Broken equipment when needing to return at end of service

Message 5 of 5

This is a question requiring official response from TalkTalk about my future interactions with TalkTalk. This isnt a community fixable issue.

For the love of god TalkTalk why dont you have a support ticket system.

Anyway...

 

I dont know the terms of my agreement, as they are not provided in the email communcation at account setup. And I cannot find navigation to current active terms of agreement via my account page.

 

My situation:
My modem's power adapter has failed and no longer functions. I have alternatives so I do not need a repair/replacement.

My problem:
TalkTalk despite forcing long term contracts, and then rinsing even more money out of you after you're now out of contract. I have noticed through this forum and other sources that TalkTalk had the audacity to require return of equipment when you leave them as a customer, even after fulfilling your contract lengths. With non-compliance warranting a further fee of £50 or thereabouts.

My question:
If I do not replace go through a repair/replacement process, which will probably require a whole new modem, and probably a visit from a technician I would imagine. As I do not need a new power adapter.
At the point of ending my service with TalkTalk, and TalkTalk demand return of equipment. Are TalkTalk going to charge me £50 for a missing power adapter?

If you're just a user, please dont try and throw your opinion in on this, unless you have gone through this exact same situation, please. I need an actual answer.

Hi

 

You would not be charged if you returned the router without the power adapter.

 

Thanks  

Karl.

Yes, that seems to happen quite often when people first post, @HonestlyJustTiredOfThis, and is rather a nuisance. 

 

I just move the later copy out of the way, to avoid confusion (not always successfully...!). 

 

It looks like it will be tomorrow before you get a response from staff.
