Madasafish to Plusnet

Hi

I recently changed broadband/phone from madasafish to Plusnet (who are one and the same) because I was told by a company advisor that it would be cheaper with Plusnet (it's about the same but I now get unlimited usage)...I paid my bill for Madasafish last week and on joining Plusnet two days ago had to pay a month in advance...is this normal practice seeing it's the same company? just seems a bit odd paying twice in the same month

cheers

    If you are now in credit with the fish company, then ask them to refund you the unused amount you paid.
  • If I remember correctly - I changed from MAAF to PN a year ago and was refunded the exces amount paid to MAAF because of a billing date overlap.
    As Quentin says, give PN CS a reminder call or join the PN member forum and ask in "accounts and billing". One of the PN staff will pick it up and hopefully sort it out.
    I used the forum, it seems to achieve better and quicker results than 'phoning!
