Hi @mc,

 

Thanks for sending us your details. I have confirmed that your given home phone number has been ported yesterday.

 

I advised one of our Technicians to try to call your home phone number and it goes through unfortunately no one answer.

 

Try to ring your home phone number again and let us know how it will go. Cheers!

Thank you for sending the information via PM @mc.

 

You are right. The home phone number shows active with the correct number which was successfully ported, however, it says on the account that the phone is not registered which is why it is not working.

 

I will notify our Engineering team who's handling your initial issue with the speed to check your home phone as well.

 

Your experience is important to us and we will be keeping a close eye on your matter and will provide you with updates where possible.

 

Kind regards,

Thank you. My home phone is now working with my old number now ported. Now just have to wait to see if I can get better than 11mbps download speed and 2mbps upload on the NBN50 plan. What else can go wrong? Have been advised a NBN tech has been booked to check speeds any time from now until 18.7.18. Thanks for your help TPG Community. Will let you know how that goes.

Hi

To add to my long list of problems with my TPG NBN installation I requested a number port for my home phone. Unfortunately Telstra refused to release it.

That was resolved last week after my complaint was handled and Telstra has advised it was released to TPG then

However it is still not working and my emails to your porting team go unanswered

Maybe I’m being impatient but it’s a month and a half without a working home phone (even though I’m being charged for it)

Hi @gmtoz,

 

We can see that you have been in contact with one of our Complaints Resolution Case Manager handling your case and advised that TPG unable to port the service phone number you requested because the number is currently not active. Due to this, we advised you to contact Telstra to release the service phone number from quarantine and reactivate.

Let us know once the number is released from quarantine and reactivated to initiate the porting request.

Hi
If you read my post I finally got Telstra to reconnect and they have advised they have released the number

I advised your team of this by email on phone no less than 4 times. Unfortunately no reply and no action
