  • NeilSmithJones Neil Smith-Jones #FBPE 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@NeilSmithJones) reported

    @plusnethelp @plusnet Off the air again this morning, of course the service status page is all green...

  • BordenLucy Judith Lucy-Borden (@BordenLucy) reported

    Left @plusnet @plusnethelp 4/11/20, transferred to new ISP. They’re still taking payment from me - 3 so far - for a service they’re not providing. Contacting Plusnet is a nightmare so am glad I left after decades with them, just want my money back though!

  • Colsy18 Colin Ward (@Colsy18) reported

    @Plusnet How long will your online chat service be offline for please?

  • jonbradbury Jon Bradbury  (@jonbradbury) reported

    @highwaylass @Plusnet @plusnethelp 95% of the time it’s too many nearby routers all on the same channel. Change wifi channel at the router, or try disabling 2.4, or 5ghz, mine are all on the 5ghz, got a customer where have to set them all on the 2.4. Also some kit likes the 2.4 & 5ghz to have separate names

  • Hedgewise Kathryn Allen OUSA (@Hedgewise) reported

    So @Plusnet says on some pages of it's customer help that you can call them at 7.30 am... ring and the machine says 8.00 am

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @rhydsnewi @Plusnet @plusnethelp Sorry. There’s a 2,000 comment thread about it on the Plusnet forums, it’s clearly a system problem

  • BeatrixMcIntyre Beatrix McIntyre (@BeatrixMcIntyre) reported

    @Plusnet I was on hold for 37 minutes, and then you dropped my call. This is appalling customer service.

  • Ashleig35284200 Ashleigh Hill (@Ashleig35284200) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband is down, I tried phoning for a total of 4 hours yesterday and no answer. Can someone respond

  • recaro001 Rich (@recaro001) reported

    @plusnethelp I have had my plusnet broadband a few months and the wifi is constantly dropping out. The speed check I do on my laptop looks fine but I regularly have issues with teams freezing which is a new issue since I switched from sky

  • G_D_Hume Graham Hume (@G_D_Hume) reported

    @SQRLTV @virginmedia Unfortunately loyalty isn't rewarded with alot of these companies, in fact I found Plusnet one of the few that does reward customer Loyalty. You're best to pitch them against each other and go from deal to deal every 18 months.

  • SheffySheffield Simon Sheffield (@SheffySheffield) reported

    @Plusnet this is the worst internet provider I have ever had customer service is appalling.

  • BeatrixMcIntyre Beatrix McIntyre (@BeatrixMcIntyre) reported

    @Plusnet Does anyone ever answer your customer service number?

  • JustinDouglasUK Justin Douglas (@JustinDouglasUK) reported

    Help @plusnethelp please! I have been a customer for years: great service, fast call answering... but the past 3 days I am queueing over 45mins, & have to give up. Very worrying: my parents' plusnet home move service has failed: they are 75 & need to be on the phone. Please help!

  • hancoxrg Richard Hancox (@hancoxrg) reported

    @plusnethelp I do hope that each and every customer leaves plusnet behind. Appaling phone attitude when you can get through, rubbish broadband reliability, non existent email or complaints process and no refund for your shite service.

  • harrtab Sandy harrison (@harrtab) reported

    @plusnethelp Really unhappy at the deteriorating service from Plusnet. Zoom sound is terrible to others and our video flicks between colour and black and white. This is not what I signed up for. Please sort asap

  • hailsc16 Hayley Hammond (@hailsc16) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp Still trying to work from home with no internet, after being promised that my internet would be working yesterday. Usually taking 800+ calls from patients a day but when the calls constantly drop out I’m lucky to answer 100! Utterly terrible. Please help!!!

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @rhydsnewi @Plusnet @plusnethelp Yes. Didn’t help.

  • nouranzarroug Nouran (@nouranzarroug) reported

    @MattScratchley Yes, major problems in London, no broadband for 2 days!!! @plusnethelp @Plusnet

  • mcuk2014 Mike (@mcuk2014) reported

    @plusnethelp Awful customer service from Plusnet. Since placing my broadband order almost a week ago I have been passed from pillar to post and no one cares. My "go live" date has been delayed until at least 01st Feb and I have no broadband as I have just moved into a flat.

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @rhydsnewi @Plusnet @plusnethelp Also I pay 30 quid a month already, I can’t afford to shell out on top of that for hardware to make the service I pay for actually work.

  • SheffySheffield Simon Sheffield (@SheffySheffield) reported

    This is the worst internet and customer services I have ever had! #plusnet

  • rhydsnewi Rhydian Edwards (@rhydsnewi) reported

    @highwaylass @Plusnet @plusnethelp Have you tried changing the network names on your 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz network to be different? Also you can use any router on a Plusnet service so worst case you can buy a decent personal router

  • Hedgewise Kathryn Allen OUSA (@Hedgewise) reported

    I don't check my email as much... but I just had a thought, and saw the bill from @Plusnet and now I'll likely have trouble sleeping, because the broadband stuff I thought was sorted last month seems to be sorted... but now they're overcharging me two extra line rentals...

  • KatieClifford9 Katie (@KatieClifford9) reported

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet are hands down the crappest company to try and get hold of. Customer service appears non existent!!

  • philmo999 Philip Morrish (@philmo999) reported

    @XMightyRed @SQRLTV @virginmedia Funnily enough - only option was sky (and their shocking customer service) or BT (who of course own Plusnet). Virgin are not available (which seems like a good thing).

  • JanetLeather janet leather (@JanetLeather) reported

    @Plusnet is there anyone who is going to respond? my parents have been without internet for 2 days now. No one is answering the customer services phone number. How do they get assistance as there is nowhere to email for support either?

  • mcuk2014 Mike (@mcuk2014) reported

    @plusnethelp Awful customer service from Plusnet. Since placing my broadband order almost a week ago I have been passed from pillar to post and no one cares. My "go live" date keeps being pushed back and I have no broadband as I have just moved into a flat (rent). Poor service.

  • nouranzarroug Nouran (@nouranzarroug) reported

    @Ryan_the_BSCB @Plusnet Yes, major problems in London

  • BordenLucy Judith Lucy-Borden (@BordenLucy) reported

    @Plusnet Left plusnet 4/11/20, transferred to new ISP. You’re still taking payment from me - 3 so far - for a service you’re not providing. Contacting Plusnet is a nightmare, please DM me for details & to arrange refund. Thank you v much.

  • chrisedwards79 Christian Edwards (@chrisedwards79) reported

    Just to let people know - avoid @Plusnet at all costs. Terrible signal, bad customer service, false promises on internet deals. And there you go. @plusnethelp
