My activation date has passed and still no broadba...

My activation date was last Friday (25th October) and on Saturday morning (when mobing into a new flat I had ordered this to) Broadband had still not activated. I was also told during ordering that I could get the router delivered on the Friday and it wouldnt be a problem that no one would be home as it is "designed to fit through the letter box". I got there on move day to find a red ticket so I had to then queue at the post office after having been told specifically I wouldn't.
I called BT and after speaking to 4 people I was told that I had to speak to a 5th person in "Accounts" as it was an account related thing that BT had a technical problem with.
This lady then tells me that there was nothing I could do to help and that the braodband would start Monday midnight without fail and that she is sorry 100 times over and that she would email me details on how I could connect to Bt-Fon networks in the mean time...
Its Tuesday morning and we still have no internet and the order online still shows "in progress" instead of complete. Also never recieved this promised email.
What should I do?!!!
After all of the promises BT have made and not kept I am supremely disapointed!

Broadband activation date has passed and no broadb...

After my contract broadband with O2 was sold to Sky and sky jacked up the price. I decided to switch to BT broadband. The sign up was fairly straight forward and I was given an activation date January 20th, hub arrived same day and BT sports was turned on too. I plugged in hub on Tuesday morning and it went orange with a flashing red b. I left it till the evening just in case I was being impatient but still no blue light. I had a text message that same evening apologising for the delay and they will call me on Thursday 23rd and not to call as there was no need. That's in itself was frustrating, the lack of information and the disregard for customer care. There was no call on 23rd so I decided to call them and was told that there is an issue and that a specialist would be in touch and there was nothing they could do just wait for the call. Up to now I have had no further information and I'm just frustrated by the lack of information or renewed activation date it's making me regret changing providers. Can anyone enlighten me as to what's happening and where this fabled specialist is?

Broadband activation date has passed, and nothing....

Hi all,
So yesterday we had our new BT services in a property that we've just moved to. The OpenReach guy was actually early and after about an hour had the line up and running. Our equipment hadn't arrived so we couldn't test broadband but the phone line seems to be working fine.
Then our equipment arrived and we set it up but the blue B didn't glow. We thought this was fair enough as they do say up to midnight. Then at about 4 I received an email and text saying that the service was all ready to go. So we tried again but still the b light didn't glow.
So we called BT and didn't get much sense out of the advisor. She was flip flopping between different lengths of time based on my reaction - 24 hours, midnight tomorrow, etc. She settled on saying it would be up by midnight tonight (yesterday).
Needless to say, it didn't miraculously start working at midnight. It's now the morning after, and it still isn't working. Oh and the 24 hour support line closes at 9pm and reopens at 8am...
Any advice?
Thanks.

Co3 error activation date has passed

Hi all I'm having problems with vision everytime i reboot the box that was delivered yesterday i get the c03 error i tried calling call centre there usless keep saying i promise it will come on it takes time but my activation date has now pass im starting to wish i never left virgin now any ideas how i can watch tv

Hi,
1. A C03 error means your Vision account has not been set up correctly at BTs end.
2. A c02 error means the box tried to upgrade its software and failed. This 99% probably happened because of point 1.
Get the Mods on it. They are very helpful.

Phone line has been fitted a couple of days ago so should've been activated at any time up to midnight on the activation date. This has now passed but the order status is still in progress when I go to the track order page. The help page says that this means there's been a problem with my order.
Please help!!
Thanks

Activation date has passed, broadband is not activ...

Hi,
My activation date was yesterday. It has now passed and, somewhat unsurprisingly, my broadband has not been activated. On the BT ordertracking page, regarding the broadband it informs me "your broadband order is in hand with a member of our team....". Regarding the phone line it says "We are currently investigating your line order with our supplier....".
Has anyone had this problem before? What causes this problem? How long should it normally take from now to get connected? It says to call customer services if it is past activation date and BT don't get in touch (which they haven't so far), but I'd prefer not to have to spend an hour of my evening on hold.
Thanks,
Chris

Activation date: March 19th and still without broa...

Hiya,
I'm really fed up now. I placed an order for phone and broadband on March 10th. I received BT hub after couple days but I haven't got any confirmation about activation date at first. Then I was told both will be activated on March 17th.. On March 17th I called customer service and I was told there's a problem with my order, no wonder.. Until then I haven't even gotten a phone number.. Finally someone from customer service was able to tell me what my number was but I was told I must wait 48 hours to get it activated..
Next day I received an email with completely different number and activation date scheduled on March 19th.. This was just ridiculous! But I waited until then just to find out that they activated only phone. I keep calling customer service since then and every time I hear the same story: there's a problem with the exchange, they will activate it but I need to wait 48 hours! I'm not even talking about false promises that someone from technical team will get in touch with me!
I'm really fed up right now and so close to cancel whole thing! I've never experienced such a bad customer service and I've never been that ignored in my entire life!

Hello Joapoa welcome to thre Forum I wish it was in more positive circumstances.
This sounds like a really disapointing and frustrating experience. I appreciate you have said now that you have cancelled your order and could as we speak already be with another provider.
Should you wish to place an order again I would like to help. If not please accept my apologies for the experience you have had.
You can contact me at [email protected]

Apple said they sent an email for me to verify my account but never did. The 48 hrs has passed and still no email support. Any ideas?

I Bought an iTunes gift card, was able to redeem it online, but the next step for being able to purchase on the store website was for me to receive an email from Apple to "verify" my account. The email never arrived, and the 48 hrs has passed since I submitted my case to Apple. Very disappointed so far.

Who discarded the Apple ID? Apple? or You?
Did you answer the Security Questions? Is the backup email accurate? Have you tried contacting them?

Activation date passed and still no BB!!!!

