  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

    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)

  • 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.

  • 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?!

  • 75pmd PMD75 (@75pmd) reported

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet Just called your customer service no. "Push 1 if you'd like to speak to someone. If not, thanks for calling" Pushes 1. Phone hangs up. Why would I call customer services? Not to listen to a recorded message.

  • Holdstk Brighteyes (@Holdstk) reported

    For @Plusnet Fleur in Customer Services not only has the tech know how, which is a given, but is patience & curticy personified when dealing with a technophobe.

  • sambridgman72 samantha stanton (@sambridgman72) reported

    Come on @Plusnet your Internet is awful tonight!

  • JoeAdambibby3 Joe Adam bibby (@JoeAdambibby3) reported

  • dr_mabuse1985 dr.mabuse (@dr_mabuse1985) reported

    @Plusnet hey plusnet I still haven't received sim card from despite you porting my number from prev supplier. Thanks for that I have now had no service for 2 days

  • AndyPeace316 Andy Peace (@AndyPeace316) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp We REALLY need a solution please. I've spoken to two agents today, both have walked me through the same advice, nothing has helped. We have VERY poor broadband. It's intermittent and slow when on. I have 3 boys needing to do to schoolwork...(cont)

  • HelloNikDesign H E L L O I M N I K 🖍 (@HelloNikDesign) reported

    @TimGander @virginmedia But I will say, even though Plusnet are on a BT line, they are good - I went to them about a new customer deal as an existing customer and they gave it to me, so swings and roundabouts

  • BuntingsWorld Rob Bunting (@BuntingsWorld) reported

    @JHow989 @Plusnet @plusnethelp Best thing I ever did was get on BT. Full control over it. What the companies tend to do is only release a smaller bandwidth to each customer, more you pay more bandwidth you get. Hence getting shitty WiFi from plus net /talk talk etc.

  • birobasher Biro Basher (@birobasher) reported

    @plusnethelp Problems accessing Plusnet mobile account. Isn't recognising either password, email or phone number (doesn't say which is wrong)

  • w1bble Jamie 💙 (@w1bble) reported

    @SPCoulson @Plusnet spoofed numbers are still spoofed numbers, no UK telco bothers to stop or prevent them and blocking is (as always) a whack a mole problem.
