    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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 🙄

  • 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?!

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

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

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

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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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)

  • ___kw98___ kayla (@___kw98___) reported

    @Plusnet approaching an hour on hold and no reply to my DMs… if I didn’t have to choose you as a provider I definitely wouldn’t due to this shocking customer service it’s just a shame I don’t even have a choice

  • ilohraphael 𝕽𝖆𝖕𝖍𝖆𝖊𝖑 𝕴𝖑𝖔𝖍 ✨ ⭐ (@ilohraphael) reported

    Monthly bill suddenly went up by 77.5%; made phone calls to @plusnet today (at 09:38 & 17:19) seeking explanation. On each call, I waited for 25+ minutes and yet none of these calls was answered or attended to. Certainly NOT award-winning service @plusnethelp #plusnet #fail

  • joeyisaac3 Joe Isaac (@joeyisaac3) reported

    @Plusnet My bill has increased from £30 a month to £50 per month with no commumication from yourselves! I have tried to call but no answer on your phones! I need to know why my bill has increased! Please help! I cant be paying this much per month

  • PkwYorks SirPKWYorks (@PkwYorks) reported

    Just wasted 40 minutes on @Plusnet. Customer services is a joke, how they win 'awards' I've no idea as it must mean everyone else is even worse! Now to sort out what to do about my Willow Tree! This is not going to be a good day. Fed up & it's only 10!

  • claireish_rawr Claire (@claireish_rawr) reported

    @Plusnet wonder if you can help. I missed a direct debit payment for my mobile because my (deceased) grandmother's bank account was closed. I logged into the account this morning and payed the missed bill by card, then called up and changed the account into my name and set up new

  • 32bitwitch 32BitWitch ✨ (@32bitwitch) reported

    There's a pretty good chance that I'm going to be too frustrated to stream tonight. Let's play it by ear. Again: @Plusnet are the absolute worst.

  • Kamikamanning blessgirlmika🔥🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇧🇬🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 (@Kamikamanning) reported

    @Plusnet and want broadband BEFORE moving in. Help!! 2/2

  • mo_roodi Mo Djavanroodi (@mo_roodi) reported

    @sil I remember Vodafone did something similar. Honestly, I think the big providers are a bit of a rip off compared to the MVNO's. I switched to PlusNet from EE because they're basically the same network, I just pay a lot less!!!

  • dabelfastgirl lucie (@dabelfastgirl) reported

    @Plusnet two days in a row I've been trying to ring and can't get threw, on hold each time over 50 mins, customer service is really lacking

  • Hanrealistic Han Realistic (@Hanrealistic) reported

    @PkwYorks @Plusnet No customer services, all bullshit
