Recieved texts saying open reach were upgrading service in the area and they'd need to come in the property etc

 

They come and install new line in different area as old socket wasn't near a power outlet. Understandable.

 

They drilled through some furniture. (Not too bothered I'll fill it in, whatever)

 

The range on the router is now not as good in some areas of the house as its now in the corner whereas it used to be in the middle.

 

Been charged £30 that I didn't know about.

 

chat help is absolutely useless.

 

Not happy.

Morning,

 

Have you tried moving the router just to see if there any difference?

 

Thanks

@elcheastyo, post about the charge in the billing section in a new topic there.

Hi, thanks for the replies.

The router is right above my smart  gas meter could that be why?

No credit in the transaction history unfortunately.

Hi elcheastyo,

 

Is the router situated close to other wireless or electrical devices?

Check in Transaction History, in My Account,  @elcheastyo.

 

You may find a credit there for the set up fee / upgrade. It's usually charged in the invoice but cancelled out by them putting the credit in the account so that you are not out of pocket. 

 

It's probably because it has to show as billed for accounting purposes. Fingers crossed this is the case here!
