My service has be disconnected too early

I switched to sky broadband on Saturday 16/11 and was given a connection date of 02/12. However, my plusnet connection went down on 19/11.

After speak to plusnet, they didn’t seem to know what was going on, and was told they would need to investigate further.

I got a message last night saying my line had been incorrectly ceased and will now have to wait 48 hours for a further update.

We have now been left without broadband, what can I do now?

Go for a walk? Talk to each other? Read a book? There are lots of options.

Re: My service has be disconnected too early

Hi @Lb2,

 

Thanks for getting in touch.

 

I'm sorry to hear that, I can confirm our suppliers have asked us to review this after 22/11/19 so we shall be doing so then.

 

In the meantime, if you need any further assistance, please let us know.

 

Thanks - LF

Thanks for your reply, but it is nearly the end of the day on 22/11 and there has been no change and no body has been in contact.

Hi @Lb2

 

I'm really sorry but as LF advised, we were informed to check back after the 22nd not on the 22nd. We wouldn't be able to provide an update for you at this moment in time. 

 

We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

 

Kind Regards

Lb2

Re: My service has be disconnected too early

Thanks, but the only update I have received is to tell me I will now have to wait until the 26/11 for an update!

Don’t think plusnet have any intention of reconnecting me, just keep sticking another 3 day ticket on it and stringing me along.

Funny how plusnet can disconnect me immediately after switching when the move date is 02/12, but then have such a difficulty in reconnecting me, especially when it is their own parent company BT that is handling this.

I have no faith I will be reconnected before the 02/12 and plusnet are just sitting it out.

The whole reason I’m switching in the first place is because the broadband service is appalling, it keeps dropping and is painfully slow.

No mention of a refund or compensation.

Thanks for getting back to us @Lb2

Unfortunately, it does appear that our suppliers have ceased the line early but due to the issues mentioned on the ticket, we can't guarantee that your services will come back on before you transfer to your new provider.

We'll obviously refund you for any downtime and in terms of compensation, we'll get that arranged depending on how the situation pans out.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused
