Internet & Home phone bundle

About 2 May this year I requested my internet & home phone be ported back to TPG, as the provider I thought showed initiative, proved to be incompetent. The home phone was diverting to my mobile, even though we never requested this. Numerous calls to TPG to have this fixed proved fruitless, even though they indicated the internet & home phone were ported to them. About 2 weeks later it was discovered by accident, TPG did not have the home phone (even though it was being paid for in the bundle). WE then had to reapply to have the phone ported & in 2 days it arrived on my account. Immediately the call forwarding stopped and no calls could be made out. Since then I have spoken to various staff with no progress. Last Wednesday an employee said I would be called back that day, but I have received no calls up to and including today, Saturday. Today I spoke with someone else, who said I was being transferred to technical experts and that the call would be answered without any wait. 15 minutes later in a queue, I hung up. Finally it would appear that TPG is not the company it advertises to be, is plagued by incompetence and full of staff whose job it is to transfer calls and never follow up on whether the actions of that call, were effective.

Hi @dschardt59, the assigned officer has reached out to the previous provider to confirm the status of the homephone.

Hi @dschardt59 

 

In order to send the screenshot, you need to use a computer as the feature is not yet available on mobile.

 

Thank you.

Previously I advised it is correspondence in email and as such I need an email address for forwarding.

Cheers.
