  • 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

  • HannahRose1401 Hannah Jeffrey 🇪🇺 (@HannahRose1401) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Has your Internet gone down @plusnethelp @Plusnet? NHS worker struggling to work from home here.

  • 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

    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)

  • 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?!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • Lizzyr59 Lizzy Robinson (@Lizzyr59) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • Malc_Armstrong Malcmite (@Malc_Armstrong) reported

    @AmyTurner1316 @outagedetect I can barely access the net on pc. Nothing connects. Even the plusnet webpage is broken. No online apps work, completely broken service

  • Waterlooville10 Peterbleddyn (@Waterlooville10) reported

    @Plusnet God help anyone with plusnet and you want to get away from them...if you make one mistake they will send round debt collectors 4 months latter

  • TheWatc47403040 The Watchman (@TheWatc47403040) reported

    @Plusnet No Lauren. The whole internet was unavailable to pretty much most of us. Not just emails, websites too. Total blackout. It took over 3 hours for everything to come back online. Your server status page was offline too. Stop lying.

  • U4ER4all Geoff (@U4ER4all) reported

    @Plusnet I appreciate things go down occasionally, I just wanted to know whether it was at your end or mine. Most users had to search around to find out where the problem was. I wasted time fault finding my setup

  • RedFairy RedFairy (@RedFairy) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband is still off. Has been since about 10am. I’ve been patient but the lack of communication and support is getting very annoying now! Trying to work from home has been near impossible. Just some honest info would be appreciated

  • chivey Chivey for PM 💙 (@chivey) reported

    @Plusnet The lack of information and this cut and paste response is not something I feel is consistent with a company with “award winning customer service”.

  • JustCrac Just hear for the crac (@JustCrac) reported

    @Plusnet “Some” don’t you mean the whole of your UK network!
