    @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

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

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

  • 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)

  • 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 🙄

  • 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?!

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

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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

  • 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.

  • joy__miriam Joy (@joy__miriam) reported

    @Plusnet No you're not. I had to increase broadband in April at start of pandemic because couldn't get through to tech support and speed had plummeted. Now being charged early exit fee to leave after over five years. Will never return.

  • robjohnsinfo Rob Johns (@robjohnsinfo) reported

    My #plusnet broadband is down today. All lights are on but devices kept hanging. Hopeless trying to contact anyone by phone - kept on hold subjected to endless, mind numbing Christmas music. Very poor customer service. What to do? 🤔 @plusnethelp

  • TheWolfofDonSt Connecting With D.O.T.S - EP OUT NOW (@TheWolfofDonSt) reported

    Actually missed the bells because my WiFi is so ****. Eat my entire ******* @Plusnet. (To whatever customer service rep has to see this message i’m sorry and I hope you have a lovely year)

  • joy__miriam Joy (@joy__miriam) reported

    @Plusnet But not when you find out how heartless you are. I had to increase broadband April at start of pandemic because couldn't get through to tech support and speed had plummeted. Now being charged early exit fee to leave after over five years. Will never return.

  • jeffreydaniel22 Jofroop (@jeffreydaniel22) reported

  • aitch_R_aitch Rach (@aitch_R_aitch) reported

    @58ALL @Plusnet Lauren, I've spoken to 4 CS reps on the phone, been kept on hold for 45 minutes, still got no service and pretty bored with the whole thing - I'm not sure that sending you a DM is gonna improve the situation! "Installed" on the 29th and still sat looking at flashing red light 😤

  • vicster28 Victoria Barns (@vicster28) reported

    @Plusnet do you have an email that I can reach someone to discuss issues with WiFi? The website doesn’t seem to be working for me and your chat isn’t available

  • theodore_bagwe Theodore Bagwell (@theodore_bagwe) reported

    @Plusnet There are people like me up and down the country that cannot get online because of your dreadful service

  • DONNYDIVArl Rosie L (@DONNYDIVArl) reported
