Unable to renew Line Rental Saver

[#1]

I received a reminder email to renew my line rental saver, with a link to www.plus.net/rentalsaver/. to actually pay it.

I have tried this several times with the result being this message:-

We're in the process of generating your next bill.
You will be able to add Line Rental Saver as soon as your account has been billed. We will send you an email when your bill is ready.

My line rental is due on 18/02/2019.

I have tried calling customer services several times, but each time I am told there is a long waiting time (the shortest quoted was 25 mins at about 2000 hrs this evening) I am not prepared to wait that long so I thought I would "raise a question" but that facility does not seem to exist anymore.

Can someone from PN please explain how I can solve this conundrum

So in this modern technological world, the only way to communicate with Plusnet is to wait in a phone queue for the next available call centre operator?

I have tried 0800 013 232 several times, it does not even ring.

My apologies @dejjones,

The number for our Customer Options team is 0800 013 2632. There is currently no queue.

I rang 0800 013 2632 and someone answered after 12 minutes, I explained my problem, I was then put on hold for about another 10 minutes.

It was then explained that, in the new billing system, my account was one of many Plusnet accounts that could not be accessed by Plusnet! The software team are working on it.There is nothing he or I can do until the software is corrected.
