Ordering 1.6GBPS

[Rbrace161]

Hi All, 

i am trying to order 1.6 Gbps line The order goes through ok at the beginningA ,

bit of the back story first, I have 2 ONTs at my property, one was EE 900, but has just been canceled, to try to reorder the 1.6 on this line

The other ONT is with Plusnet,

so EE is saying when they place the order, it doesn't give them the option to select which ONT to use, and every time they or myself order the service it all ways trys to take over the Plusnet ONT not the one that was with EE and now waiting for a service, has anyone had the problem or some one from EE can looking into this?

Perhaps you shouldn't have cancelled EE FF 900. Then you could've upgraded it to FF 1.6 Gig.

EE was the one who cancelled it as the system couldn't upgrade me, even though it is available, so they said this was the only way, but as above, every time an order is placed it tries to take over the Plusnet ONT and not the other one

Hi @Rbrace161,

Welcome to the Community!

I'm sorry to hear the team are having trouble locating the correct ONT to takeover. We don't have access to customer accounts here on the Community, so I'd recommend reaching back out to the team, and they should be able to get this raised to the right people to get this rectified.

Hi Rach,

every time i talk to someone they say they can't select the ONT or don't know how to. so last time i tried to order a complete new line and it's still trying to take over my Plusnet line so was hoping someone would be able to help guide me.

@Rbrace161  the ONT's will have a serial number on a sticker, depending on the make some are on the front, others on the rear. 

If you can get hold of the one on the EE circuit it should help CS get an order placed on that one. Might take a bit of patience finding the serial number, and some more finding a CS rep who can do the order.

As a last resort you could try adding a new fibre circuit, who knows someone may also work out there is a spare circuit to use before they lay another fibre.

Hi mustrum 

yes I have done this also. Think I just need to find someone that knows how to do it. Every EE guide I talk to doesn't seem to know how, will try and escalate it Tomorrow

@Rbrace161   I guess it will come down to your patience with CS before you consider another ISP who can offer 1.6Gb, or if an Altnet is available in your area.

Were it me if contingency was important a non BT Group ISP would be a consideration if an Altnet was not available,
