Nope. Still no refund on money taken. Still no compensation. Still trying to take money from me. Absolute joke

Hi SteHul91
I've checked for an update on this fault and Openreach have provided the below:
The fault has been identified on the underground cable and a team of engineers are required to replace the faulty cable. Work should start by 25/03.

Just my personal opinion, I can't understand why you would be thinking about cancelling your contract at this stage.
The way I see it, if it were me:
cons:
- Need to make sure they refund payment already made
- Need to make sure early contract termination charges don't get applied
- Would cancelling mean danger of never seeing compensation payment which is clocking up all the time?
- Won't get connected any quicker (possibly longer by time switching process completes)
pros:
- Can't think of any

Hi SteHul91
To place a cancellation you can call our Customer Loyalty Team during Business hours on 03451 720088
Just to make you aware, this fault will still be present with a different provider until the fault has been fully fixed by Openreach.
Thanks

@SteHul91 CISAS will only adjudicate after the ISP's complaints process has reached deadlock.
If you call TT and cancel I am sure they will refund you whatever you have paid.
If you can wait for Openreach to do the repair and get you connected then you should be in for a shed load of compensation.
Neither TT or Openreach have done anything illegal.
You have just been unlucky that the local infrastructure has a major fault.

Hi SteHul91
Openreach provide estimated resolution dates and these can change depending on the work/fault.
As previously advised compensation will be applied once the fault has been resolved.

The fix date has been breached and now extended a further 48hrs. This is truly unacceptable. I will now be contacting CISAS! And what happens to my money thats been taken from my account?

Yes you cant ring the engineer but you can ring openreach and ask them what the hell is going on or playing at. It is not on. You have taken a direct debit from my account. Ombudsman would laugh at you its illegal. Its 3 werks with no internet. This day of age its completely and utterly disgeaceful and not acceptable
