  • 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)

  • 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.

    @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

    @Plusnet Don’t worry about it plusnet doesn’t work for long enough for anyone to have issues with safety

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

  • BlocknBottle

    @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?!

    @Plusnet Hi its Stevegaish. I have emailed on numerous occasions but still no resolution.

  • 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)

    @Plusnet Naturally the only people actually responding to my tweets are scammers. Nothing new there. How embarrassing is it that the people faking being your company's customer service do a better job of pretending to help customers than you do actually helping them.

  • rosieon25371922
    rosie posie (@rosieon25371922) reported

    @Plusnet Let all of X see how transparent Plusnet's facade of good customer service is. Asking me to call a number that does not help me and just gaslights me / lies to me each time is NOT the solution. Plusnet honouring its promises IS. Plusnet cannot be trusted and abuses its clients.

    @Plusnet My phone is broken - dropped in the bath. This is why I'm reaching out here.

    @Plusnet I’m sick of you guys. You can’t help over the phone or nothing what’s this???

  • Jaddle
    Jude A (@Jaddle) reported

    If you want to know why the UK is draining down the plughole it is encapsulated in this: our internet is rubbish. Plusnet suggested full fibre. 2 months later we still don't have it. It's going to take 3 companies & 4 visits to get it installed. Time, cost, inefficiency. UK 2026

  • marklpotts
    Herr Markle Potz (@marklpotts) reported

    I shall soon finally be free of @Plusnet I have hated every single moment of being a customer of theirs.

  • MikeyCleave
    Mikey Cleave (@MikeyCleave) reported

    Absolute shambles from @Plusnet Was told to sign up with them due to good customer service. What a mistake that was. Don't seem to have a clue what they're doing! No dialogue between themselves or Openreach. Meant to be connected from today, but now without WiFi.

  • Pulman_PR
    Vicky Pulman (@Pulman_PR) reported

    @Plusnet My elderly mum has been with you for a number of years with absolutely shocking internet service & I now find she's paying £62 per month!!! Utterly unacceptable. We can't even watch a film. Speed test says sub 0.5mbps. Pls contact me to discuss remuneration & resolution

    @R4CK4TT4CK @bt_uk You do know Plusnet are BT? I was with them until they moved all their business customers over to BT. The Plusnet customers service team (not that I had much cause to contact them) were awesome.
