Taken out broadband, but the Openreach engineer has not turned up - what do I do

The Openreach engineer has not turned up

 

Went on the chatbot which gives a phone number or this community webpage which contains similar complaints but no answers.

 

My order remains in limbo as it says 'in progress, engineer visit,' but the date is yesterday. 

 

Why has nobody contacted me from Sky who must be the first point of contact

@Peter455099  No one from Sky will be able to contact you from this forum post. If the engineer failed to turn up, then make contact with Sky to find out why and they can then set a new date. You should get something in credit for the engineer not turning up.

If someone has helped give them Like.

If you have found this solution helpful please tick this as the answer.
