Ordered April, still waiting installation
I ordered new broadband back in April, i am still waiting for the openreach engineer to call out, it has been cancelled several times.
What is the hold up and why is it taking so long to get the works completed?
I now have to wait til August and more than likely it will get rescheduled again.
I am not happy at all, i changed as i needed my broadband bill lowered.
What are my options?

@Chantelc
You aren’t contacting Sky Customer Services here. This is predominantly a customer led discussion forum where Sky customers are available to help other customers.
What reason have Sky given you (probably passed to them from Openreach) for the delay?

Re: Ordered April, still waiting installation
Typically that kind of delay is where the new contract is going to be provisioned by underground FTTP but there isn't an optical connection or a usable duct to the address at the moment.
The results from the link which @cookiemonsteruk posted will verify this.
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2
