  • Ed_Manning Ed Manning (@Ed_Manning) reported from Birkenhead, England

    As for @Ofcom I suggest the home move process is reviewed and special attention is paid to the relationship between the network operators and the retailers. Perhaps other providers such as @BTCare and @TalkTalk and @Plusnet could tell me whether they could do any better. 14/END

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Mmm. 2 days loss of service in a week. Not good. Maybe I'll speak to that nice chappie in Sheffield at PlusNet or maybe get BT Sports for free with BT Think you can do better tbh Voda do a cheap deal too...

  • Paul_crannee Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @Plusnet I need to contact someone on behalf of an elderly family member whose router has stopped working, completely! No email and currently no live chat to help resolve. Please advise asap, thanks. DM me if necessary, thanks.

  • bricklandsfish Bricklands Fish, Seafood and Game (@bricklandsfish) reported from Chester, England

    @SteveTomlinson4 Ohh read you have to phone them to cancel.. just can’t switch. Anyway all sorted.. took 2 min online to switch to Plusnet. £96 a year saved

  • mrcflknr Marc Faulkner (@mrcflknr) reported from St Helens, England

    @Plusnet Very disappointed by the attitude of one of your agents when calling today with my Mum to change her payment details. She’s partially sighted and needs my assistance with reading details, yet this wasn’t acceptable and the woman was incredibly rude. 😢

  • ChrisBr41449425 Chris. Bracken (@ChrisBr41449425) reported from Warrington, England

    @plusnet @plusnethelp You've left my elderly, shielding parents without a phone line for 48hrs now, and nothing is being done. I sat for 45mins on hold this morning to call you, and couldn't get through. At this stressful time, this isn't good enough! Any chance of a solution?

  • punchymcslap Punchy McSlap ✍️ Drawn to Procrastination (@punchymcslap) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @Plusnet 24hrs without internet now, any sign of a fix?

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @craigr98_2016 @shornnno @Bigdav333 @LederRaptor @SkyUK Down detector is a website that gives you a rough idea about outage issues etc. So can be useful as a way to see recent issues but all I can say is bt own plusnet ...

    @Plusnet Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit, Jody got married I should've known we'd never get far #StartTheSummer

  • LisaWeeks9381 Lisa W (weird mum of 2) 💪💖 (@LisaWeeks9381) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @jolliehaybowes @Plusnet Cancel the direct debit. "I'm sorry plusnet, my account seems to be working fine."

  • ukpayrollserv Duane James (@ukpayrollserv) reported from Frodsham, England

    Over the past 10 days we are experiencing at least one incident per day of the router losing connection ..generally comes back on after about 2 minutes but have never had this before @Plusnet

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    PHONE LINE DOWN Please bear with us. Our @Plusnet phone line has gone down. Divert will take at least an hour to be activated. Feel free to message us on here. Apologies, we are looking for a more reliable supplier as we speak.

  • weloveourboat Aroundtheworldandback (@weloveourboat) reported from Chester, England

    @plusnethelp your customer service live chat and phone number is not very helpful. Do I automatically get a new router if I join Plusnet broadband and phone package? Simple question. Can’t get an answer!

  • SarahDixonHE Sarah Dixon (@SarahDixonHE) reported from Liverpool, England

    Best internet provider? Currently with @Plusnet and they are absolutely terrible. Can’t connect phones to the WiFi and the signal goes about 1m in the house and what you can get is slow as anything 🙄

  • sam_benne Sam Bennett (@sam_benne) reported from Northwich, England

    @plusnet internet is down in the CW8 area.

  • KironReid Kiron Reid (@KironReid) reported from Liverpool, England

    8 yrs with @sky no problems one month with @Plusnet billing issues. If you are thinking of switching to them give it a miss.

    @SpongebobKnackp Thank you! 🙏 My sis has Plusnet (think they're owned by BT?) and has slow BB speed.

  • gibbie46 Gibbie55 (@gibbie46) reported

    @Plusnet Not really an adequate solution for what you have admitted is your mistake. 4g coverage is patchy and does not provide the bandwidth I require, as a result I will now have to travel to one of our offices a 5hr round trip daily. Anyone reading this DO NOT sign up to Plusnet.

  • dijay1 David Jackson🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@dijay1) reported

    @Plusnet I’ve just worked out that £22.50 plus 5.4% is £23.71 not £ 24.59. I had very slow unworkable Broadband over a few days recently and was sent the old style router to try and correct the problem. No compensation. I have to now consider one of your competitors.

  • JWM861 MCKE4N86 (@JWM861) reported

    @crhein272 @Plusnet If you've only just signed up with plusnet get outta that contract if you're still within your cancellation date. Internet is piss poor, the past few weeks the signal has been absolutely awful. Constantly dropping and slow as ****. I'm gone once this contracts up with them.

  • Chee5e Natalie (@Chee5e) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi William, still no internet 😕 we have another engineer coming out Monday but I don’t know if this will help. I think the line is stuck between Sky & Plusnet & we are on day 18 of no internet.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @KireeP24 Hi there, I'm really sorry about the disconnection yesterday. I've just been running some line tests and we're not seeing signs of any issues and the router has been back on since, please do get back to us though if threre's any more problems. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • EvelynWilcock Evelyn Wilcock (@EvelynWilcock) reported

    @Plusnet Thank you for checking for us. We tried changing to Netflix and it was eventually fine which suggests the problem was not with Plus net but was possiby the BBC i player which had already required a new sign in from our other TV. We have a tv licence.

  • camelsbestmate Will Gordon (@camelsbestmate) reported from Thorner, England

    @Plusnet unaware that my broadband deal had ended. You emailed me, told me and highlighted the best deal available. Two clicks and signed up. The first time in over a decade I have not used a switching service. At this rate you are in trouble of gaining a customer for life.

  • Chee5e Natalie (@Chee5e) reported

    @Plusnet customer service has really gone down hill since the last time we were with them. Never again #avoid

  • EvelynWilcock Evelyn Wilcock (@EvelynWilcock) reported

    @Plusnet Thank you for your reply and for testing. We ran a sort of test viewing Netflix and that was fine so we watched that with no problem. So we came to the conclusion it was BBC i-player site that might be the problem. We will keep you posted.
