TPG processes a request for “NBN Moving Home” and guess what they are moving the connection from where we are living to the same address!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They sent me an email saying they have received a request which was sent to them 4 months back. Which they had already processed it and we have been using TPG service for the last 4 months at the new residence. I responded to that email and indicated that I had not made any such requests recently. I was sent a new modem and charged 132$!!!!!!!!!!! And to our horror because of all these goof-ups by their staff our internet is disconnected and since last Friday. On chat, one team tosses us to another and another and the circle continues. After all these, we tried the phone and the cycle continues …. As we type this we are still on a call which has just clocked 2.5 hours on wait!!!!!!!!
Imagine our situation like most parts of the world we are working from home and my NBN doesn’t work!!! We had to but service from Telstra and use it which has limited internet on it and we will soon run out.
Please refer to this chat today (Masking personal details) just to support my point. Will share all other chat logs on social media and also write to ACCC
And they don’t even allow the chat transcript to be emailed to yourself (function exists, doesn’t work though) to cover up for the inefficiencies

account_boxRubyPlease give me time to check
faceKBNSure, Thanks
account_boxRubyIt appears that you did the relocation online
and it has been installed right away today
faceKBNNo Ruby
This is going to be lengthy
let me type it please bear with me
We were living ** till nov 2019.We were with TPG then. We moved to the new house we currently live in *** in Nov 2019 and we transferred our connection to this residence with TPG
We received a mail 2 weeks ago saying that we have made a request to change house, which we havent. I even email TPG about it
Received a new modem last week and our internet was disconnected on 27th Fri
The last agent i spoke to on Fri looked up our account and told us there was an error
the new address which is noted is the address we are currently living in from Nov 2019
So there is no way we could have moved into a house where we already live and TPG is the provider for us
Hope this helps
account_boxRubySorry but since this is post relocation I can transfer you to customer care
faceKBNYou are the 6 agent who is transferring this is testing my patience
never opt for a service which is not serviced in Australia
Thanks ..., i will take it to Customer court
