Online renewal not activated

I processed an online renewal via the link sent to me on my email on 2 February, and received the order confirmation and Contract Information forms by email. I am now being shown on my package that this has not been applied, and I have transferred to a rolling 30 day account at twice the price. 

I am being told that it is 14 days to activate, however I will be charged double the price for the first month. Is there a customer complaints team available to discuss and confirm that my contract has been renewed correctly, and to dispute this extra charge that was not agreed or advertised? 

  • Hi Abblaw thanks for your post although we're sorry to hear of your concerns raised with the online renewal.

    It can take up to 14 days for online offers to be processed by our back office team, so please remain patient for this and apologies for any inconvenience caused.

    When it's processed, it'll be done so pro-rata so your next bill will be automatically calculated and any reductions applied to your future bill.

    Any issues after the 14 days please don't hesitate to let us know.

    Many thanks

      Unfortunately, I am having an extremely poor experience trying to renew my package with the correct inclusions, or indeed, at all.

      I have multiple chat transcipts that show how I have been trying to request various clarifications and amendments. None of which have led to a remedy as your customer services representatives do not understand or cannot access the account.

      Today I was on your chat from 3pm to 8.15pm. My complaint was finally being handled and we were about to finalise our contract when your customer services rep stated 'Thank you for your patience. We will have to close this chat as my shift has ended so you can continue the conversation via bot by selecting 'yes continue' and next agent will be available to help'. Your chat room had closed.

      My account is currently not showing the renewal and instead shows a cost that is twice the price of our contract. You have also removed several products (Netflix, TNT Sports and multi-room box), despite saying it is the equivalent contract. 

      On top of this you are refusing to apply our Blue Light Discount, despite your website stating that this is something you offer.

      This case can be remedied by:

      1. Ensuring that our bill does not rise whilst we remedy this problem.
      2. Ensuring our contract is the equivalent to our current contract with the price quoted (£68.54).
      3. Applying our blue light discount.
      4. Offering a gesture of good will to apologise for the multiple hours that we have wasted trying to remedy this issue.

      I look forward to your response.

        Hi Abblaw 👋 thanks for getting back to us. 

        Sorry to hear about your experience trying to get this sorted via webchat! At this stage we will need to offer some support via PM to take a closer look at the account and help get things sorted. I will ensure to include all these extra bits of information, including what you are looking for as a resolution in the complaint. 

        You can find my PM in your Inbox 📩 in the top right corner of the page. We can then return to this public thread with another update when possible. Thank you for your patience in the meantime! 🌞

  • This issue has not yet been resolved. I have had three days without response via private message, despite making progress in this method.
