No broadband installations

Options
So I had BT fibre until a few weeks back. I cancelled it as house sale fell through the new house only had virgin media. So now I tried to read BT, tried Sky virgin nobody can install it before 3 weeks. How can it take so long so I got a sooner appointment cancelled BT. This flagged up on utility warehouse system so they cancelled my appointment and put it back week. Anybody else had issues? I mean I actually had full working fibre broadband but they refuse to just send the router back out. Any ideas?

    If you are still looking at moving.
    Then go for a mobile broadband provider

    Your post doesn't make a lot of sense, but as above, if you want temporary broadband, go for mobile but check you have coverage at your property

    Also, you might want a shorter plan than 24 months if you still expect to move house. You can take the mobile broadband plan and device with you, but you don't know what coverage will be like at your new home ...

    Yes I selected £28 rolling 30 day plan that should cover me for the utility warehouse appointment
