Another unhappy Shell to Talktalk customer.

I know this will probably go nowhere, but I'm posting out of sheer frustration.

 

I spent 2 hours on the phone going from dept. To dept. trying to get my  issue resolved and basically got absolutely nowhere.

 

I was moved to Talktalk after being a perfectly happy Shell customer.

I was on Shells 200 package. No problem getting the exact speed expected.

 

However after being migrated to Talktalk I get a happy email declaring I've been 'successfully' migrated to a free upgrade on to Talktalks fibre 500 package.

It states exactly this in my account.

 

Here is the issue.

Exactly the same as everyone else that has been migrated ABSOLUTELY NO CHANGE IN THE PROMISED SPEED.

Still 200mb.

 

I tried and tried to explain this to  customer services who simply kept repeating that I have been successfully migrated to the 500 package.

I may be on that package now, but not the speed!

 

All they tried to do was offer me a new contract on the 500 package at £35/m.

 

But here is the problem. There is no way in hell am I going to renew my contract if I'm still going to be stuck on 200mb, but paying for 500mb.

 

It's obvious for accounting purposes we've been put on whatever was the nearest package. But as far as the actual physical speed that hasn't happened and probably Talktalk has no intention of happening.

 

So what do I do now? I can't face another pointless session with customer services.

 

Unless my speed is upgraded to what it's meant to be I won't even consider extending my contract with Talktalk because I know what will happen.

Well guys it's been short and sweet.

I'm off to Vodafone. £28 for Fibre 910 with free landline for 24 months.

 

Sorry Talktalk but you did have your chance.

I had a feeling this would be the answer.

Not a chance will I be contacting them again. 

 

Looks like I'm moving to Vodafone then.

 

Thanks anyway.

Hi ashyt16,

 

I'm sorry but you will need to speak to the migration team. They are a dedicated team set up to help Shell migration customers. I'm afraid we can't help on the Community

Not a chance.

They didn't have a clue. After unsuccessfully dealing with my issue even after transferring me to several different depts. I ended up back with them after 2 hours.

 

All they were interested in is renewing my contract.

 

In addition I am no longer a Shell customer.

My contract is now with Talktalk as I have been 'successfully' migrated.

 

I have a Talktalk account and I'm on a Talktalk package.

I shouldn't need to speak to a separate team.

Forum staff are likely to send you back to the Shell Migration team via phone  / Chat.

 

Ensure that it is that team that you ask for.

 

Phone lines are next open from 9am on Monday. 

 

Chat should be live now.

 

Forum staff are not on here before Monday.
