Re: Sky engineer misses 3 appointments
@madmom What is you current connection type and the speed package that you have from sky, an OR Engineer may just not be able to work an miracles to up speed especially if you have a copper OR Master socket connection, streaming in HD etc requires such, and have linked that info below for you to look at, the black hole is full of Engineers they are all busy, sounds like you should have got a sky Engineer as the first step on the ladder!

Re: Sky engineer misses 3 appointments
@madmom Fibre installation then for you, unknown who is going to be doing that, ie OR Openreach or CF CityFibre all depends on what is available and to be done, even if Fibre is available to you at all, the sky Fibre checker can say what, and the BTW also so have linked them both below, but if you have both available the sky Preference and bias may be towards CF and that is for sky/CF to decide....

Re: Sky engineer misses 3 appointments
@madmom given Ofcom require £31.19 for each missed appointment you should be slightly ahead. Delays on the switch to fibre are not that unusual as Openreach have mutiple tasks first not all of which go to plan.

- We change or cancel your visit date with less than 24 hours' notice.
- We change or cancel the visit date with more than 24 hours' notice.
- You change or cancel your visit on the day.
- You don’t let the engineer have access to fix the issue or a health and safety issue prevents their access.

Re: Sky engineer misses 3 appointments
@madmom It's the getting it that becomes the fun part, just think off it as the purse strings are closed, sky don't like giving it in the slightest and the CS who has organised visit's which sounds like that was a complete C/UP to start with may be getting a serious slapping!
3 Months off Free internet credited to the account, good luck with that so to speak!🙄👍
