Sub: After Proximus fiber street work, I got sweage water leakage at my kelder. Still no action taken from Proximus.

 

Finally I fixed the issue with my insurance company, And now I’m checking proximus whether they accept this cause and NO RESPONSE.

April2024: My eMail reply to proximus person

Thanks for reaching me finally. 

Proximus did the street work during the first week of March.

We rarely used the Kelder, I noticed the leakage at the end of March and reported it via phone calls multiple times and the Proximus shop helped me to register this complaint. 

This is somewhat urgent. The leakage becomes worse and smells bad. Please do the needful at the earliest. 

For availability, Thursday 25 April would be easy for me. Please do the needful, thanks for your understanding.

 

Someone helped helped me to escalate this, and here is my reply email to him 16-May:


Subject: Re: waterschade aan de kelder na werken proximus
 
Greetings for the day!
 
But my situation is becoming worse. I have attached the latest images of the current situation. It makes a bad smell and fills over all the kelder. 
 
It has been set to high priority before two weeks. Kindly reach out to me and send some one to fix this by today PPPLLLLLSSSSS.
 
I literally don't know whom to approach to get this fixed at the earliest.
 
 
Regards,
Ram

 

And here is my email after the fix by insurance company 5-Jul:

 

No one turned from Proximus to look at the issue. 🙁

 

And now I fixed the issue via my house insurance. 

 

And now the thing is the franchise 250euros has to be paid, could you please take action on this? Since the leakage happened due to/after the Proximus street work for the fiber installation. 

Kindly please let me know if you can provide me some information to proceed.

 

 

And this is how you treat the urgent issues ? Between, someone told me to switch to fiber then the person will come and I ask this issue with him. When I asked for fiber they gave appointment after a week, but the person came next day to fix fiber. When I ask him about my leakage issue, He said its not his job another team :(  And my followup continued with proximus.

 

I'm unsure who this topic will reach out to but please help customers!!!

“they don’t respond quickly” I know this very well, even when I said the sewage(Toilet, shower, etc) water was leaking at my Kelder, they responded to me over the phone two weeks one different person. And still, no one visiter my house to look at the issue.

Now, the problem is fixed my question is about the franchise payment for fixing this issue. I can imagine how long I need to wait for their response.


@ramakrishnan.mani 

I put a copy of your message in your file for my colleague.

Tina


@tina.b This complaint is also lost?


@ramakrishnan.mani 

no, not at all, it is still open!

My colleague is looking for extra help to escalate.

@tina.b Good morning 🙂


Hello @ramakrishnan.mani complaints case 54345290 is still in treatment. The case owner is awaiting feedback from the contractor. Kind regards, Heidi


Let me see when this concludes and calculate your SLA for addressing issues like sewage water leaks.


@HeidiE Greetings! What is that meant “still in treatment”, can you provide some more info? 


@ramakrishnan.mani The case owner is still awaiting feedback from the contractor. You will be informed as soon as we receive more information.


@HeidiE Thanks!


You guys. understand what/why I posted here in this forum. 

 

This is the situation which I faced when I reported/complained with Proximus about “sewage leakage in the Kelder after proximus fiber work in the street”

 

Good that I didn’t trust this forum as well to fix the issue, I spent my money and fixed with the insuracne company and came here to check whether I can claim the expenses with Proximus.

 

OTHERWISE, I COULDN’T IMAGINE THE SEAGE WATER LEAKAGE IN THE KELDER AND WAITING FOR PROXIMUS RESPONSE FOR >7MONTHS

 

@HeidiE , is case owner still awaiting feedback from the contractor?


@ramakrishnan.mani 

we copied message and sent it to her for more info

Tina


Thanks for coping @tina.b 😀


@ramakrishnan.mani 

involved insurance got all info and should inform/help you.

They don’t provide us with info.

But I ll search for contactpersons and ask they contact you…

Tina


@tina.b Thanks for your attention to this matter.

As I mentioned earlier, I fixed the issue with my insurance company and they asked:

 * I need proof the connection between your damage and the Proximus working in the street

        - But with the pictures alone they didn’t accept it

They asked for proof Proximus has to accept their liability for the damage, and then this story begins and keeps on goingggg… I CAME HERE TO GET THE PROOF.

 

Thanks for your understanding. And if you need any clarification let me know. Please help at the earliest to close this ticket


@ramakrishnan.mani 

ok 

I ll try to push them to give info

Tina


@tina.b Three weeks before, one guy checked my house to see what had happened. Do you see any updates or input ??


@ramakrishnan.mani 

I asked them to inform you about results.

Hope they do it soon

kr,

Tina
