1571 service has not worked since early April

Pippadoll99 — Mon, 13 May 2024 17:58:29 GMT

My Mum has landline only, no internet. I have 3rd party password to go on the TalkTalk Forum as she is partially sighted. She rang TalkTalk on 26/4/24 and reported the issue with her 1571 service not working. The agent advised her that they will report it and to allow 5 to 10 working days for it to be rectified. My Mum phoned TalkTalk again on 11/5/24 as the 1571 service has not been fixed. The agent advised her that if she agrees to have Voicemail Plus for £1 a month she will have the service from midnight. My mum was not happy that her free service was now going to be charged £1 a month for a new name, but she felt she had no choice so agreed. It is now Monday night and there is still no 1571 service. Please can you help as she has tried nice now via telephone and is no further forward. Thank you.

Morning,

I'm really sorry to hear this. I've escalated this straight over to our Faults Escalation Team now for investigation and I will let you know as soon as I receive an update back. It's possible that the team may also try and contact you directly.

Thanks

Michelle

Good morning,

My colleague has advised that they have made a change yesterday. Could you retest the 1571 service at some point today and let us know if there is any change please?

Thanks

Good afternoon,

My colleagues have been unable to resolve this for me so I've contacted our CEO Complaints Team and they will be investigating this and will make contact with you directly.

Thanks

Hi Pippadoll99

I'm really sorry to hear this.

Our CEO complaints team can also take a look at the bill and charges for your mum, once they have resolved the 1571 issue.

Hi Michelle,

CEO team made contact yesterday afternoon and again just now. I have just confirmed with them that the 1571 service is now back in working order. Thank you so much for escalating it. It is such a relief for my Mum to have her message service back in working order. Many thanks for all the hard work you do on this forum, it is very much appreciated

regards
