Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Sunderland and nearby locations:

  • 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 🙄

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • JulieSpeakman1 Julie Speakman (@JulieSpeakman1) reported

    @Plusnet Hi please can someone assist me I’m a business customer and have been trying to ring the number on your website and the number is unavailable. I’ve found another number online and have been on hold now for 1 hour 😡

  • rachel_say Rachel Say (@rachel_say) reported

    So what is the solution when your @Plusnet SIM just stops working and you can't make any calls or texts (>24 hrs now)? According to app/website etc, it's give them a call. Errrrm, slight issue there...

  • foxflakes Rosie (@foxflakes) reported

    @Plusnet helloo, I was just signing up for a sim only contract and my WiFi dropped, which sent me back to the homepage. The money came out of my account but I haven't had any emails or other info. Can you help?

  • The_Morningstar Tony H (@The_Morningstar) reported

    Bloody broadband is down, there doesn't seem to be a way to report it to @Plusnet

  • IainHam42753216 Paisley Buddie (@IainHam42753216) reported

    @cal_ann @Plusnet Use uSwitch via Topcashback. We got £85 back. Were we live the signal is poor whoever we use but our Plusnet was far better than our current Vodafone. We have 3 different providers with 3 different tariffs and speeds. I go for cheapest as it is still double the speed I use now.

  • C1aireGee Claire Gallagher (@C1aireGee) reported

    @Plusnet 18 incoming calls I've had since 11th April. That doesn't count the emails, the messages between me and customer service on my @Plusnet accout. And this is all after the fact of weeks and weeks of bad customer service. This issue is me chasing up compensation for bad service!

  • caz90210 top banana ! (@caz90210) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks for response - I did that in the end and it fixed the issue x

  • braintumourlady Hev 💙TheNHS (@braintumourlady) reported from Penzance, England

    Is anyone else here a @Plusnet customer? I'm having the mother of all internet hassles at the moment. The router is working and I have wifi but no internet. Are they down? Have re booted etc but to no avail. It's been almost an hour.

  • C1aireGee Claire Gallagher (@C1aireGee) reported

    @Plusnet (2) each time they promise they are on their way, will be there by Monday etc then admit something went wrong they haven't been sent. Now they've promised a direct debit refund, said it would be 3-5 working days, it never materialised. They said it wasn't authorised @Plusnet ....
