NBN connection but phone still not ported 2months later

[ABL]

As above.

I am still being billed for 2 services which I have been assured will be refunded but nevertheless 2 months is a long time and my patience is getting shorter.

When you say "shortly" is 9 days long enough to wait or should I wait a bit longer??

This has been attended and unfortunately you have not been informed of the progress. Exetel apologies for the inconvenience may have caused.

Provisioning team is still waiting for the confirmation on the porting from our supplier. However, they expect this to be completed by 24 to 48 hours and you will be emailed accordingly. Your ticket reference number 14167642.

I live in hope....

Why does Exetel say I am ready to go but phone not yet ported, very inconvenient.

I now have no phone at all.

Tech support tell me the copper has been decommissioned but my number is still not ported. Leaving me with no phone for my business. I am now in the queue to speak to provisioning.

Very unhappy with the service provided.

We are extremely sorry about the inconveniences caused to you. We will get the provisioning team to get back to you on this asap.

Finally the number is ported. I lost more than half a day of phone calls to my business which has a material financial cost but I also spent over 1 hour waiting for your tech support, then over 1 hr with provisioning then another 1 hr with tech support to get the phone working last Thursday.

I would now like my phone bills to be corrected.

I was told the billing would be corrected after paying for 2 services for nearly 3 months.

When is my account going to be credited? Can you give me an exact date you can do this, please.

ps: more than one of your staff members were offended by my language last Thursday and insisted it wasn't "their fault" that the phone wasn't ported. It is your fault when I use Exetel to provide a service and despite several months of phone calls, emails and promises on your forum you never met your own timelines. Exetel needs to take responsibility for failures at your end, you cannot blame your provider "NBN" for your failure to follow an open issue for a client.

Thank you for the service confirmation and glad to hear the good news on your VOIP service activation.

I have request the Provisioning team to arrange the necessary credits on your account and confirm you in an email, under the same reference number 14167642.

No confirmation email from your billing team spelling out how I have been credited for expenses incurred while waiting for you to port my number.

I have seen a singular credit for $39.99 which I assume is for one of the months where I had two services but no refund for the Exechat fee which was incurred due to the tardiness of the porting process.

There is no refund for any other months, once again you haven't delivered on your promise.

Is there anyone significantly more senior else I can speak to in your organisation? Your internal escalation process appears to be a way of brushing off your customers. Big telcos have made an artform of this kind of customer service why copy the worst parts of their behaviour?
