Broadband still not activated

My broadband was due to be activated on the 3rd, it wasn't so I called. They said that there has been a problem and that it will be activated no later than the 6th. It still wasn't activated on the 6th so I called again, I was then told it will actually be the 7th. Its now the 8th and I'm still without a connection and I haven't heard anything from plusnet. I don't want to have to spend another hour waiting on hold to be told 'tomorrow' again. 

 

 

I've had no Internet since the original activation date and it's now literally costing me money as I work from home and I'm having to use mobile data. 

 

What is going on with my order, why has it not been activated yet?

Hi @Where

 

Please accept my sincerest apologies for the delay in activation. 

 

Can you please check your service now by switching your router off for around 60 seconds and the restarting it. 

 

If this doesn't work please get back to us and we will investigate further. 

 

Thank you.

Still no connection, though I think something happened for a second while I was away because my antivirus now says its out of date

Re: Broadband still not activated

Funny and frustrating that only now on Sunday evening have I received a text message saying a router has been mailed out to me. A week after it was meant to go live, and I didn't even ask for one.

Hi @Where, I am sorry that you are having issues.

 

It looks like a fault has since been raised, we should have an update back from the suppliers within the next 48 hours. I'm really sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Re: Broadband still not activated

Received a call from Open Reach saying they've fixed it and there was a disconnect at the exchange. Yet I still have no Internet. I've tried 3 different routers including the one that was sent to me by Plusnet.

Re: Broadband still not activated

From what I can see it looks like you're back online since making this post:

Everything working now as you'd expect?

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.
