  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • 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

  • 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)

  • 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

    @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.

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

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

  • 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)

    @IanDunt Reality is that most companies are using BT lines and speeds won’t be massively different. Only Virgin have their own lines, more companies laying fibre but still utilising the OpenReach network for large parts. Means Sky, BT, Plusnet etc.. should all be pretty similar.

  • abrown439 alex brown (@abrown439) reported

    @Plusnet i am thinking of leaving as others provides are able to provide gfast. Does plusnet have any plans to support gfast?

  • AlexTodhunter Alex Todhunter (@AlexTodhunter) reported

    @Plusnet @Plusnet I can't believe it takes so much effort to close down my monthly contract. It took me 3 minutes to sign up. Now I'm being told I can only cancel by calling a telephone number which will likely have me on hold at a cost which exceeds my monthly bill!?!?

  • Lon_Unattached London-Unattached (@Lon_Unattached) reported

    @Plusnet It's OK I finally got through to customer service and the number port did happen. Just took me a couple of hours of holding on the line! (every half hour it cut me off!!!)

  • asplake Mike Burrows (@asplake) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, where to get help for a non-working freenetname email?

  • AngieBunnyJayne Ange Probert (@AngieBunnyJayne) reported

    @Plusnet hi. I’m having issues with my broadband, can someone help me please?

  • Blue_tattoo Wayne Herzberg (@Blue_tattoo) reported

    @Plusnet Hi plusnet. Recently I'm having issues with my email (Freenetname) Passwords are not matching but I haven't changed them??

  • QuestionerMoney Baron Adrian M 🇺🇦 (@QuestionerMoney) reported

    @Hazzreid Plusnet for customer service. Zen Internet seem to be the best from reviews. But you pay more.

  • BrimmellDen Den Brimmell 🇺🇦💙 The NHS (@BrimmellDen) reported

    @bt_uk As I’ve said previously, it’s not me that has problem,it’s my mom & neighbours but they can’t complain because their phones &/or internet are down! Some are with you,my mom is with @Plusnet. I live in same street but my (& others) phone & internet is fine (coz we’re fibre?) 😤

  • rossbrown Ross Brown (@rossbrown) reported

    Yo! @Plusnet, last couple of days my broadband keeps cutting out, requiring a full reboot of the router each time. Can I send you details for you to do a line check as it’s starting to cause work issues for me. Thanks.
