Plusnet Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • D1Charlotte Charlotte (@D1Charlotte) reported

    @Plusnet no broadband for almost two weeks, you are not providing me with a service which I am paying you for. Your call centres are always closed or staff are super unhelpful

  • W1l04 W1l0_ (@W1l04) reported

    Another days loss of earnings because of @Plusnet incompetency to facilitate a simple change of address. Terrible customer service. @plusnethelp

  • LeeDaines3 Lee Daines (@LeeDaines3) reported

    Yes finally got through, seriously you need to reduce the amount of time it takes to get through to you. You have high speed broadband, but Plusnet customer service is streets ahead.

  • jencav_jennie Jennie cavanagh (@jencav_jennie) reported

    @Plusnet my Internet is not working and neither is my phone line

  • GordonAlderson The Boss (@GordonAlderson) reported

    @Plusnet why is your so-called @plusnethelp so inept? Why don't they reply to messages? Why is your online chat not working? Why should I have to call you? Why can't I email you? Am I right to expect a worthwhile response?

  • gore_nest we call this a difficulty tweak (@gore_nest) reported

    @Plusnet can you actually help me with my internet, I just got disconnect from a work meeting multiple times because it keeps ******* me and my partner over when we're trying to work. This has been non stop for months now

  • LesFreke les freke (@LesFreke) reported

    @Plusnet An hour waiting to get through to support, and you have the tagline on an advert " tired of poor customer service" . Well yes I am, and if I can get out of my contract I will.

  • dollielondon Dollie London (@dollielondon) reported

    @Plusnet I have no connection since Tuesday eve and can’t get through to customer support or online chat? I’m working from home and self isolating so please can you help. Thanks!

  • ManonRadge Manon Rädge (@ManonRadge) reported

    @GelertDesign @SimonCoopey Plusnet is owned by BT though. Never had a problem with Sky in the 20 odd years we've been with them. If looking for the fastest broadband, check what the providers are offering and their smallprint, ie up to x speed isn't a guarantee.

  • naomimilward41 Naomi Milward (@naomimilward41) reported

    @MatthewBeard14 @plusnethelp @Plusnet Hi Matthew, they wrongly cut off my mum/vulnerable person too who's been a loyal customer for yrs with a DD set up. They rang her mobile demanding £ she didn't owe, I thought it was fraud #stress Further billing errors, very poor service followed. I'm now in touch with #CEO level

  • Feisel86 GarboSpy (@Feisel86) reported

    @Plusnet 2nd day of no internet. What is going on? You post about aiding lockdown learning but not about fixing the issues that cause there to be no internet to do it.

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

    @Plusnet seem to want to lose customers. Service increasingly patchy, and all options other than phone for reporting issues (Twitter, online chat, web ticketing) closed down. 45 minutes to answer calls to the support desk. Rueing the day I switched.

  • simpster20 Mark Simpson (@simpster20) reported

    I Don't know why I ever went back to plusnet, nothing but trouble! Stay clear! @Plusnet #plusnet

  • LolaSunnybutter Lola Sunnybutter ❤️ (@LolaSunnybutter) reported

    @OpenreachHelp I am trying to work out why your engineer has said there was noone in when we were in and now I am yet again NOT getting internet Let's tick off providers that are unable to help customers @SkyUK and now let's add @Plusnet to the list

  • emmalou55 Emma Evans (@emmalou55) reported

    @Plusnet appalling service our internet is constantly dropping youve said you've fixed the problem but haven't. Constant issues with the phone line too. Working from home and he me schooling is challenging enough!!!!

  • JanetLeather janet leather (@JanetLeather) reported

    @paul_dananyeah @plusnethelp Also trying to contact tech support for days. Eventually got a response from plusnet via a Facebook private message. Their final response is to suggest we contact the tech support number we've been trying for days! 🙄

  • notlistenning1 Service (@notlistenning1) reported

    @garethjbaker So close all internet suppliers bar one? Madness Competition keeps prices down, we all pay and then those in need get supported internet supply. You believe all your told. Who is BT, Vodaphone , plusnet etc owned by? Which MP? You really believe your tweet dont you?

  • deansygrove dean sygrove (@deansygrove) reported

    @Plusnet many thanks for leaving my elderly parent with no phone or broadband during a “smooth transition” from sky to Plusnet during these challenging times this is all we need, absolutely disgraceful customer service😡

  • eXceedingUK eXceeding (@eXceedingUK) reported

    @plusnet claim: 'We're here to help whenever you need it' 'You’ll be backed up by experts' 'You’ll be backed up by experts' 'Switching is easy' None of the above is our experience of @plusnethelp @Plusnet !

  • JanetLeather janet leather (@JanetLeather) reported

    @MatthewBeard14 @plusnethelp @Plusnet I've had exactly the same issue with my Dad/vulnerable and shielding - no one answers technical support. I eventually got a response via a Facebook private message and their solution was for us to contact the phone number we've been trying for days! 🙄

  • _Marc_74 Marc (@_Marc_74) reported

    @Plusnet why is it so hard to log a ticket for issues?

  • JanetLeather janet leather (@JanetLeather) reported

    @dreww_xxxx @Plusnet I have been trying for days and no one answers. Eventually got a response from someone via a Facebook direct message...their eventual solution was for us to phone the number we've been trying and failing to get through to for days! 🙄

  • GraemeHatch Graeme Hatch (@GraemeHatch) reported

    @Plusnet Been on hold on your helpline for 20 mins and just seen on help page hours are 9-6pm. Not very helpful

  • 2GreenMonkeys Sarah @2GreenMonkeys (@2GreenMonkeys) reported

    @MartinSLewis is there a certain length of time in which a broadband provider @Plusnet doesn't fix the broadband (that they've admitted has a fault) I'm which they break the terms of the contract, meaning you can switch early without fees? Thanks

  • berniefenning John Bernard (@berniefenning) reported

    Tell @Plusnet we're cancelling our Broadband from 4th Feb. The next day our internet stops working and we get an error saying it's not been set up yet. Not had any problems until now. Coincidence? @plusnethelp we're in 2021. We don't have a landline to detect a tone 😟

  • MatthewBeard14 Matthew Beard (@MatthewBeard14) reported

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet #Plusnet You have now left a vulnerable person (my mum) without a way to be in touch with the outside world for 3 days. Each day I queue for 45 minutes in your system (twice), am promised a solution and nothing happens. Shame on you.

  • eXceedingUK eXceeding (@eXceedingUK) reported

    @plusnet claim: 'We're here to help whenever you need it' 'You’ll be backed up by experts' 'Switching is easy' ‘Leave the rest to us’ None of the above is our experience of @plusnethelp @Plusnet !

  • webberson Webby Webberson (@webberson) reported

    Still no reach out from @Plusnet what a crap service.

  • Salt14 Salt14 (@Salt14) reported

    @VogonLaundromat @SimonCoopey @plusnethelp We have same issue with Plusnet

  • eXceedingUK eXceeding (@eXceedingUK) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp Manager bluntly refuse to talk to the customer requesting escalation! Never calls back when promised! Making homeschooling and moving so much more stressful!
