Failed Order

[#1]

Hi

I need some help and am hoping one of the Plusnet staff pick this up also.

Last night I went through the process of ordering a new fibre extra package with phone line. I entered all the payment details including credit card information for the line rental saver and direct debit.

When I got to the last page and submitted the order I was given a message "Something has gone wrong". It suggested to refresh the page which I did but this didnt solve anything. It looked to me the order had not gone through.However there was a pending charge of £217.88 showing against my credit card.I received no email confirmation to confirm the order etc

I contacted Customer Services and after 40mins on hold got through to someone to whom I explained the situation. She said she could not find my username or account details. She would back on Weds morning.

I am now really nervous as am stuck in limbo. I do not know where I a stand.

Could someone please assist and advise what has happened? If the order doesnt exist why has my credit card been charged?

I'd suggest that you contact your Credit Card company and have the transaction voided until Plusnet give some rational response to the problem.  There have been a number of teething problems with the new billing system which are still awaiting resolution.

Hi there.

I'm sorry to hear the signup process failed, but money is showing as pending on your card.

It's more than likely that this charge will be released by your bank in due course(Usually 3-5 working days).

Unfortunately if the signup journey didn't complete and no account has been created on our side then there's not much we can do to influence/speed up getting the funds released.

Once they are released(Or before) if you're still wanting to signup through feel free to send me a private message with your contact number and the best time for a call and I'll be happy to arrange a call back for you from our sales team.

Apologies for the experience you've had.

It would also help @Gandalf if you could advise him of the account name you chose and the phone line number you tried to sign-up against.

Hi,

Thank you for all the replies. I managed to get the charge reversed with my credit card company.
