Nearly there

With less than a week to get before getting FTTC, and with no communication so far from Plus.Net aside from the Welcome letter, it looks like things may be on track for connection on next Friday! Yey!

The modem will have to be sent out pretty promptly though if it's to arrive before the engineer does...

FTTC with plusnet....no thank you

Why's that then?

Why not check here?

If it does not show the router has been sent, just raise a question & it will be sent Tuesday. It's better really for peace of mind to get it now rather than after next Friday!

I did check there...

At the moment it says the (router) order hasn't been placed - I assume the line has to be setup first (as it's the proceeding requirement). However, the connection setting section does say that hardware dispatching is pending...

Something quite interesting though : The Welcome email says the switch over will happen on the 5th, but the Connection Settings section says the 6th - which is a Saturday.

I foresee stimulating times ahead...

We've seen a few such posts recently. The migration/activation has subsequently occurred on the scheduled switch-over date.

I think maybe the PN system is allowing for a switch-over as late as midnight, so gives the following day for activation.

As long as the Openworld engineer comes on the 5th, it should all work out fine. The only fly in the ointment could be the router not arriving on time

When I signed up with PlusNet, I didn't hear a thing...no Router ordered and Status was stuck at the line testing phase, it ended up there was a problem with the changeover caused by BT, so nothing has happened since...4 weeks and counting..

Phone them to find out what's going on.

Use the phone ? It's not the 20th century anymore

Don't worry, soon you will get an email and a text message saying that your router is on its way. Probably on Tuesday as normally gets there the following day. Mine was sent last Saturday and got it on Monday, I just wasn't at home. My install was on Wednesday 27th and enjoying the fibre at around 9.30am.
