Will someone please, please turn me on!

On 11/12/13 my phone and broadband were to be activated after a house move. On the date in question I had my phone activated.....hurray! Now today 19/12/13 I still do not have any broadband. I have telephoned and waited and spoke to some very nice people who in turn passed the buck (me) to someone else (Daniel) who had assured me it would be on in just 20 minutes but no, no little green light on my router saying broadband has been activated and still I wait.
  Come on plusnet I KNOW this is not like you I have been with you for some years switch me on please!
Meant with a little wry smile and true Yorkshire determination.

I'm assuming this is ADSL not fibre. Does the router actually sync with the exchange (broadband light solid green) so it is just the internet light that is missing? Activating your connection will affect only the latter.

Thank you for your posting spraxyt,it is the broadband light that is not on so obviously the internet light will not come on.there is no broadband so it would appearas you say  the router is not synching with the exchange. Also it is adsl and not fibre
Thanks again regards

No sync could mean BT have yet to complete the order - did the agent check whether the order was flagged by BT as "complete"?

Re: Will someone please, please turn me on!

And the story continues.....
Having tried the faults troubleshooter as Mathew suggested I had a msg to say there is trouble with the trouble shooter I.e. It's broken! But the msg goes on "don't worry" our faults team will investigate and get back to you aiming to contact me within 24hours, that was 12.33 on Friday 20/12/13. Since then nothing I have been patient giving plusnet the weekend and more just to switch me on. I imagine when the date arrives for the monies to be removed from my bank to help you run plusnet you won't take as long!
