    @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!

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

  • 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

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

  • 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 🙄

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

    @DonaKempton @SkyUK @Plusnet Well sky rent bt technology and plusnet are owned by bt so when I check .. for example .. down detector I always check bt status too ..

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

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

    @plusnethelp just so you are aware plusnet have places ILLEGAL restrictions onto my account again and it is now my intention to take this issue further .. another disgraceful example of plusnets arrogance and utter lack of customer consideration !!!

  • 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 ...

  • 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...

  • 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. 😢

    @Plusnet I'm very happy with my PlusNet broadband and I've been with you many years but this aspect of your customer support is crap. My options seem to be: a) phone and wait 20mins+ or b) phone and wait 20 mins + Hmmnn... 🤔

  • ABChaplinsBoot
    A B Chaplin's Boot (@ABChaplinsBoot) reported

    @Plusnet I am leaving you on 28/01. You've just billed me for 29/01 onwards and will take via direct debit. I can't get through and you have no online chat. Can someone please help me to confirm you acknowledge my cancellation and will not take funds. Thank you.

  • rosieon25371922
    rosie posie (@rosieon25371922) reported

    @Plusnet I joined in Dec. Promised £150 voucher. Claimed it. Never arrived. Chased to be told u have no record of me claiming & I can't prove claim as done on your website so tough luck out of time. WTF? This is not a "straightforward" way to do business. It is welching! Pay up!

  • MikeyCleave
    Mikey Cleave (@MikeyCleave) reported

    @Plusnet Already raised a complaint and doesn't seem to be making a difference! Really quite woeful to be honest. Please can you forward my complaint to the Ombudsman

  • GaryThatcher2
    Fatch (@GaryThatcher2) reported

    @Plusnet so I cancel my contract with you 6-8 weeks ago and you now take a new payment from my account today. Then I’m told it’s ok you can have it back in 30 days… wtf?

    @Plusnet I’m sick of you guys. You can’t help over the phone or nothing what’s this???

  • miriamkirkp
    miriam kirkpatrick (@miriamkirkp) reported

    @SimonHawkins @Plusnet If you login to your account it shows you bill and payments underneath it's contract details and it tells you everything. Just checked mine ( broadband) but not sure if it's the same for mobile phone contract

    @plusnet Is anyone else’s PlusNet internet down? I’m in N1. Nothing showing on Down Detector.

  • MarkTWIC
    Mark Crowther (@MarkTWIC) reported

    @Owramgirl @bt_uk I'm considering Vodaphone if price is the main concern, Plusnet is also on that list. Zen if I decide to pay more for a company that seems more customer focused. All are cheaper than the best offer from BT.

    Verified Jedi (@LoZeno) reported

    I swear, having to deal with @WeAreOpenreach and @Plusnet bouncing me back and forth just to have my fibre order, WHICH I PLACED IN FEBRUARY, fulfilled before MAY, is a layer of customer service hell I did not need. Openreach is organised with the sole purpose of making it..
