    @Plusnet hi my broadband was due to be transferred to my new address and go live today but I’m having a lot of issues. First I had a text saying it was to be delayed and now I’ve had a text saying to send back the router bcoz I’m no longer with plus net?? Could somebody plz help

  • 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

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

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

    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.

  • Shaunmc40 Shaun Mc (@Shaunmc40) 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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. 😢

  • 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 🙄

  • 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!

  • 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...

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

    @Plusnet Hello Emily & Plusnet team, just to confirm that when I arrived back on Saturday eve & my phone connected to the network,it worked for calls for the first time. It is now working fine thanks. Problem & mystery solved. So issue was not having connected in UK b4 going abroad. Kiron

  • slater04 Catherine Slater (@slater04) reported

    @Plusnet what is going on!!! I have spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to change an engineer appointment and for some strange reason it seems to be impossible. Terrible customer service!

  • blackhairbub Mig (@blackhairbub) reported

    @Plusnet sent a DM and you ignore that too. Guess you aren't really doing customer service right now?

  • man_flowerpot Nige_Ragnarson🚴‍♂️🇩🇰 (@man_flowerpot) reported

    @avfcjackson @EE 4 in a family, £112 for a holiday. Just for your phones. @Plusnet seems to be the answer. Let's **** these roaming charges off by changing supplier. The market talks.

  • naked_techie Naked Techie 💻 (@naked_techie) reported

    I reported my internet download speed seemed slow at about 30 Mbps. Latest speed check shows about 48Mbps. Thank you @Plusnet for sorting it out. That'll do.

  • LesPerrry E-motion Media (@LesPerrry) reported

    @Plusnet have you ever considered training your work from home staff on how other departments operate so when they deal with a customer issue their actions do not cause a cascading waterfall effect of erros #notaskingforafriend

  • mark_sainty Mark Sainty (@mark_sainty) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I’m only getting 3G whilst in France. I’m never connecting to 4g. Please could you help. I’ve tried turning the phone off and on again twice but no joy.

  • darrylsherborne Darryl Sherborne (@darrylsherborne) reported

    Sorry @toobbroadband you've taken too long to design and install your service at our location. After paying @Plusnet £50/month for 18Mbps for too long I've switched to a @ThreeUK #5G Hub and get 172Mbps for £10/month

  • katebevan Kate Bevan 🇺🇦 (@katebevan) reported

    Hey @Plusnet please can I have my internet connection back? It's been down for half an hour in SW6

  • M6EQR Dan (@M6EQR) reported

    @naked_techie @Plusnet I've had endless problems with them. Had 12 engineers in 14 months trying to find the problem to be told 'there isn't a problem' yet my daily metrics went from 80mbps down to 36mbps over that time period. Ended up leaving mid-contract out of protest. F*ck em.

  • bluetonic78 Jennifer McCalman (@bluetonic78) reported

    @Plusnet I've just learned that you don't support texting to short codes. Is this something in the pipeline to support? I was unable to reply to an important message from Barclays today which led to this discovery
