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

  • BlocknBottle Block & Bottle (@BlocknBottle) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @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?!

  • 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 🙄

  • LeDreamboat Scott ⚫️⚪️ (@LeDreamboat) reported from Sacriston, England

    Don’t ever get @Plusnet broadband! Tried to cancel within 14 days of it going live due to it being absolutely useless, to then be told the cooling off period was from when I signed up!! 🤬. (Had to switch the WiFi off to tweet this)

  • mouse5555 Lynn Dixon (@mouse5555) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Don’t worry about it plusnet doesn’t work for long enough for anyone to have issues with safety

  • fredspoon Philip 👌🏼 (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Broadband down at home @Plusnet not great said there some fault needs and engineer.

  • 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)

  • 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

  • JimHerbert9 Jim Herbert (@JimHerbert9) reported

    @Plusnet you stopped providing a service and fobbed me offbut ive just paid your debt collection agency what a joke

  • Gingersam88 Gingersam (@Gingersam88) reported

    @Plusnet beyond useless. Another month and another overcharge ony broadband. Your customer support ticket previously said it would be sorted but nope, still overcharging

  • brownsandra1962 Sandyb (@brownsandra1962) reported

    @Plusnet Charming 😡 you didn't sort my problem out 😡 still having issues gggrrrrr

  • jamesel29350037 Jim Ellis (@jamesel29350037) reported

    @Plusnet Sorry , have had to cancel subscription, was getting nervous on not hearing anything and taken up another supplier. It seems odd that I'm getting plenty of emails on my cancellation bit would have been good to have some confirmation on the joining etc. Had nothing !

  • moshi_cs moshi (@moshi_cs) reported

    hello @plusnet . no internet since 9 in the morning. red broadband light and flashing orange. tried 4 different routers. please help

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @Delilah71847825 I'm sorry to hear you feel this way Delilah - when you say stupid questions, what is it that you were being asked? - Jess, Plusnet Leeds 🌻

  • louise_sarah Louise 🌈 (@louise_sarah) reported from St Albans, England

    What I wouldn't give to just have *1* day without any internet problems from @Plusnet counting down the days till I can leave and go to someone with decent customer service and internet that doesn't drop every 10 minutes

  • SgtArthurWilson The Honourable Sergeant Arthur Wilson (@SgtArthurWilson) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks for the reply Chris, but over 3 hours of log in issues, automatically being directed in to the hub menu, frankly one is done and will cancel. Never known anything like it. One normally simply puts in wireless password & hey presto connected. This is pure farce..🙄

  • louise_sarah Louise 🌈 (@louise_sarah) reported

    @Plusnet I have. Multiple times. It's no help at all. I'd like to actually know what the charge is for leaving the contract early because you can't provide a working service and have no interest in trying to sort it out
