  • 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

    @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

  • 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

    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)

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

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

  • 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 🙄

  • gregorybaser Gregory Baser (@gregorybaser) reported from Plymouth, England

    @Plusnet Once again. no broadband, more minusnet than plusnet. No help available until tomorrow. More than dissatisfied and disappointed. 😔

  • chinmj Matt (@chinmj) reported

    @FrPsiChi @Plusnet I get that they don't currently support it, the question is whether they will by the time that the signal boxes are deactivated at the end of June.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @systematicdata Hi Al, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience caused by that issue yesterday. This has since been resolved and all customers affected should now be able to access YouTube again. If you do come across any other problems, please let us know. -Tony Plusnet Sheffield

  • chinmj Matt (@chinmj) reported

    Hi @Plusnet - I only get signal at home with an EE Signal Box. I see it's been announced that these are being turned off on 30 June, and EE/BT advises using Wifi Calling, which you don't support. Will you have enabled wifi-calling by then, or do I need a new provider?

  • prjohn42 Peter Johnston (@prjohn42) reported

    @Plusnet Broadband and Landline not working.

  • FrPsiChi Simon Chinery (@FrPsiChi) reported

    @chinmj @Plusnet Plusnet mobile doesn't support wifi calling but if your phone SIM is EE and Plusnet provide your home internet (via bt line) you should be fine.

  • TagCraigy Craig (@TagCraigy) reported

    @Plusnet majorly slow today - any info on down time?

  • mrscordner Jennifer Cordner (@mrscordner) reported

    @Plusnet absolutely first class customer service from Matthew today.. sorted the wi-fi connection for my mum.

  • knee_peas TheAJMason (@knee_peas) reported

    @Hollydunne @AmazonHelp Excellent, you would have thought BT & plusnet would have at least let us all know. Happy to help.
