New fibre connection not working

I had full fibre installed on Wednesday morning and since Friday lunchtime the service has been offline.  I then received an email saying TalkTalk are aware of the fault and an engineer will be on their way in 2-3 working days.  Presumably that'll be Tuesday/Wednesday.

Is this serious????  I work from home and rely on solid internet - which is why I was delighted to be offered the upgrade.

Unbelievably bad customer service.  How can this be escalated?

No, I didn't see much point as I assume they are aware there is still a problem.  I was going away for the weekend so I had no time (my family used hot-spots for the weekend).  Other than expressing my frustration I didn't see what delaying my departure would achieve.

However, it's still not working, so I have been without the service for almost 5 days now, after 2 days of operation.  I will try the chat today unless I hear otherwise.

In the meantime I reconnected the old service and luckily it's still working, so at least we're live again now.  Glad I didn't return the old equipment immediately!!!

Morning,

 

I'm sorry to hear this. Can I just confirm, did you manage to chat with our Live Chat team?

 

Thanks

Thanks very much for your time, I will do.

I had a visit from a BT Openreach this morning - obviously completely useless as they can't touch the City Fibre installation, so the chap was very apologetic as he left after doing nothing.  I've since received a message from TalkTalk to say the call is complete and the fault is cleared!!!  Obvs that's not the case.

I'll go onto chat now then.
