Speed Boost Reversed
 
Yesterday I spoke to retentions and agreed a new deal for the coming year. I was on the big easy bundle and my broadband speed was upgraded to 70mb a year or more ago as part of the free speed upgrade. I'm now showing as on the M+ bundle, however my speed has reduced to 50mb.

I phoned retentions again this morning and they have told me that there is no longer a free upgrade and I am only on 50mb.

Is this right? I feel cheated!.

They don't do 70, only 50/100/200, so they wont put you on a speed that they don't provide anymore.

Sadly any change to a package reverts it to the normal tiers with no way to change it back. It's been that way since they first announced them, i changed my package back before my area got the upgrade which then made me ineligible for it.

No, you have 14 days to revert back to your previous services, including 70Mb.

unfortunately you have been caught out like many others recently. Rather than giving you a genuine discount or applying a credit to your account, they make it appear like you are saving money by changing your package down a tier which appears to be what has happened here.

I've sent an email to the CEO with a reply saying they are looking into it. Hopefully this will get some sort of resolution.
