Poor services and useless customer service
Unfortunately, I had issues with broadband from the start. I couldn’t use broadband at all in the house, In the end I was advised to get hubs which would cost my another £200 more . I don’t understand why I wasn’t getting the service. They tried to help but after 2 weeks of unsuccessful trying I end up switching to someone else. Yesterday I received the final bill which doesn’t make sense. So, I have to pay early termination fee of over £262 but why ?! Customer services explained that my cooling off period finished even before I got connected with them. It means I signed up with 2 weeks before my installation day and when I gone live – my cooling off period ended. Really ?! On the the live day – shell didn’t connected services correctly and I had to wait 4 days more for the engineer to arrive to check . List goes on! Anyway,
Now they are sending me a bill to pay for something I have never used. Which is completely wrong. I understand the person in Customer Services just following process but it’s completely ridiculous and very unfair. The customer services lady just kept apologising to me because she knew they are in the wrong but someone from higher management level didn’t authorise her to sort out my issue.
