Order delayed?

[#1]

I have received messages since 2 days saying my order has been delayed. Why has my order been delayed if I only ordered a couple of days back?

Thanks.

@divyeshv  Welcome to the Community forums.

There are many reasons why orders can be delayed. The most common is that rather than leave the transfor to Plusnet the new customer then cancels the service with their existing ISP. Can you log in to your Plusnet account and see if there's any tickets? Alternatively you can either ring in or wait until a Plusnet staffer comes along and picks this up.

Hiya @divyeshv, 

It looks like the postcode entered through the website, our order placing system did not like the format and rejected the order. 

I'm sorry about that, not to worry as we have fixed this and we should have a committed date in the next 48 hours

Hi @SammyM, thanks for the reply.
I had called up on 27th June and my post code was updated on the same day and was told I would get an activation date within 48 hours. It's been 72 hours now, but I still don't have an activation date. Is there some other issue as well?

Sorry to hear you've still had no updates @divyeshv 

I can see our Early Life team have raised a request to Openreach to look into this as there might be something wrong with the records on the line.

We raised the request yesterday so we should have a further update soon

Thanks for the update @MatthewWheeler.
How many days would this updating of records at Openreach take?
Also, since it's getting very delayed in solving this, could we expedite the activation date once this issue at Openreach is solved?

I'm afraid there are no updates just yet but hopefully, we should have one soon.

In terms of expediting the order I'm afraid as we're trying to take over an existing line, we won't be able to do this as these have to take a minimum of 10 working days to comply with Ofcom regulations

A new line was finally installed yesterday and my broadband is finally activated.
Thanks for all the help.
