29 July 2015 - placed order for Plusnet Unlimited Fibre Extra Broadband/Phone as direct replacement for BT Infinity 2/Phone, paid £171
12 August Migration date - failed (without notice from Plusnet; BT phoned to say that the order had been cancelled)
13 August - Plusnet notification of engineer's visit (am 2 Sep)
2 September - No show by engineer (without notice)
4 September - Broadband access disabled (without notice)
5 September - Plusnet advise 'suppliers [Openreach] say there is external activity open on your order that needs to be closed'
9 September - Landline phone disabled (without notice); Plusnet issue instruction to restart phone service. Submitted a claim to Plusnet for compensation regarding loss of broadband.
10 September - Landline phone reconnected; Plusnet advise they have placed a "self-install order for your fibre broadband and, once it has reached a committed state, we will expedite for the first available appointment"
Having made a sizeable payment at the time of placing the order, I have been rewarded by a loss of broadband access and no scheduled date for recommencement of service. Using dialup, as an alternative, third-party online subscription services cannot be accessed or are effectively unusable ('connection was interrupted while the page was loading') - SpiderOak 100GB remote backup is currently useless.
All of the Plusnet personnel with whom I have spoken have been fine, and having read other messages posted here, some of the responsibility for the various delays appears to rest with other businesses operating under the BT corporate umbrella.
Dave.
PS I am accessing this forum via Freeola 56kb dialup and cannot reply to e-mail messages. To help trace internal records, it's Fibre order reference: 3-122331937000.

"... our suppliers have actually rejected our request to fast track your order as they say there is no delay on their part. As a result, we must now wait until 28th September for your services to be activated."
However, I was informed on Friday:
"... you are currently without a service as your current provider then stopped your phone line before we were able to issue another order to transfer your services so Plusnet cannot take full responsibility for a loss of service."

After the first migration failure (12 Aug), Plusnet support said:
"i am sorry to advise that the phone order rejected due to not matching with the broadband order. This was via our automated system ... We will place the order manually to ensure that this is placed correctly next time"
After the second migration failure (2 Sep), I was informed:
"your orders appear to have been rejected by our suppliers ... you will need to speak to our provisioning team directly on 0800 432 0200 to get your engineer appointment rearranged"

We've ordered self-install (BT HH3/5) Plusnet Unlimited Fibre Extra Broadband, up to 75Mb/19.5Mb, presumably needing no hardware changes ...
We previously had BT Infinity 2 broadband (75Mb/15Mb in practice with HH3). The phone wall socket/external wiring/modem/white wall box were replaced by BT in 2012 and I'm not of aware of any problems associated with the installation.
TIA.
Dave.

It looks like your order was built in as a self-install. As a result, internal access won't be needed. Hopefully we'll have you up and active by the afternoon.
