  • 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)

  • 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?!

  • 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 🙄

  • 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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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)

  • jessop_j John Jessop (@jessop_j) reported

    Trying to get sense from their chatbot Tobi is virtually impossible. Speaking to humans in customer service and being passed to someone else who supposedly tested my line was worse than frustrating. I never had this crap from old Plusnet.

  • PiesMcQ Pies McQ (@PiesMcQ) reported

    @Plusnet It is now over 3 weeks since I paid you to install Broadband- you still have not even found the phone line, I dont think you are capable of supplying me with a service, I want my money back and my contract cancelled.

  • spookymonts lilly🔮 𝕽𝖍𝖊𝖆 & 𝕲𝖔𝖜𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖗 fan (@spookymonts) reported

    @rizripley Plusnet is so insanely ****

  • JayF0190 JayF (@JayF0190) reported

    @Plusnet Is the internet down in SK17? can't connect on full fibre, just orange lights on the hub

  • clarets1969 Dave King (@clarets1969) reported

    @Plusnet current customer on broadband 50mbs looking to upgrade to 500mbs. Will I need a new router and hence all passwords change?

  • SturdySteve24 Steve Lawrence #FBPE (@SturdySteve24) reported

    @plusnet. The 1572 service is not working, we have been called by 07594865713 six times tonight. I want divert calls from this number to junk, please advise

  • dancludlow Dan Ludlow (@dancludlow) reported

    Well Done. EE is a wholly owned subsidiary of BT, and is being used as its main marketing arm. Plusnet is another, more at the budget end, and with fewer strings to its bow. Finally, Openreach is another subsidiary that installs and maintains the network for all suppliers, so it has a degree of autonomy.

  • nw_nicholas Mr Ethical (@nw_nicholas) reported

    @Plusnet when will I receive my automatic compensation for lack of service?

  • Bzth Beth (@Bzth) reported

    @Plusnet for 2 nights in a row my internet has dropped at the same time of night for no apparent reason... Help please!

  • lucyerber Lucy Erber (@lucyerber) reported

    @wmarybeard @VodafoneUK Firstly you will be entitled to compensation-won’t help you now I know but I ended up with nearly 1 free year from Plusnet for something similar. But you can attach your mobile to your laptop and run that from the phones 5G. Google it for instructions how
