Broadband not activated

[Welshlady1948]

I ordered broadband on 23/7/24 , notified of activation date 15/8/24

- no broadband activated on this date 

- no hub

- no messages 

I called Sky on 15/8/24 to enquire, all he asked for was tracking number which I have not been given, he didn't seem interested. 
is it possible to speak to a uk Sky customer service person as I do not always understand accents ( my fault not theirs) !

@Welshlady1948  Is there any information in track orders in my account about your router activation?

[Welshlady1948]

It just shows this !

@Welshlady1948 I have escalated your post to Sky who may be in touch with you regarding this via a private message on this forum or an email to you, both of which will invite you to a private chat.

More information about this process can be found in the link below.

Thank you for escalation. 
1. chat with Sky UK , they couldn't help -  t/no for activation dept. 
2. Phoned Activation, spoke with lady , she'll look at my account - she's puzzled by lack of response , she'll call back in 20 mins - she didn't. 
3. phoned back after waiting 2hrs

4. phoned again to Jamie,  the lady had escalated it to Order Recovery Dept but Bot didn't pick it up ! She didn't call me either. 
anyway Jamie gave me a number to call. 
5. spoke to Victor, who delved into the grey mists of lost orders , apparently my order is a Ghost Order which has to be cancelled then wait 2-3 working days for it to go off the system and I will have to re- order broadband  !!!!!!

now I've got some thinking to do, it's not good enough for a pensioner to deal with this. 
Do I give up & stay with BT or carry on, i probably won't even get any compensation as it's ghost order ??? 

I would like to complain but don't know who to ? 
I'll have to google what to do.
