Re: new phone line in but no space at bt green box for connection

Hi firebird1000,

Thank you for getting in touch with us regarding this issue. It sounds like there is capacity issues for fibre and it needs to be increased. In the meantime if you get you're mother in law to contact us on 0800 013 2632 then press option 1 then option 2 we can get this reset to ADSL so she will have a connection and then it will just be on a waiting list for capacity to increase from our suppliers.

Re: new phone line in but no space at bt green box for connection

Sorry to hear there's currently no dial tone on the line, if the orders have completed I'd recommend going through the troubleshooting guide here: https://www.plus.net/help/phone/phone-line-troubleshooting/

 

If you'd like to PM me the username for the account in question I'd be happy to have a look from our side as well.

If there are no spare connections in the cabinet you will find that all other ISPs are in the same state and all you will do is lose your place in the queue. The only alternative is if Virgin cable is available.

I believe that the email address tied to this forum name doesn't link to your Plusnet account. Are you ok to PM your username?

Re: new phone line in but no space at bt green box for connection

You sent me 3 PMs, but I'd left the office by then. Thanks for letting me know her details.

I have chased your order up, and we're being told to stick by the resolution date that we already have. Apologies for the ongoing delays, but we'll keep Ticket: 132480016 updated.
