Order stuck in limbo!

[#1]

Hi folks, a bit of help would be very welcome. Today (8th Dec) is supposed to be my switch over day from PopTelecom

Phone line dead from first thing this morning and still is, broadband likewise. connected router, which is in 'orange' mode.

Worryingly, my order seems to be stuck on .

'ACTIVATING YOUR LINE - Broadband orders typically take a week to complete. Your broadband order should complete on 8th Dec Please note that this date can sometimes change. We'll let you know if this happen'.

any suggestions.... rather an issue as I have a 'Teams' Boardmeeting to chair tomorrow, which won't be possible without Boardband!

Cheers

Hi there Steve, sorry to see you've been without a line for a while, I've just checked on the order we placed to transfer your connection over to our network and it's been marked off as completed in the last 20 minutes. I've activated your account so it should be all good to go now. 

Please give it a try and let me know if you encounter any problems.

Same here! I placed my order on 11th November for a house move. Due to activate on the 2nd December and, somehow, my order was cancelled! Today was, according to the website, my completion day - still nothing. Not a great start for a new customer with three kids, I’m thinking I may have made a MASSIVE mistake moving to Plusnet…..

A warm welcome to the forums. I hope you're settled into your new home and everything will be ship shape for Christmas!!

Your description somewhat suggests that your order was delayed due to the previous occupant's supplier's actions on the line.

Delayed orders

There are a multitude of reasons why order processing might be reported as delayed and usually it is nothing to be too concerned about, but there are exceptions. The following are some of the common causes of orders being delayed...

• The user told their existing supplier that they are moving and the consequential action by their existing supplier will prevent any new ISP placing orders to take over the service - this needs affirmative action with the existing supplier
• The existing circuit to the property cannot be identified in BT Openreach's systems due to errors in their data - this can give rise to the need for special processes (ORDI and Bridge cases) with BTOR to correct THEIR data
• Something was not quite right with the order raised by Plusnet - these are usually sorted quickly
• BT Openreach do not have engineering resources available in the usual timeframe

All being well you'll find confirmation there that all is going to plan.
