  • 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.

  • giftsofgraceuk Gifts of Grace (@giftsofgraceuk) reported

    @plusnet I changed my mind about upgrading and cancelled switch. Now I have text saying the new router is still being ordered. Can you cancel this for me as I no longer need it?

  • ecnarfi IanF (@ecnarfi) reported

    @Plusnet I usually access using pop3 in Gmail. Some emails have seemed slow to arrive lately so I wanted to connect directly and have a clear out. I had some success yesterday but it kept showing the error. Today it won't let me in at all.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @ecnarfi Hi Ian, I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble accessing your emails through Webmail. Do you access your emails only through Webmail, or do you use mail clients as well? -Tony Plusnet Sheffield

  • 350Pete Pedro (@350Pete) reported

    @O2 My number is due to be ported over to O2 today from Plusnet. Is there a particular time this is completed by. I'm in a very poor signal area and will not be able to receive the SMS confirmation that the transfer has been completed.

  • mcgregor_graeme Running for food (@mcgregor_graeme) reported

    So after 18 months of the absolute worst service ever from @Plusnet where they tell you your internet dropping out 5-6 times every day is not their fault and must be something to do with us, we finally switched to @virginmedia and surprise surprise, not a single problem since

    @Plusnet Its not working for me i am afraid, I would really appreciate it if you could email me or pass me your email address - is it possible for you to message me it please?
