    @Plusnet We have 3 xBoxs, all working fine until about a week ago, they all report they can't get online, allowing other apps show them as being online. Something about double NAT in one settings- help!

    @Plusnet hi, I have a question about my renewal deals. Can you help please?

  • b34n3gg Sean 🔴⚪ (@b34n3gg) reported

    @Plusnet funnily enough as an existing customer this is considered a perk. Like you're doing me a favour at this price 😡

  • Mark_J69 MarkJ (@Mark_J69) reported

    @Plusnet @noisecandyman Can you advise if this issue is still outstanding? I have not been able to access my emails for 2 weeks now

  • noneedhomes Andy (@noneedhomes) reported

    @Plusnet i have router 2 but it is not allowing me to name each ghz which causes issues to a firestick outside, its set to 2.4ghz which makes it slower, but the cameras need to be on 2.4 ghz so i cant turn 2.4 ghz off

  • MarkHowitt GM Mark Howitt (@MarkHowitt) reported

    @Plusnet Just now • Visible to anyone on or off @LinkedIn @bt_uk no communication or sign they would pay me what they owe me today. Poor. One of the people I spoke to could barely even speak let alone should be allowed on the phone in a pro manner. Might upload that video to Youtube.

  • voiceproject Voice Project Choir (@voiceproject) reported

    Call me old-fashioned (I’m certainly old) but when your email and broadband service provider doesn’t respond for days of email outage, one might be inclined to think it somewhat rude, particularly having been a customer for THIRTY-TWO years. So, @Plusnet get your act together

  • robmcd85 Rob McDowall AMRSPH FRSA (@robmcd85) reported

  • nw_nicholas Mr Ethical (@nw_nicholas) reported

    I’ve calculated I’m owed about £90 automatic compensation from @Plusnet so far. I phoned to cancel my contract and they say there will be early termination charges. Hahahahahaha! **** off.

    @Plusnet piss poor currently, i need stable. Dropping at low demand times is not good, dropping at all is not good. Please sort it out. ( From my phone btw!

  • sissell_black Sarah J Black (@sissell_black) reported

    @Plusnet I need you to contact me. Was messaging you earlier about my elderly mothers’ phone not being able to make outgoing calls. Was told at lunchtime someone would phone… still waiting… is this how you treat your vulnerable customers? Not good enough. #CustomerServiceFail
