Switch to Fibre

[#1]

Hi,

I recently placed an order to switch to fibre broadband and this is due to happen on Tuesday 25th September. I have not received the router, can you confirm if this has been sent and will be received in time?

Is there anywhere I can check the status of this order?

Thanks,

Ang

Hi there.

It looks like your upgrade has been delayed to the 3rd October due to engineer availability. Sorry for the lack of communication regarding this. As we'd order a router 48 hours before an order completion date, it hasn't been ordered yet but I've manually pushed the button now so you should receive it next week. Let us know if you have any further queries.

Hi Gandalf,

thanks for the reply. Nothing personal to you as I know you’re at the coal face dealing with issues like this.

The main reason I stayed with Plusnet (it was a close call) was I had received a pretty good service up to now. However, this really isn’t good enough and my case does not seem to be an isolated case. Had I’d been given a date of Oct 3rd in the first place I probably would have accepted but I was given Sept 25th and received no communication that this wasn’t the case.

All things considered I’m not happy with the service I have received and I would like to cancel the order with a view to switching to another provider and better deal. Kindly advise how I cancel the order or if this notification is sufficient.

regards,

Ang

Unfortunately we can't advise of a confirmed completion date in the first instance as we'd only know this after placing the order with our suppliers.

I do appreciate we didn't advise you of the change in date afterwards and I do apologise for the inconvenience caused.

If you'd like to cancel and if you're within the cooling off period you'll need to call our cancellations team on 0800 013 2632.

If you cancel your Order you will probably lose the 3rd October date as well.

OpenReach treat all ISP's equally so whoever you move to will get the next slot available.

Hi BMC,

that probably be the case but it’s the lack of communication that has riled me... I had rated plusnet above SKY, talk talk or BT but that’s not the case. I’m willing to wait at little longer and get a better deal as a switch.
