    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.

  • 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...

  • 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 🙄

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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."

  • 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

    The @Plusnet service line just made me lose Whamagaddon. Why would you do that?!

  • unogemini Jabber 👉🏻💥 (@unogemini) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, are there any outage reports in the Wandsworth (SW11) area? Our Internet has cut out 3 times in the last hour now.. Thanks.

  • TredegarAnn Ann Fleming (@TredegarAnn) reported

    @plusnet you say you provide excellent customer service yet none of your phone lines are open, there is no online chat and you have not responded to the tweet I sent. I’d call that poor.

  • PaulSt198one Paul (@PaulSt198one) reported

    Hi @Plusnet ,I've been waiting in the phone queue for over 30mins now and have given up. I need help with an upgrade happening this Thursday, I have some concerns and questions that need answering. Please get back to me, thanks.

  • goodall_charlie Charlie Goodall (@goodall_charlie) reported

    @Plusnet our electric was turned off due to grid work. Since it’s been back on our internet doesn’t work properly - have tried to contact plusnet - at least if you don’t respond to queries, you can’t be criticised for poor service.

  • Michell16567318 Michelle Atkinson (@Michell16567318) reported

    @bt_uk absolute disgrace. About to move to you on 10/12 for a full fibre line for business but you’ve told plusnet to cease service 6/12. So no service for 5 days and I’m a business customer. 2 hours wasted and manager will call in 48 hours - how as won’t have a service?

  • iamgoldunicorn Claire (@iamgoldunicorn) reported

    @Plusnet no mobile network available since Friday. Can you help please? I've sent you a PM but had no answer.

  • _Spinflight_ Mike Chaffin (@_Spinflight_) reported

    @Plusnet Plusnet reminds me of marrying a feminist.. A mistake I'll only ever make once. Your broadband is crap.

  • Danjk1984 Dan (@Danjk1984) reported

    @Plusnet hello, I sent you a DM over the weekend, could someone please help me?

  • cornish_poet Jo Hoskin (@cornish_poet) reported
