I have used 3 separate cards, all of which are okay.

I've done the web chat, raised a complaint, I've done everything.

you can't believe it is so difficult to make a payment!!

Mines been on and off every day to the point I'm losing business. Time to cancel smarty on our devices and find new. Been OK up until now 

@DavidSib_374320  Just a 'heads up' here - Smarty do not offer business plans.

It's strange that my Internet only works through your app when I click the link to buy a phone? Works great but Amazon and eBay no connection.

Hi I'm a new customer and my port has been successful but I'm still not connected to smarty 

 

@NathanG_2518912  Check your account dashboard - if it shows your correct number, it should work.

Perhaps you need a network reset on the phone?

Still down in North East London and Essex. Only been with Smarty for 3 months but this is the 2nd time this happened. Will we be compensated? Wasn’t the first time and it is terribly inconvenient! 

@KeithMe_2368841  It isn't down everywhere (I still seem to have service). If you lose service for a day, technically you would only be entitled to a refund of the day's charge - for a £20 plan, that is about 65p

Thanks for your reply, however it is still down for me and the compensation is compensation no matter if it is only £.0.65. I’ve paid for a service I haven’t received. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@KeithMe_2368841  I'm not sure that it's reasonable to be expecting compensation instantly. Some customers seem to have had service without problem - how would the company work out who was affected that quickly?

Well you’re obviously a Smarty devotee, but this is the 2nd time in 3/4 months, I have spent a day+ without coverage. Not about the money it’s the principle. I’m sure they’d be able to identify me if I shortchanged them when paying my bill.😉

It’s incredibly inconvenient and I don’t believe I am being unreasonable. We’ll agree to disagree. I pay for a service I expect to receive it.

Hi I was in contact with a member of your chat team re this issue and seeing what compensation can be offered after the network came live again which wasn't before ten o clock last night so I was without a network on friday night and nearly all day on saturday so could someone please contact me regarding this thank you 

@Leezey This is the community forum, so no staff will contact you to discuss that. You will need a web chat....or wait and see if the company offer anything in the next few days. Maximum financial loss, based upon a £20 per month plan would be about £1.50.
