I am a chronically ill 49 year old woman who lives alone. I had SkY Fibrebroadband fitted last Thursday afternoon and it isn't working correctly. OpenReach who fitted it didn't do it correctly but I can't get through to them or Sky. I wear as alarm around my neck and if I fall the carers come arouind to help. My landline isn't working, My Sky is only half working, I can't use On Demand, my landline isn't working My OpenReach keeps dropping, out. I don't think it was fitted properly. It isn't safe for me to be stuck like this. All four lights of my Hub are lit up but the Open Reach keeps flickering. I wish it could be sorted out this weekend but I'm very aware that, that's unlkely. to happen. I won't fiddle with the hubs in any way .because I wouldn't want to break anything. I know I still have my old Q hub here but untl That's fixed I can't get rid of it, if I end up having to pay some money I'll have to despite living on benefits. I can assure you that I won't have a happy Easter. this year, maybe the next one eh? Thanks forr reading, Can anyone halp me please?
