    @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?

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet any issues in WN8? Download has dropped to just above 1 over the past few days. Nothing seems to fix the issue. It’s painfully slow and well below what I’m paying for. Any help appreciated!

  • jamesksowerby Sups Like a Sumerian. (@jamesksowerby) reported from Bolton, England

    It has been a rubbish online week with the internet down for hours, with @Plusnet still charging, and my relying on my mobile signal more than usual

  • nickhornbee Nicholas Hornby (@nickhornbee) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet hi my internet has been down since midday. Is there an outage?

  • 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.

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • nebzy17 nebzy (@nebzy17) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet Stop arsing around with this crap and answer my message to @plusnethelp - Why you got staff on football polls???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • 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...

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet you are the worst I ever used. I just want things to come back to normal so I can change ... never use #plusnet it’s the worst. Slow... expensive ... and no response if you call

  • Siftah John Baxendale (@Siftah) reported from Manchester, England

    @adechapmanlaw Problem is their phone line is crap, so PlusNet (who they were previously with) also would never get the phone line sorted and they were left with the same crappy speeds. Have signed them up with Sky fibre for less than they were paying for ADSL!

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet I tried all you ask me to try... you are the worse network ever. You expensive you slow and you basic. On this lockdown you were terrible... but still can merge with @VodafoneUK that charge 7 pounds for a call they didn’t pick up ...

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    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.

  • micahscotttt mary queen of thots 🥦Ⓥ (@micahscotttt) reported from Manchester, England

    Bit **** how I’ve been on the phone to plusnet around 6 times now regarding my broadband which isn’t working and after failing to phone me back like they promised yesterday they finally report it as a fault in the line which could take 3-5 days to be addressed.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @LouiseA17186459 Hi Louise! So line rental costs are essential for a broadband connection. The broadband service runs on the same line as the phone so this is necessary for either or both services, if that makes sense. Let me know if you've got any other questions about this! - Cal, Plusnet Leeds

  • ktnolanxx katie (@ktnolanxx) reported

    @Plusnet I am disgusted that you are allowing people to take out phone contacts without notifying them that there is an issue. I want to switch to a different provider but have been told that I could lose my original phone number. I have now been without a working phone since 12th April.

  • NeilZammit5 Neil Zammit (@NeilZammit5) reported

    @Plusnet @ktnolanxx I have the same issue. What i want to know is how many people are affected, when is the issue going to be fixed, and what compensation are you going to give me for the total failure to honour your contract with me. For a start, how about giving people affected free temp SIMS!

  • xkatie_morganx katie Morgan (@xkatie_morganx) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, still not working, still saying I have no service 🙄

  • ADMason Andy Mason (@ADMason) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, any known issues in BS30, please? Broadband’s been down for a few mins now - flashing orange light on the router? Cheers 👍

  • MichaelLahiri83 Michael Lahiri (@MichaelLahiri83) reported

    @Plusnet 1 hour and 26 mins on the phone to you today, to be told they can arrange a manager call back withing a week! Seriously? Counting down the days until my contract is up!

  • MCMLXXXIVCLXI -..-._._-._:-_._-.-__-._:-._ (@MCMLXXXIVCLXI) reported

    @Plusnet Dear Plusnet, I can't get hold of you to pay my bill. My lanline is down, and your restrictions have blocked me to your site.
