    @bt_uk Why settle for anyone else?? Because over the last 4 days I’ve tried to order a new BT service 3 times and each time it’s been cancelled by your system. So, think I’ll settle for someone else who has managed to set up and account and connect me in 24 hours. Kudos @Plusnet

  • coley43 NikNik (@coley43) reported

    @Plusnet When I am calling your customer service number or the number to advise for moving house, both are saying that the number is not recognised. Its not me dialling incorrectly as I am clicking on the link! I need to speak to someone earlier

  • antony_nomis Antony Nomis (@antony_nomis) reported

    @Plusnet been having a lot of connection issues since Friday. Voice/video calls drop out, ping skyrockets and upload speed drops to zero for an hour or two at a time.

  • frank10743117 frank (@frank10743117) reported

    @Plusnet my wifi has been down all day and I’ve been calling over and over and so far you’ve done nothing to help

  • eraseresk Euan Andrews (@eraseresk) reported

    @Plusnet Impossible to access my broadband account on your website. Been trying to log me in for ten minutes now. My internet signal is fine so what's the problem?

  • SmartGuyHarris Martin (@SmartGuyHarris) reported

    @Plusnet I'm getting quite a few spam texts. I've tried sending to the UK spam number, but it always fails 😒 Can you help me to report these? Thx

  • Shenarah Shenarah (@Shenarah) reported

    @LornaParry2 @Plusnet Same here in Exeter. In fact it has been awful for the past week on and off. Needs to get sorted out I may have to look elsewhere.

  • frank10743117 frank (@frank10743117) reported

    @bt_uk @Plusnet Your wifi is terrible and your support is worse

  • HeldnH Helen Hobbs (@HeldnH) reported

    @Plusnet I placed an order 11/5, it's says for checking line, there may be a potential problem. I'm worried, can you help please?

  • alice_kershberg Alice Kershberg (@alice_kershberg) reported

    @Plusnet There is still no working internet, I have just called customer service to tell me that the system says the issue was fixed, however the test he has run on the system says it is not. He advised I call back on Monday. I have never had 3 days on no internet with any other company

  • binderella1 Bindi Pandya (@binderella1) reported

    @Plusnet I intermittently experience a loud screeching noise when on a mobile call. I’ve replaced the phone twice which hasn’t helped. I’ve been advised it isn’t an issue with the phone but with the network. I have seen discussion threads from others saying the same. Please help.

  • frank10743117 frank (@frank10743117) reported

    @Plusnet Can you reply again but with the correct information as there are several errors with what’s you’ve said

  • ayley26 karen howlett (@ayley26) reported

    @Plusnet That's not what the paperwork said when it dropped through my door. It said if I wanted to cancel i wouldn't be charged, because you're increasing the price.

  • antony_nomis Antony Nomis (@antony_nomis) reported

    @Plusnet I’ve sent you a message - the issue is with total dropouts of Internet regardless of where the router or I am.

  • alice_kershberg Alice Kershberg (@alice_kershberg) reported

    @Plusnet This is unacceptable, I have only recently joined Plusnet 4 weeks ago and never had these sorts of issues with any other provider.

  • hmallettuk Hywel Mallett (@hmallettuk) reported

    Don’t like to call companies out in public, but @Plusnet and @EE are both providing a ****** service today. About 1 Mbps bandwidth combined between them, and for only £150 per month. 🤬

  • alice_kershberg Alice Kershberg (@alice_kershberg) reported

    @Plusnet Dear team, I have no internet since Friday evening. I was assured by your customer service team this was due to a major service outage in “my area”. Despite your website claiming all weekend there was good service. This was due to be resolved on Saturday at 4pm.

  • coley43 NikNik (@coley43) reported

    @Plusnet When I am calling your customer service number or the number to advise for moving house, both are saying that the number is not recognised. Its not me dialling incorrectly as I am clicking on the link! I need to speak to someone urgently!

  • hmallettuk Hywel Mallett (@hmallettuk) reported

    @Plusnet With respect, don’t bother trying to fix it via a Twitter conversation. I have a ticket open, and we’ll go through the same tedious rigmarole as every other time, and at the end you might reset a profile and we get back to “normal”, then some time later it’ll revert to 0.5 Mbps.

  • ShamashAlidina Mindfulness | Shamash Alidina (@ShamashAlidina) reported

    @virginmedia They said 'because it isn't active'. But I was told to cancel my @plusnet phone account this Thursday, so obviously it isn't active! Doesn't make any sense to me.

  • hmallettuk Hywel Mallett (@hmallettuk) reported

    The Plusnet service was 3.5 Mbps when we moved to the house 3 years ago, but it disconnected when it rained. So Openreach replaced lots of line but it still disconnects and speeds are slower, not faster.

  • MakerTheDJ MΛKΣЯ (@MakerTheDJ) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp when are existing customers who have paid you for years going to get the same advantage of renewing with you as a “new customer” #salessalessales

  • bun_ebooks moot_ebooks (@bun_ebooks) reported

  • gazzahz Gazzahz (@gazzahz) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp are you having any problems? My router has disconnect and started flashing orange almost 10 times in the last 3 hours!

  • rogue_porqupine Rogue Porqupine (@rogue_porqupine) reported

    @Plusnet my Internet has dropped 3 times in the last 20 mins, is there a way where I can get out of the contract early, iv got to be honest this is the worst service I have ever received

  • 2361c660d34f470 Archie Deans (@2361c660d34f470) reported

    @Plusnet I continue to have problems with my speed dropping as low was about 26mbps - I've already tried everything you suggested last time I was in touch
