Hi cbarnos82,
I have sent your query to installtion team for follow up.
Regards
JayeshP9.
- No progress on installation (stage 2 since commencement)
- No update from TPG or confirmation that my correspondence (regarding proof of occupancy) has been recieved (sent over a week ago).
- No scheduled installation, no information about progress, next steps or update on progress.
A week ago I receieved this email:
Hi Chris,
For your installation, we were advised by NBN Co that there's an active NBN service from a different provider on your address.
NBN Co can only provide one NBN service per address.
To proceed, kindly fill out the details below to progress with NBN order.
*Please note that the NBN Arris Box will only work to the original location where it was installed by the NBN Technician.
If you have just moved in, kindly send the proof of address document to nbnpod@tpg.com.au. Reply to this email once done.
A Proof of Occupancy Document (POD), which must show the end user's name and full address, as a serviced address, and not just a mailing address.
Acceptable documents for a POD include:
- Current fixed utility bills (water, electricity or gas).
- A current insurance document, specific to the address (e.g. Business or Home & Contents)
- Certificate of Title of the land.
OR
- A signed Lease agreement.

Thank you

I responded by providing all the details and sent proof of occupancy details to the required email address. Despite sending sensitive documents I can't even be sure they were recieved as despite numerous follow-ups I haven't recieved any response.
I am not sure whether TPG is even recieving my correspondence. I have prepared a complaint to the the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman and am at the point where I wish to cancel my account with TPG and proceed to install with a new provider. Is there anybody at TPG who can please update me on what is happening with NBN Installation Status CID:5190730?
Hi cbarnos82,
I have already sent your query to service delivelry team for follow up why its delaying your installation. There is confict of service at your address even you can also check your address on nbn website by putting your new address which saying You are connected to the nbn™ broadband access network. I believe that you don't have connection at new address so i have also involved my manager for it.

Hi Jaesh,
The tool you have referred to indicates NBN availability. NBN is available at my presmises, the former occupant had an IINET NBN account.
IINET informed me that the last occupants account was disconnected at the end of APRIL. I have asked TPG to check for an update from TPGCO on the status of the line but nobody appears to have done that or if they have they have not informed me of the result.
So instead I provided two statutory declarations to provide proof of occupancy. These were sent on Sunday, to sdnbndpod@tpg.com.au (in response to their email).
I have not recieved any confirmation or response, I don't know if they recieved those documents.
The only time I get any response seems to be through this forum, this is one of the most frustrating consumer experiences of my life.
Hi David,
Thank you I appreciate that, if there is anything you need just let me know.
Chris.
Hi @cbarnos82
This has been escalated to our install officers for followup.
Someone should call you ASAP within 24-48hrs.
Thanks,
THIS IS THE RESPONSE -
Hi Chris,
We apologise for the inconvenience.
There's an active NBN service, the old tenant hasn't cancelled it yet.
NBN Co can only provide one service per address.
For us to request for a cancellation of the service to NBN Co, you need to provide a proof of occupancy document, but we haven't received it yet.
To proceed with the installation, please ask the landlord to ask the old tenant to cancel the NBN service or provide your proof of occupancy document.
