed to you once it is available. Please note that your account will not close until you have used this code. If you have any other questions or issues then please do not hesitate to contact us again. Kind regards,
