6 days ago I made the error of ordering business broadband with new line and thinking Plusnet to be a reliable company.
Seems I was mistaken. Thought I would post the details here in case anyone can help.
When ordering I selected an installation date for an engineer to visit of 4th September.
After ordering I didn't get anything confirming the installation date, then after a couple days I notice an internal support message on my account.
Then I tried to phone but the person I spoke to was totally useless and no help at all.
I think its totally outrageous that after 6 days I am still waiting for any sort of communication about whats going on.
Here is a copy of the internal messages I see, maybe someone can explain:
===========================================================================================
We've been unable to place the order for your phone service.
Our support team will look to resolve this. You don't need to do anything.

Thanks for getting in touch @tekhoi
I'm sorry to see there has been a delay with your order and for the lack of communication regarding this. Unfortunately it looks like our automated system was unable to correctly pass this on through to our suppliers on this occasion.
I've now manually placed the order with our suppliers and we'll confirm your appointment date for an engineer to visit within the next 24 to 48 hours which would be based upon engineer availability.
If you need to change the date we provide or have any further queries, please feel free to let us know.

I have received an email and txt message that say
Your service is due to go live on 12/09/2019. Your order could complete any time on this date, up to midnight. Please don't set up your router until we confirm the service is live.
You are supposed to be sending an Openreach engineer to install a line, this doesn't say when the engineer is coming?

Thanks for getting back to us.
I can see the engineer appointment is booked for 11/09/19 between 1pm and 6pm to install your phone line. I'd expect you to receive another email to confirm this over the next 24 hours.
I hope this helps.

Hello again.
The installation failed due to an Openreach technical issue, but you have sent me an email stating it failed due to incorrect details being provided.
I have updated the open ticket with the tech details I was given.
Its pretty outrageous sending an email telling me I will be charged for a failed call when its an Openreach issue.

Hi @tekhoi, thanks for getting in touch.
I am really sorry for the email you have received surrounding the engineer visit. From speaking with our suppliers it's correct that the engineer was unable to complete the work due to further external work being required. Please note this is not through any fault of your own and I'd like to assure you that a charge will not be applicable. I've spoken to the suppliers and have provided a further update here
Regards

Hello again,
Since last Wednesday we have had 3 visits from different Openreach engineers!!
Today the engineer has told me the problem is resolved and the cabling is now connected to a new cabinet (it turns out only half the pairs into the building were connected to a cabinet)
However, he told us it may get reported back to you as a failed install because he was here just to fix the fault, to complete the line installation will need another engineer.
There is an extra bonus, the new cabinet that the line is now connected to supports VDSL (the old one was ADSL only) so I will be wanting to upgrade as well - how do I do that?

Thanks for getting back to us @tekhoi
We can see the notes from the engineer who went out today stating "Line had to be diverted from jrc next to cabinet 16, into the cab and back out. All tests passed ltok "
The orders been passed back to us now so we'll need to arrange another appointment for them to complete the installation.
Can you respond to the ticket on your account here and let us know once you've responded?
With regards to upgrading to fibre once the order is complete and the records for the line update you should be able to call us to request an upgrade

It seems that support tickets only get answered when I also post here?
Yesterday I replied to your update accepting the latest date for an Engineer to visit yet again. Don't have any confirmation yet.

My service was activated on Friday after nearly a month of waiting.
However its not the end of the problems.
This is a business broadband package that included free activation and static IP
1) In the initial invoice I have been charged a £10 activation fee
2) When I try to set a static IP I get a message that its not available on my package

Hi @tekhoi,
I'm very sorry that you have been charged an activation fee and that it's not allowing you to add the static IP, which is free of charge with your package.
I have sent you a refund of £10 for the activation fee and this'll be back in your bank account within 5-10 working days.
I have added the static IP to your account and if you reboot your router, you'll move over to the static IP right away. I can confirm that you won't be charged for this.

Hi again,
The static IP section of my account states:
Current Status: You are currently using a dynamic IP address
Based on your previous message this should have been updated I believe?
Also, this new line was connected to a cabinet that supports VDSL - however when I check the upgrade options, there are no options listed, how long will it take to show as being available?

Hi @tekhoi,
I've made some further changes to the account which should enable the Static IP Address. Please let us know if this reflects on your end of things.
Regarding the Fibre capability of your local cabinet, I can't see that Fibre would be available for yourself at this stage and I'm afraid I don't know when it will become available. If it's only just been installed recently it may take some time before things go live, so it may be worth checking for updates every now and then.

@TheMightyAJ According to the availability checker on Openreach website FTTC is available, how do I go about escalating this or logging a complaint?
