TPG cancellation experience - 30 days notice

26/12/2021.
Changed from NBN FTTN to Home Wireless Broadband. I am being charged for NBN, my account is stil NBN FTTN, even though I have not used it since 26/11/2021. I sent required email to cancel NBN FTTN. And I can't understand how in December 2021 that a company like TPG can't make an easy account transfer possible. When I ring customer service it is too difficult for them to correct my current account details. What is so hard.
Cancel NBN FTTN.
Activate WIRELESS BROADBAND.
CHANGE DIRECT DEBIT from 59.99 down to 49.99.

Solved.

I am experiencing the same type of problem in DECEMBER 2021. Nothing has changed.

Hi @ianghutchinson

 

Welcome to the Community!

 

We were able to locate your account and reviewed the request.

It shows that it is now in progress. An Email confirmation has been sent since 21 December 2021.

 

Would you like to terminate your NBN service immediately?

My case also similiar.

It is very much painful to accept 30 days extra bill due to prolong notice period. It should be pro rata basis which is very much common in most of the first world countries. 
TPG should consider to review their policy; It may cause serious dent to their customer satisfaction. 
I am very much disappointed.

I'm experiencing the same issue. TPG just cut off my service today even if I'm paid until the end of the month (end of notice period). I'm very disappointed because I just paid for a service that I can't even access and I'm not even in a lock in contract.

My username is xxxxxx, I’m having the same issue. Please waive the 30 days charge as it brings no value. I have been with tpg since adsl, very long term customer, but recently with all the nbn maintenance, I couldn’t stand it anymore.

Same thing happened to me after signing onto More NBN (customer since 2011) to get the government flip to Fibre) which TPG doesn't offer. New connection was up & running same day.

Charged $74.99 for not being connected for next 30days.

Would have possibly returned at some point, but not after this & will no longer be recommending TPG after this which I usually do).

Ticket opened with ACCC.
