Router problem

[Brins]

My router kept loosing wi fi very frequently, I requested a new router but the only way I could get one was to pay £39,99 which has just shown on my bill.

The new router completely sorted my problem and is now solid as a rock, my question is how can I request a refund for this new router ?

I have removed your phone number from display, you should never post personal details in public. Complete your profile as previously advised where only you and TalkTalk have access to the information.

Hi @Brins 

Please can you add your TalkTalk landline or account number to your Community Profile, I can then take a look at the router charge for you.

Thanks

@Brins, this is your thread.

Staff were replying to the other customer, @windlesham1, who should not have posted on yours! It obviously causes confusion when this happens. 

I'll re-escalate your thread.

Re: Router problem

Hi Michelle

I have tried to create my own topic but I don't know how, could you please look into my problem, also could you send a return bag and when testing my old router could you refund the £39.99 as I do not think customers should pay for replacements when old routers go bad.

I am 86 and getting tired now of asking, I just seem to get the run around as talk talk do not seem to want to help.

At one point TalkTalk had sent 4 routers -this time around my router is playing up but they won't send one as a test. The old one is OLD and we have a new phone line which may have caused it to start malfunctioning

Hi Brins

The account notes say that you agreed to pay for a replacement in a call on the 14th Nov. 

[Gliwmaeden2]

You simply have to wait for a staff response on here, @Brins. 

It won't be before Monday, so just wait for their reply. 

[Brins]

I forgot to add, they did promise to send a prepaid return bag but it never came, I still have the old router and I am very willing to return it if I new how,

[Gliwmaeden2]

Usually a router is sent out for testing purposes if you order through the forum, @Brins, and if it solves the problem you need to return the old one, so it's a simple swap. Then there's no problem with charges unless you forget to return the old router!

You'll need to complete your community forum profile details for Talktalk staff to identify your account. Go via your avatar; settings...Personal Information. Scroll down to SAVE CHANGES. 

Staff will respond after the weekend. 

You will still need to send back the defunct router, so ask for a reply paid returns bag if none is included with the new one.
