£300 a month FOR WHAT. Dedicated line RUBBISH
The time is now 3.30am and I am writing to you as a distraught client after the ordeal I have been put through by BT tonight.
I raised a service issue with yourselves at 5pm yesterday. I had my team follow all the steps and they tried to have us back up and running, they spent hours doing this – however nothing worked. We have been having intermittent issues all day.
At 10pm, when I spoke to your team again, I was told that an engineer could come anytime, maybe around 1am, so I left my home to get to the shop so that I could be here for an engineers visit.
I then call on several occasions to get further guidance, and to asks for updates between the hours of 00:00 and now.
Only now to be told (at 3am!!!!) that it is a billing issue and it could only get resolved at 8am. With no warning to us, and no notes on our file to inform the team members that I spoke to.
NOW the billing issue is something I have addresses with yourselves on a number of occasions.
LET ME BE CLEAR - WE WANT TO PAY OUR BILL.
HOWEVER, there are charges on the bill that should not be there….
1. You have charged us for a phone line that we do not have
2. You have charged us for a service that was free of charge, as a “temporary solution” for the period covering the time that BT took to install the fiber line – this was subject to many many delays.
I wrote to you on 16/10/2023 10:14 with this information; I have also relayed this to your billing team over the phone – WE HAVE YET TO BE ISSUED WITH AN UPDATED BILL.
Having just logged into my account, the incorrect bill is the only bill I can see.
The BTNet team have reassured me that we can be up and running “within the hour”.
WE HAVE LOST ~£1000 worth of business because of this, and it was something so simple that should have been resolved ages ago.
THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS ARE NEEDED IMMEDIATELY:
1. WE NEED TO BE ISSUED WITH AN ACCURATE BILL – WE CAN SETTLE THIS IMMEDIATELY UPON RECEIPT.
2. WE NEED INTERNET REINSTATED IMMEDIATELY – I CANNOT HAVE OUR SERVICE DISRUPTED ANY FURTHER. WE OPEN AT 8AM.
I will ofcourse call at 8am. However, I am writing to you for the sake of documenting the events that have taken place over the last 24 hours.
