TalkTalk auto upgrading/makings appointments without my permission.

[spider-man]

Hi, this occurred about two years ago too and I made a similar post back when this forum thread was called "future fibre" looks like the future fibre thread and all it's posts got deleted and replaced with this full fibre thread so I'll try to explain again. I'm not 100% sure but I think Chris from TalkTalk might remember as he sorted it out for me, thanks again for that but it seems to be occurring again.

I unfortunately deal with MH issues, I am not currently interested in any upgrade as it will be added stress, I can further discuss why via private message if required.

A text and email was received earlier about my broadband being upgraded and mentions "how the upgrade was unable to go ahead" and now they will send me a new appointment date. I can't cancel this as there is no option to do so. There should be a option where you can select "I'm not interested" etc.

This happened before about two years or so ago and I made a post on here and what happened was without notifying me etc TalkTalk a few times kept on making appointments for a engineer to attend and I would update the thread I was posting on explaining what is happening and it would be cancelled but it occurred again but eventually was sorted, also couriers were delivering cables which added more stress as I didn't request any of this and if I recall correctly I think a engineer arrived once too despite it being cancelled.

Currently it looks like no appointment has been made so far but I am hoping someone from TalkTalk on here could talk to a higher up and cancel this/stop this upgrade process. In the past I've not had luck with live chat etc regarding this.

While I am thankful for the free kind offer and I would accept but because of the process of engineers etc and my current set up, I cannot go ahead with the upgrade right now as stated previously because it would be more additional stress and currently too much for me to handle. So I'm hoping this can be cancelled because last time it was auto made for me and I couldn't cancel, could only rearrange and couriers were sending me cables etc. All of that was stressful for me and now it's happening again. So please can you stop this upgrade process, I will be in touch if I want to upgrade but not now.

Thank you.

Hi Crmp2024,

We can put notes on but unfortunately it doesn't guarantee that it wont happen again. All I can suggest is to let us know if it happens and we can get the FTTP order cancelled for you

Please only follow up on your own thread, @Crmp2024.

Posting on other customers' threads for help issues, especially when they haven't yet been resolved just muddles communication for the original poster.

Hi spider-man,

Could you just confirm the date of the installation in the text/email

Thanks

Hi Chris, looks like a appointment without my permission has been made for next month. Email and text was received earlier this afternoon, hopefully nothing turns up via courier like last time etc - all of this was added stress. Could you please cancel this and tell the team or whoever is doing this to stop further auto upgrades. There should be a simple "no I do not want to upgrade" option but no option like this. This was what my worry was in my previous post as no appointment had been made yet - just that they are upgrading me etc, which is why I had to double check with you.

Thanks.

Thanks again for helping 🙂

The appointment has been cancelled and no appointment will be made. If you do receive any further texts/emails about it just let us know and we can take a look.

Thanks for helping. Just to be sure, the upgrade text and email I received mentioning that in a few weeks a appointment will be sent - that is all stopped and no appointment will be made?
