  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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?!

  • 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)

  • 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

  • gman1406 Gareth (@gman1406) reported

    @Plusnet Hi my internet has been down again since about 2pm with no sign of it working. Happened on Monday too but seemed to resolve itself after a while, unlike today. Can you look into this please.

  • mrleeleencfc Lee ♿️ (@mrleeleencfc) reported

    @MartinSLewis @itvMLshow Just tried with @Plusnet. Had an email to renew with a 60p a month discount. Called to see if they could do any better. They said the email was the best they could offer. Going to shop around & switch as new customer offers are often better and it's so easy to switch now.

  • jdthebaker James Warburton (@jdthebaker) reported

    Stream cancelled tonight because, guess what?!, my Wi-Fi cut out - despite being assured 2 weeks ago that it had been repaired! I've finally had enough @Plusnet and I'll be switching providers at the earliest possible opportunity

  • andy17467869 andy (@andy17467869) reported

    @dave_killion @Plusnet **** company even worse wi fi

  • andy17467869 andy (@andy17467869) reported

    @Plusnet a manager was supposed to ring me at 2pm today is this the way to treat customers

  • HarrietMann H (@HarrietMann) reported

    @Plusnet My phone keeps kicking me off my WiFi - keeps saying password incorrect but it’s not changed since installed? Connection speed is terrible too

  • paulghosts8 🟣paul campbell (@paulghosts8) reported

    @Plusnet hi plusnet do you plan to go on the FTTP network some time this year or next it's live in our street now would love to sign up to plusnet for this when it's available

  • graceolivia92 Grace (@graceolivia92) reported

    @Plusnet hi, my wifi connection is horrible for the past week. The download can went from 10mbps to 1 mbps within minutes. The upload speed never passed 1mbps. How to solve this?

  • kathrynjohnston kathryn johnston (@kathrynjohnston) reported

    @Plusnet Respect to @Plusnet and Matt for testing my line remotely to analyse it. They checked the router remotely and made some changes to my router's wireless channel that might work and asked me to keep an eye on various other issues and get back in touch. Impressed with the service.

  • charlottewainn Charlotte Wain (@charlottewainn) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp is there an issue in RG45 area? Second time today WiFi has gone down, can’t connect to broadband. Tried everything and still can’t can’t connect.
