We are moving house later this month and it seems the people moving here put in a transfer request too early and instead of checking with Spark they just cut us off and gave it to another provider.
Spark is trying to get it fixed through Chorus but is basically waiting on them.
I tried calling Chorus direct and all they would do is say they are working on it but couldn't say when it would be fixed.
Anyone have a similar experience? How long before it got fixed it's 24 hours so far.

Back up and running now. The new owner's RSP unfortunately did not follow the correct process. They should have used the Connect & Replace process which would have sent a notification to Spark which they would have then had time to approve or reject..

 

However in this case, the new owner's RSP ran a transfer and after a few attempts they correctly guessed the name of the current RSP, meaning the transfer to the new owner went through the same day. I have raised this as a training issue with the RSP concerned as the transfer process should only be used when the existing customer is changing RSPs - it should not be used in a move of address/abandonment situation.
