Fibre line assigned to wrong address

Stuiee — Tue, 13 Jun 2023 18:55:13 GMT

Hello all

I’m writing to you as I have no where else to go, I have been without internet for a month now with no sight of a light at the end of the tunnel. It all started when my provider at the time TalkTalk cancelled my Internet because someone contacted them regarding moving providers which wasn’t me, after about a week back and forth on the phone I found that’s because the property I live in has changed names and another property on the premises has my old name. My fibre line is registered to the wrong address, so even though I have a fully working fibre line because openreach have that line under the wrong address I can’t get any provider to give me my fibre internet back. Please if anyone has had this before or knows who to contact to sort the issue I’d be so grateful as I have no idea where to go from here.

regards Stuart

In your community forum profile details, @Stuiee, add the new address in Personal Information. At the end of that section, in Private Notes, add the old address that was previously registered with your Talktalk landline number etc.

Hi Stuiee

Thank you.

In your post you say the address you live in now has a different name, has this been registered with the royal mail? as this is where Openreach will get your new address from.

The address has been updated with Royal Mail, just the fibre line is assigned to the old address which is the address of another property on the farm

Also the address on the account is the old address

Its a tricky one, the property that has taken your old name needs to submit an ORDI request to update openreach via whoever is there service provider is. We cant do this for your address as there is no active asset.

Right I’ve tried that there provider won’t do anything I’ve now been told I need a cease-and-desist on the line attached to my property and then re install it under the right address
