Sure Signal Suspended

Hi can someone please advise me as i am new to the eForum and Sure signal

I have brought a sure signal box serial no.21222717296 i registered it online ok but had difficulty setting it up, i spoke to a vodafone advisor and they said it had been suspended due to lack of use- i had only registered it the day before. They reactivated it on Saturday then i received an email @04:23 sunday morning to say it had been suspended again. I spent another 55 minutes on the phone to them again on sunday yet again it was reinstated.i was told to wait 6 hours but @23:43 on sunday night it was suspended again.

How am i supposed to get it to work if it keeps getting suspended. I really wish i had not upgraded my phone recently as i think i would of been better off looking round for a network with better signal as i can no longer use my phone indoors,

Thanks for any help

I hope this info helps as I am getting so frustrated not being able to set this up

Hi StephHarms,

 

Your IP address and other information is fine.

 

You haven't mentioned if the Sure Signal is new or second hand.

 

If it's new, please arrange a swap.

 

If you bought in a store, go back there. If you bought it online, or over the phone, call the team on 191 from a Vodafone, or call 03333 040 191 from any phone.

 

If it's second hand, I suggest contacting the seller about this.

 

Thanks,

 

Ian

 

 

Thank you for checking this out for me

The box was purchased secondhand so i will go back to the seller, Looks like im going to have to live with no signal and mobile at home.

Please can you arrange to deregister this box from my account

Hi Jenny, I purchased the sure signal box secondhand but activated it on to my account. I wish to have it removed from my account please As i said it was secondhand so it is not possible for the original purchaser to request it be removed Many Thanks
