I'm sorry for any inconvenience caused by this issue. If you think that you've been incorrectly charged for the engineer visit could you raise this in the billing section and a colleague will be happy to look into this for you

No disconnects, speeds back to contracted, one thing that is concerning is the new router you sent has a much worse range than my previous one, which was old.

But more importantly how did engineer number 1, 13th March, find the fault as a wire outside my house, 'fix' it, redirect cable with a bodge job of cable ties to gutter and downpipe, and install new master, then charge me £75 for the privilege of a fault outside my premises.

Then number 2 found the fault was on the pole opposite my house, 'fixed' it but speeds were still terrible.

It took engineer number 3 to do a full check and finally find the fault on Openreach cable away from property, it would seem this was the true fault all along.

8 weeks of terrible, or in fact no, broadband and which has cost me 3 days off work waiting in for engineers.

@TaffyCannonball, as mentioned by staff in an earlier post, start a new thread in the billing section for anything to do with compensation / charges etc.

 

As explained here, automatic compensation can take a full month to come through, after resolution of a fault:

Staff will pick up your new thread after the Bank Holiday weekend.

All good as of today. Now as I've suffered 8 weeks of no connection or terrible slow speed let us talk compensation.

Engineer confirmed fault is somewhere between pole opposite property and Openreach cabinet, has stated is now fixed.

8 weeks and 3 engineers to sort out a simple line fault, unbelievable.

I'm really sorry to hear this. We'll check back in with you on Wednesday to see how you're getting on. If regards to the engineer charge, if you could create a new topic in the Billing Section please then my colleague Arne can investigate this charge for you.

So the engineer today says the fault was loose connection on Openreach line and has fixed, speeds now back to contracted and no disconnects. So why was I charge £75 by the first engineer who didnt fix anything?

Sadly the last time they were here they 'fixed' the problems, a wire outside my house before the junction box, then charged me £75 as they reported to Talktalk that the problem was inside the house. Rerouted and fitted a new master box, rerouted using cable ties on gutter and drain pipe!!, and fitted a cheapo box. Since then speeds slow and/or disconnecting regularly. 

I no longer have any trust in their work but we shall see.
