    @Plusnet HELP! Our internet’s gone down, how can we get it up and running in the next 1 hour and 11 minutes before we open?!

  • ChattonCottages Sheila Bull (@ChattonCottages) reported from Riding Mill, England

    @Plusnet If only..... 3 months ans till not connected. Dreadful service

  • 2012neil2012 Outdoorsey (@2012neil2012) reported from Dunston, England

    @Plusnet I am having issues with my home WiFi connection since doing a separate password change on my plusnet online account. Do you have an email address I can send router reference images to , to discuss / resolve? Many thanks

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    @benjymous @Plusnet Sounds much more like it from their customer services. I’ll try and use the referral code if I can, but it may clash with the Bluelight discount my wife gets. Gouging a #keyworker in a global crisis isn’t classy thanks again @EE.

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    From recent experience I can confirm this tweet is total nonsense. I’m moving all of my services elsewhere. Customer service 0/10, shambles. I suggest you all check if you can get a better deal elsewhere. (@Plusnet expect my call)

  • remenos Joanne Emerson (@remenos) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    @PickGS @Plusnet @plusnethelp It’s blatant profiteering - I need broadband to work from home and I’m now paying £35 instead of £22 - and to think their selling point was excellent UK customer service 🙄

  • MichFosb Michael Fosbrooke (@MichFosb) reported

    @Plusnet I'm a customer and want to add an additional service. The website didn't allow it. I rang the helpdesk but was on hold for an hour and 18 minutes before giving up. I tried the online chat bot but its logic is flawed. I replied to email but its not picked up. Any ideas?

  • PunkOpaque ThePunkOpaque (@PunkOpaque) reported

    @Plusnet your website is saying 'technical issues' Broken again.

  • Helenpilson1 Helen pilson (@Helenpilson1) reported

    @Plusnet can someone please help me. I need information on my plusnet sim abroad.

  • legendkiller2k8 LegendKiller2k ™⚪ (@legendkiller2k8) reported

    @Plusnet Please no need for you to apologise it's your complaint section that are waste of time, it is with the Ombudsman service now, all for £1.50p/m you're losing a customer.

  • Nataliejo1287 Natalie Jones (@Nataliejo1287) reported

    @OpenreachHelp Your organisation has been in dialogue with @Plusnet constantly why have you not suggested and carried this out!! Not acceptable to throw that back as an answer. Woeful Customer Service. Maybe you can do this tomorrow as you suggest.

  • Mike_Page Mike Page (@Mike_Page) reported

    @Plusnet Hi. I keep getting emails from you indicating that our email mailboxes are approaching, or now over, 1GB. But when we log in (to Webmail - terrible interface btw) we can’t see any emails that need deleting. The email instructions make no sense. Please advise.

  • BuryCasual87 Mike P (@BuryCasual87) reported from Plymouth, England

    Woke up this morning with really poor WiFi from @Plusnet. Never had any problems before today. Anyone else having a problem? Noting will work via WiFi? Even my Google chrome won't play the radio it's that poor? Not good

  • MatthewHewitt84 🦋𝐿𝒶𝓂𝒷 - 𝑀𝒶𝓉𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓌 🐝 (@MatthewHewitt84) reported

    On Plusnet Fibre Extra which I use to get 75mb but overtime I’m now 53mb. I can get Full fibre 75mb for £25.99 pm, crap really 150mb package better but not at £31.99! Expected better package and cheaper prices @Plusnet

  • bopthehonest Stephen Booth (@bopthehonest) reported

    @Plusnet Hoping you can help…I arrived in Calgary, Canada earlier today but I can’t roam unless connected to WiFi. I’ve checked my roaming settings and they are correct and I have data available.
