Compensation

[TomH1]

I have been without broadband for 27 days. This also means no Amazon or Netflix although paid for. Engineers did not turn up on 2 occassions. BT saying I am due no compensation. Surely this is not right.

Welcome to this user forum for BT Retail phone and broadband customers.

See https://www.bt.com/help/account-and-billing/automatic-compensation

Its automatic once the fault is fixed, and is paid as a credit towards future bills.

Hi @TomH1, has the fault been fixed? If so then then compensation would be applied automatically as in the link @Keith_Beddoe has posted above.

Cheers

It has been fixed today. Although BT still maintain I am due nothing. Every second day they say the fault has been fixed although it hasn't. I think this is so they can avoid compensation

Hi @TomH1, glad you're back in service. If the automatic compensation isn't applied or correct then check out: What if I want to query the compensation amount I've received?

You would need to wait until 30 days after the fault has been cleared before querying the amount.

Was it an area affecting fault? If Openreach say it’s out of their control then compensation doesn’t apply.

Thanks for your help
