@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?

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

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

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.

@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!

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 🙄

@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 ...

@WubbzWubbz @petepaphides I'm using Firefox - it's not the browser. The problem is @Plusnet, I've had this issue before. If their servers flag a site as not secure, it'll be blocked until the owner of the website contacts them. I can't use the Trunk Records site for the same reason.

@Plusnet it would be nice to be able to get some customer services but I guess that's too much to hope for

@CocklesFaulkner @Plusnet Thanks for the heads up! You'd think someone in customer service would have known about that. Spoke to about 4 people there with no mention of that at all.

I should be getting compensation for this service @Plusnet as just found out there was a strike for open reach workers, so I was never going to be connected today. Lied to me when I rang up, unwanted stress now.

Just been on the phone to @Plusnet about a broadband issue and while I was following your agents instructions to fix it (neither of us were talking) I heard one of your staff in the background say “if you could kill one Tory MP, who would it be?”. Disgusted beyond belief.

@Plusnet I'm trying to get my PAC code and I can't get it via text 'because it's already been issued' and the website wants me to call instead...except the reason I'm getting a PAC code to switch is because I have no service and therefore can't make calls.

@Plusnet I’m a new customer and was told my activation was today. I spent an hour getting through to your customer service who confirmed it was today. Still hasn’t been activated sent two DMs which have not been ignored. Can someone reply asap so disappointed with the service.
