After having been with Freeserve for years, through it changing to Wanadoo, then we were on broadband with them, then they changed to Orange.
We have also had a big orange mobile contract for 2 phones for about 10 years.
I realized our broadband package hadnt changed in ages and we were probably paying over the odds at 27.99 per month, so I rung orange broadband and said i am thinking of changing to sky.com as it is cheaper.
He went through and changed my package to wireless and talk, unlimited downloads, 8 mb speed, and free calls 24/7 with a phone connected to the livebox. all for 17.99 so i took it.
Livebox arrived a month ago and i installed it and we are all up and running on broadband no probs. but no email to say what our new Talk number is, so i rung the support line, gave them the serial no, and mac no, of the livebox and they said theyd activate it.
FIVE calls and a month later, they still havent managed to activate it, they all say the same thing...... the serial no and mac no youve given us arent what we have here for you. i will pass it on to my escalation team and you should be on within 10 days. then nothing. i phone again and get the same replies.
Ive emailed yesterday, with very strong words that if they only exchange the livebox for another one then the serial no and mac no will match and we can start from scratch, but they say,, leave it with us!
I told them it is unacceptable as there is a solution but they wont do it.
where do i go from here??
