Now tv still no boost

[Staciejeffrey]

Decided to add now back to my package hoping this problem had been fixed ...we signed up to a product that says watch in HD without adverts and there is no HD boost active ...and I can see a lot of peope are in the sane boat..and all that I see that is happening is let's take it off and put it back on ...same story still no boost ...when will this be fixed ?

[Staciejeffrey]

Okay thanks karl ..fingers crossed

Hi

Sorry, I did not explain very well, I've got your details here, what I mean is, our team has asked me to pass over your account number etc, so they can get this picked up 🙂

They can then add this manually as it may not have been on their initial list while the free trial was in place, but they will check and make sure.

So I'm monitoring my chats with the wider team for any more updates.

Karl.

[Karl-TalkTalk]

Hi @Staciejeffrey 

One of the team has reached out to me requesting your account details so they can pick this up for you.

Regards,

Karl.

Hi

No Problem 🙂, there are more that need correcting but our Teams are working through these.

Thanks  

Karl.

Not sure if my earlier response got into this thread but I tried it this morning and it seems to be working and is showing up on my

Membership to NOW as having the boost too. 
thanks to @Karl-TalkTalk 

Really appreciate your help. 

[Staciejeffrey]

I'll just keep checking then 

[Karl-TalkTalk]

Hi

I agree, and our team are working through these cases to add the boost manually.

Karl.

[Staciejeffrey]

No timescale then ? ...talktalk advertise it as in HD and no adverts with the boost ...we are not getting what we signed up for 

[Karl-TalkTalk]

Hi

Not as yet. They are proactively fixing these manually, but have not identified the root cause.  they are still investigating why this failed to add, or why the orders failed to this can be prevented going forward.

Thanks  

Karl. 

[Staciejeffrey]

Do they let you know when they have done it ? 

[Karl-TalkTalk]

Hi

OK, I'll take this back to our teams.  they may not have been able to add this while the free trial was in effect.

Karl.

[Staciejeffrey]

Hi karl ...cancelled my free trial .now says purchase for 6 pound 

[Karl-TalkTalk]

Hi @Staciejeffrey 

Have you tested to see if the HD boost is working for you ?

Thanks  

Karl. 

[Gliwmaeden2]

You need to pay Talktalk for the TV charge to add other boosts, I understand, @deanshaw. I hope others can correct me if I'm wrong, @fr8ys, @ferguson ....?

You have an old thread here, that you could follow up, @deanshaw.

@Karl-TalkTalk went into some detail there:

[deanshaw]

Apologies for joining this thread but I have had similar problems but I am using an EE receiver where the boost does not work. The reason being I wanted a receiver that would record. I solved it by paying for the boost direct with NOW although I don’t really see why it shouldn’t work from TT. Does it have anything to do with me not paying the £4.99 for TalkTalk TV. Also can you reassure me that you will be able to get the boost working so I can cancel my payment to NOW?
Thanks.
