  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • fredspoon Philip 👌🏼 (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Broadband down at home @Plusnet not great said there some fault needs and engineer.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • robjohnsinfo Rob Johns - 📷 🎥 (@robjohnsinfo) reported

    @Plusnet broadband nightmare continues. I thought it was fixed yesterday. Came home and the dreaded red light flashing on the router. Tried resetting. No joy. Tried calling. Just been cut-off. Fed up with awful service and poor support. 😖

  • gewoodroffe Gem Woodroffe (@gewoodroffe) reported

    @Plusnet Having issues and now threatening emails despite a fault your end on our original account we had for years . We now have 3!! Can anyone actually resolve this….writing notes to billing isn’t working. Didn’t sleep last night over the stress of an email I received

  • D1Charlotte Charlotte (@D1Charlotte) reported

    @Plusnet your broadband and home phone service is diabolical. Not been working properly since Jan, you fob me off despite hours on the phone, a non working phone line is due to an electrical fault on my home? Plus broadband does not work, I want to leave the contract penalty free

  • cupofassam Mark Taylor-Batty (@cupofassam) reported

    Hi @Plusnet We've had poor and deteriorating wifi off our hub for a couple of days. Opened a ticket on Tuesday, but no response yet. What's the timescale for response to a fault ticket?

  • Misselbrook1 Daryl Misselbrook💙 (@Misselbrook1) reported

    @Plusnet Broadband been playing up since around 6pm, now no connection. I have diagnosed router and cables and all well, just no internet. Please help.

  • cupofassam Mark Taylor-Batty (@cupofassam) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks. We have tried all these recommendations. The wifi signal deteriorates again each time it is restored. Devices that could connect 10m away for years can no longer when more than 4m away from hub. No longer reaches the extender. Switching channels ok for a day.

  • ukdavies Andy Davies (@ukdavies) reported

    @Plusnet the reliability of Plusnet is pretty poor. We seem to get outages on a fairly frequent basis.

  • douglas_shand Prof. Douglas Shand (@douglas_shand) reported

    Hi @Plusnet - I need some help cancelling an account. For various reasons - I don't know the mobile number and can't log into the account online.........

  • BigDazBut Daryl Butterworth (@BigDazBut) reported

    .@Plusnet Hi. A general question, if I may. As the WiFi provision from your company's Hub One is truly awful, and at times unusable, does this constitute a permissable reason to leave you mid-contract without penalty? Thx.

  • Janet8uckingham Janet Buckingham (@Janet8uckingham) reported

    @Plusnet 4 weeks without any service or even a proposed connection date. Can someone please help me. This is not acceptable.....
