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)

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?!

  • Meatlegs1 Mighty Meatlegs (@Meatlegs1) reported

    @WithChrisNKeith They are objectively terrible. I did broadband tech support with Sky and as much as I rag on them, they're probably some of the more stable, Plusnet has been pretty good in my experience as well

  • ExpensePlus ExpensePlus (@ExpensePlus) reported

    @Plusnet @Deku_shrub Hi Plusnet, I'm also having an issue with connecting to Slack and get a DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error. All other websites work fine. If I hotspot from my phone I can connect to Slack fine (so not an issue with Slack), but rather with your DNS record

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @Der55230962 Hi there Sorry to see that, we can't help with a cancellation over social media so please give our customer options team a call on 0800 432 0200, in case you'd like to stay with us I'm sure we could arrange another deal as part of a new contract too. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • Suzy_Harlington 📌Suzy Harlington. Limited Edition (@Suzy_Harlington) reported

    @BoneFree12 PlusNet - I need to call them tomorrow. They’re really good customer service wise

  • jimigav Jim Gavin (@jimigav) reported

    @Plusnet Hi. Can you check my landline please. The ringer wasn't working yesterday. There was an Openreach engineer in the road and I mentioned it to him. He looked at my phone settings, couldn't find any problem, and said he would call back in 10 minutes. 24 Hours later....

  • Bella33286376 Bella (@Bella33286376) reported

    @Plusnet hi, service keeps cutting out in N2 9BU, please can someone look into this for me ASAP? Cheers

  • LittleG27383051 LittleGEM (@LittleG27383051) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I've lost Internet, trouble shooter tells me I have to wait for service activation (been a customer for over a month) and email address no longer recognised so can't log in to community?? What happened?

  • Lors61 Laura Mark (@Lors61) reported

    Hi @Plusnet I've been having intermittently slow internet over the past few days. Can you help?

  • Flossiefrufru Flossie the ****** (@Flossiefrufru) reported

    @Plusnet internet has been slow and dipping for past 2 days. Can you help? Not showing any issues on status updates

  • umbugnet John Turner (@umbugnet) reported

    @Plusnet In short, my only wiring is the lead from the master socket to the router. I've tried replacing that, tried a different router & tried plugging into the test socket & my speed remains very much lower than it should be. This suddenly happened after a lightning strike. Please fix!
