  • 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

    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)

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • 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)

  • 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 🙄

  • PUSBMartyn COYB Martyn 🥅🏒 (@PUSBMartyn) reported

    @Plusnet I have been a customer for a number of years and still have a Huawei EchoLife HG612 connected to a ASUS router can I request a Hub 2 to replace the two units I have never been offered a hub1 or a hub2

  • PM0wnu Paul McGee M0WNU (@PM0wnu) reported

    I have restored Pi-Hole functionality to my network, the only way to do this with the BT Smart Hub 2 is to disable it's DHCP and let Pi-Hole handle this instead before resetting device connections, in the Plusnet branded version this was not needed which is strange

  • berna44402 chemicalBern (@berna44402) reported

    @Plusnet I am a long time customer of Plusnet but still have the original router. I renewed my contract again at the end of March, can I get a new router from Plusnet?

  • handcuffedspell edie ⭐️ (@handcuffedspell) reported

    @coldpancakemeow omfg… we’re on BT rn but moving to PLUSNET… this mega fall off i’m so scared but if it’s **** i’m sure kenny will go back he’s too impatient

  • Fitbawdiaries82 Fitbaw diaries (@Fitbawdiaries82) reported

    @Plusnet you are a disgrace FACT and your customer service is pathetic.

  • COLINTHIRD1969 COLIN THIRD (@COLINTHIRD1969) reported

    @Plusnet. I wish to terminate my contract under the 14 days notice cooling off period. The new package is slow and wish to go elsewhere. Please could you advise

  • StuntKi Nicola Cooper (@StuntKi) reported from Halesowen, England

    @Plusnet I joined BRSK on 18th July 2025 and was told by BRSK that Plusnet would be cut off on 19th July and I would then be sent my final bill from Plusnet. Plusnet then sent me a bill for another month for a service which I am not using. How do I make a complaint?

  • GarethSweet4 Gareth Sweet (@GarethSweet4) reported

    @Plusnet are you aware of any issues in SL6 area? Internet up but very slow

  • foxes1957 Red Ange 📚 (@foxes1957) reported

  • SenNufc Senny (@SenNufc) reported

    @YDKWYDPodcast just been listening to the pod on my walk down to the dentist, take out pods, walk into the reception but then hear big DEarl still in my ears as he's on an advert for Plusnet on the radio. It made me very confused and the dentist receptionist now thinks I'm odd.
