[Merged] Install nightmare, billing etc
 
I'm getting ntl 10mb installed tomorrow, and today i received my confirmation of direct debit. Thats all well and good... except i got TWO letters, each with different account numbers...

So i call the billing desk, got through to an Indian lady that i could barely understand or hear..... who told me that one of the accounts wasn't active, but she'd pass me through to customer services, to check.

So i speak to customer services, get through to what sounded like a 14yr old girl! Who promptly passed me over to the cancellations department, not even giving me a chance to reply!

Then i get through to cancellations, and was then told that "to have more than one account number is normal". To which i replied "yeah maybe so, but i've only signed up for broadband... no other services..."

Then there was silence, and i was put on hold for a further 10 mins, then he said "oh yes there was an error, 2 accounts were created, but i've cancelled one now" ........

GREAT START!

I'm suddenly not looking forward to my installation tomorrow as much as i was before :(

Ohh and I'll make a prediction now, that i wont get my £10 discount for ordering online, and ill have to make another phone call in a few weeks time...!

OK I AM NOW F***ING FUMING.

I just checked my phone, and i had several missed calls, and a txt, from the lady who called me from ntl after i placed the internet order.

Apparantly... YES RS100 & Rob C, you were 100% right!!!!!!!!

So there's a good chance that i wont have it installed tomorrow.

Jesus christ.... i haven't even had the service installed yet and im already extremely p***ed off.

Have you rang them to make sure?

Yes, i called her back, and she said that the order she put through for me, had been canceled. What i dont understand is, why the f**k am i getting calls from people, who are completing orders for me AS WELL as the order that i placed online....

Jesus christ i'm so angry right now.
