Hello
I had an engineer booked to install necessary parts to upgrade to ultra broadband between 13.00 and 18.00. At 13.18 I received an email and text stating the engineer could not access, despite the back door being open and me being able to see directly out the front. No knock, no call, no attempt to access. On calling yourselves I was advised nothing that you could do beyond rebook for over 3 weeks time and that I would have to complain to openreach myself. On doing this I found it impossible as every option leads back to my provider having to do this. I realise the initial error is by openreach, but as my provider you are obliged to resolve my complaint with them seeming I have no recourse to do so. I was also prevented from having the credit on my account due to the inaccurate report by the engineer who did not show. Please advise on next steps as I have lost a day's work, as well as spent 2 further hours trying to get this resolved, unsuccessfully.
Thanks
Charlie

Hi, @CharlNash.
If you are still having issues, it may be better of calling sky customer services and mentioning that you have a missed engineer appointment and you can be compensated.

Hello
Am invite was opened for this subject, but was only given 48 hours to respond over Easter Weekend, when I obviously will check mails seldomly. The engineer finally arrived today, without trouble I note, but I still have not had it confirmed I will not be charged for having my original installation day wasted. In fact I'm owed a credit, which I was previously told couldn't be applied.
Thanks
Charlie
