Service Notice #289243426

Service Notification

An update report has been received for this account.
The broadband service is now being transferred to the 21C Network.
The transfer will complete by midnight on 22/10/2016.

Is this expected? At no point did I receive an email to confirm my order.

They are just internal notifications to show us the status of your order and is nothing to worry about.

We have received a further update and your fibre upgrade is now due for the 21st Oct.

Hi,

Sorry to revive this thread, I received and email to say my product change is now complete but you said the upgrade is due for 21st October, why is this? Does this mean I will be paying for fibre from now?

I have not received the new router yet

Regards

Dan.

There have been reports of people receiving activation emails early. One of the Plusnet staff on the forum should be able to confirm if it's gone through. Alternatively a quick live chat with customer services at plus.net/contact will be able to give you the answer

Hi Dan_the_Van,

Your package has changed for your new billing period but any gap in the service will be amended in your bill so you are not paying for something your not using.

[#6]

Hi Ben,

Thanks for your reply.

You did not say when I can expect the new router, will I expect a further email when I've been migrated to Fibre?

Regards

Dan.

[#7]

Yeah sorry about that. The router should be with you in the next 3-5 days and will arrive through the post.

You will receive a text confirmation and email for when the order is completed.

[#8]

Well its the 21st October and I appear not be upgraded yet, I have been paying for fibre service since 9th Oct.

Please advise

Regard Dan.

The order is still showing as due to complete today, it can happen any time through out the day though.

I've also refunded your most recent invoice down to what you would have been paying for the normal broadband service too, that refund will return to you in 7-10 working days.

[#10]

Many thanks for your speedy reply and for the refund.

Just a case of waiting then.

Regards, Dan.

Well something has happened, received this update: -

The order we placed to change your upload speed has completed.
Your upload speed is now 2Mbit/s.

Router reports: -

Downstream:	39.99 Mbps
Upstream:	1.999 Mbps

I am not seeing any improvement in download speeds!

Speed of Me

I am no more than 100 meters from cabinet

Is this expected within the first hours of fibre?

Had a chat session with [CSA Removed], he has resolved this issue.

Thanks

Having expecting the whole process to be transparent I encounter two issues.

1) Slow than expected IP Profile - resolved by chat room support

2) No dial tone on my phone line, which is still the case I have raised a case.

Your Help Assistant Question is now being placed on hold. The next action on your Question will be 24-10-2016.

I can say I am very impressed with this!

Sorry to hear you're experiencing a phone fault following the upgrade to fibre. It looks like our suppliers have now advised an estimated response time of tomorrow any time up until midnight.
