Ordering Plusnet Fibre to new home

 

I am in the process of purchasing a new home.

The home is a new build, and has a BT socket installed. However it is not active. The house is not built on a development, it is just 1 of 2 houses that were built in place of an older house (i.e. 2 new houses replaced the 1 old house). So the house numbers are 2 and 2a respectively.

 

When I put in the 2a address on the http://dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/ADSLChecker.AddressOutput It says that fibre is available. This address also works with the plusnet online ordering system. Est speeds of 60-80 mb

 

When I put in the 2 address which is next door (the property which I am exchanging on soon fingers crossed) – it says that there is no data available from this address. When i enter this address into the plusnet online ordering system, it says only ADSL is available.

 

 I wanted to check, to save me the headache later, if there is any corrective action required on the openreach side to correct this database issue before I place an order for the fiber internet with a provider like sky etc. Seeing as 2a is able to place an order and is registered, can i get help in correcting the information for 2 so that when i order plusnet i don't have any delays?

Hi kp65,

 

Welcome to the Forums! 

I'm afraid we have no jurisdiction when it comes tot he Openreach or BT systems. 

 

The best thing i can suggest is calling our Provisioning Team and explaining the situation to them - it's their specific job to get stuff like this sorted out for you. 

 

Let us know how you get on .

Hi there.

If you can send me a private message with the addresses, I'll be happy to look into this for you.

Hi Gandalf, any idea on how long your query will take with OR?

We should have an update by the end of the week.

Apologies for the delay, there's not much we can do to chase them up until after a week has passed.
