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

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • stevegaish stevegaish (@stevegaish) reported from Whickham, England

    @Plusnet Hi its Stevegaish. I have emailed on numerous occasions but still no resolution.

  • 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

    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)

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

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

  • Lizzyr59 Lizzy Robinson (@Lizzyr59) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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.

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

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

    @Plusnet 48 hours and no response? Help please! Please check your DM

  • Psymonkee Simon Paulton (@Psymonkee) reported

    @Plusnet There was some work carried out on Monday at the cabinet I think which seems to have resolved things for now. I'll let you know if there are further issues.

  • RichStaff1 Richard Llewellyn (@RichStaff1) reported

    @eleanor_c88 @Plusnet They have been terrible with my house move and left me with no broadband for over a month now

  • acidmag_uk James Barker (@acidmag_uk) reported

    @bt_uk Thank you for the quick response. Tried BT once more (that's THREE TIMES today) and got lucky - the agent understood the problem and is removing the marker. There is a training gap in your call centre, agents saying it was a @Plusnet mistake when it was theirs.

  • SagarJan Sagar Desai (@SagarJan) reported

    @Plusnet I am facing jitter since morning with plusnet broadband. It is hampering my work from home very heavily and I am so irritated by your service. What the hell you guys are doing. #plusnetsucks #worstinternet #plusnet

  • 14will14 Breeze (@14will14) reported

    @PaulDAFC @Plusnet I remember there were multiple threads on their forums about this. It's annoying to have to expense a router to resolve their issues though but I'd wanted a dedicated router anyway. I'd probably still recommend phoning them and reporting a fault on your line first

  • sgw5678 Stephen W💙 (@sgw5678) reported

    @radiohead319 @Mandoline_Blue I was going to suggest Plusnet. I think money saving expert has a list of which virtual providers use which network.

  • kofiGyedu kofi Gyedu (@kofiGyedu) reported

    @Plusnet All is not well. I seem to have good network after 6pm and no or 1 bar signal during the day

  • 14will14 Breeze (@14will14) reported

    @PaulDAFC @Plusnet Had a lot of issues with the Plusnet router. Phoned them multiple times and they refused to do anything about it. Ended up buying a dedicated router instead and so far haven't had any problems - that was over a year ago now.

  • Gavwightman Gavin Wightman (@Gavwightman) reported

    @Plusnet now 16 days since confirming switch from BT and still no Router received. Still no internet which means no tv or CCTV #poor
