Compensation due to loss of service.

craigie — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 15:44:53 GMT

I have several times contacted TalkTalk concerning compensation for my 7-day loss of service in January 2023 due to a faulty router, on each occasion I have been promised that action is being taken but to date, I have received no verbal or written confirmation nor I have I been advised of the sum due. I am at present in the cooling period of a new contract and considering my options in view of the current position. Please advise situation urgently.

@craigie, staff are unlikely to respond before Monday.

Depending on which end of January you had the loss of service, it may take a week or two longer to calculate, but should show in your next bill.

Details of how the scheme works are here:

You'll see that if a fault starts on a Friday and is resolved the next Friday, you would qualify for 3 days.

Hi craigie

It appears that a credit has now been applied to your account on the 27th Feb, you should be able to see it in My Account.

Regards.

Same thing happened to us several times, contacted every time, was trying to work from home, they didn't care and assured me that I would receive an auto payment but it never came! Guess they also count on people giving up chasing them so that they can keep the money for themselves.
