Thursday13-May3:50pmPhoned TPGAsked what was going on with appointment as I never agreed to nbn appointment on 14/05
Thursday13-May6:21pmText message receivedWe are not able to rechedule the appt as the tehcnician for tomorrow has already taken the job. Tech will try fix the connection. We will try to fix the connection outside if the tech is not able to fix ht connection we will try to rechedule the appt on your preferred date. please wait for updates

 

Above is just some of the text messages received and sent back to TPG. Unsure why you bother asking for a response when it is not even acknowledged. I clearly never responded YES to the first appointment date yet 'your appointment has been booked'. 

Now the next appointment for a NBN tech to come out is Monday 24/05. This is two weeks after first making a call to TPG. 

 

Also, sent an email on Thursday, 13 May 2021 to techops@tpg.com.au advising all the above and again, absolutely no acknowledgement of the email or concerns. 

 

I am really disappointed in the service provided and glad I am now out of my two year contract.