I left my previous ISP due to poor service.....I somehow thought BT would be better but so far they have been utter rubbish, I am actually regretting my move from Tiscali/talk talk!! that says a lot as they have got to be the worst ISP's out! My latest problem now that my eagerly awaitied activation date has now passed 22.08.11 and I have no BB connection. I waited up till after midnight last night to check that the activation works and what do you know it didn't! (why don't you activate after midnight the night before your equipment is delivered so that your customers don't get there equipment and then still have to wait till after midnight for any BB) anyways I tried again this morning before work and still no connection...done all the tests i could prior to work and still nothing. This is really frustrating as you were late in delivering the equipment in the first place!! I NEED this sorted asap!! Can anyone point me in the right direction to get the quickest solution please???

Only show certain fields after a date has passed

How would I set a recordset to only show certain fields after
a date has
passed?
For example:
I have a list of classified adverts some which include an
image which the
client pays extra for. After a certain time period, say, 1
year,
would it be possible to use some kind of IF statement (or
something) to no
longer show the image?
Thanks
Gary

HT1689 since doing the 7.0.4 update i notice that my mobile data has doubled and i am running out of data mid month. I've disabled apps s not many running. Any suggestions?

since doing the 7.0.4 update i notice that my mobile data has doubled and i am running out of data mid month. I've disabled apps s not many running. Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue even with the newer 7.1. I have a 1-100 KB data push on both my husdand's and my phone every hour on the hour (i.e. my will be at :23 of the hour and his will be at :13 of the hour and it will change). This is whether we are on a WIFI and with all apps, background refreshes, push notifications, etc turned OFF.

Our website was set up 10 years ago with Macromedia Dreamweaver. Can I download up to date Adobe Dreamweaver and still access and make changes? I do not have the old software

Anyone can help answer this? Thank you,

Most web site files can be edited using a simple text editor. It is not clear to me what you are looking for when you ask if you can download up to date Adobe Dreamweaver and still access and make changes. You certainly can, but you need to purchase the software to do so if you mean you want the latest versions.
The most current version is available thru a subscription basis.
Creative Cloud Plans

You can always download a trial version which you can try for thirty days. Trial versions are fully functional.

Activation date just came, and went..

Hi all,
It's kind of ironic that I decided to come back to BT because I had had enough of Sky. Being increasingly disgruntled with the service that Sky was providing over the last year (I had both line rental and Broadband with them), I literally couldn't wait to leave and come back to BT. So, I signed up with BT on Jan 1st (Through Return to Donor). I wanted to take my phone number with me. I then phoned up Sky a couple of days later and cancelled. At this point, Sky put the cancellation date for January 13th, but my BT activation date was 17th Jan (I think her name was Emily at BT who told me that, and who advised me to get Sky not to cancel on that date, otherwise I would have to pay a connection charge).
I phoned Sky and got them to change the date (After a lot of pushing). BT changed the date to 21st January for activation and so the cancellation date with Sky was also January 21st. So here I am, expecting my Sky Line Rental and Broadband to stop today, and BT to provide the phone service (With me signing up for Broadband once I get paid at the end of the month). I phoned up multiple times prior to today to make sure that there were absolutely no problems. The guy I talked to yesterday said: "There are no problems, sir. Everything is going smoothly with the transfer." I was awake at 8am today, and around 9am, the broadband and phone stop working. Sitting there, I'm expecting the phone to start working sometime soon. 10am comes and goes. 1pm comes and goes. 5pm comes and goes. You get the picture. It's now 9.19pm and no service. But that's not what's irritating me. What's starting to annoy me is that BT have disconnected me on the agreed date as they told me to make in relation to Sky, but haven't reconnected me. And judging by other peoples' stories, that means I'll have to pay a connection charge when I'm not at fault and I did everything that I was asked to do. Also, I dread to think what will happen in relation to the phone number that I've had for a long time.
The phone number to call is 0800 800 150 if you're not connected by 8pm. Since that's long gone, I'll be phoning in the morning. What would you guys advise doing? Get out now? My father had the same problem - He phoned regularly to make sure there were no problems until the day itself, and still got blessed with no working phone line. It took him over 2 months to sort it out, and I'm at University so can't afford to take so long, nor do I have the money to correct problems where I'm not at fault. I'm actually thinking of cancelling the order - Is that possible? Even though I placed the order on Jan 1st, and activation was supposed to be today (21st Jan), no service is being provided.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Activation date passed and still no broadband

Hi Everyone,
I recently switched from Orange to BT as I was having an issue with my broadband that Orange were far from helpful about.
My equipment (HH4) and activation email arrived on 16th September to say everything was ready to go.
I followed the steps that came with the equipment, but the Hub light never returned to blue. It is stuck on orange and the broadband light is flashing red. I've been in contact with the BT support team for the last 3 days, but have just grown more frustrated. They advised me to wait until today to see if it would connect, so I did, but still no connection. They said they would book an engineer but when I rang back they wanted to do some extra tests, which are scheduled for this Friday.
If any moderators could help, anything would be appreciated. It's now been a month with no Broadband, and the support team are slowly driving me insane.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!

Line Setup date passed and still no BT Line

Hello,
On monday 9th the BT Openworld engineer arrived, he said that he couldn't setup up the line, as they would need a surveyor to visit. He said they'd be in touch within a day or two, however its now 5 days since then and I've not had any contact from BT Openworld. How do I about finding out when the surveyor can visit & how long it will take to set up the BT line. He said there should be enough pairs leading up to the property but he couldnt connect it.
If anyone from BT could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated, as I'd like to have a landline & internet set up as soon as possible - in a rural area with no landline, weak mobile signal & not internet is a bit like being no a deserted island!
