  • 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)

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

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

  • 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.

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

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • 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)

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

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

    @Plusnet I have no internet connection and work from home. I've tried ringing multiple numbers, all tell me via an automated message youre busy and to ring back then hang up, the live chat person told me to message twitter....I've been trying for 2 hours, can someone help?

  • EdmundEnglish Edmund English (@EdmundEnglish) reported

    Not even able to join a Q because @plusnet says it has too many calls - hardly award winning support if you can’t even get in a line for support

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @tyler_allicock Hi Tyler, we are very sorry that some customers are experiencing problems with broadband services this morning. This should now be fixed, are you able to reset the router and let us know if you're having any further issues. - Curtis, Plusnet Sheffield

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @MarkusDarkus83 Hi Mark, I'm sorry to see you're unable to use the internet. There has been an outage this morning which should have been resolved now. Are you able to reset your router and let us know if this is now working? - Curtis, Plusnet Sheffield

  • paulculshaw Paul Culshaw (@paulculshaw) reported

    Plusnet also down in Manchester. Looks like I’ll need to use my mobile data for work. #plusnet

  • stayingaliveuk Michael de Groot (@stayingaliveuk) reported

    @Plusnet @OVLHSSociety Thank you Curtis the problem is why does it take over an hour from when your started to let all of us know. This is when your guys let yourselves down. You can’t claim award winning customer service when you do this. Just be honest with us we can clearly see it’s down!!

  • annmilne9 anna milne (@annmilne9) reported

    @Plusnet My internet went down around midnight and has not long come back on DT4 area. Not good. Customer services phoneline just says busy/cant answer calls phone back later 2day/2morrow.

  • RuthDucker Ruth Ducker (@RuthDucker) reported

    Experiencing Internet outage @Plusnet via #johnlewisinternet .. my workday has just ground to a monumental halt. When working from home doesn't work. Suddenly realise I spend my entire day on video calls.. so I can safely say deadlines are not happening today.

  • NeilHerbert Neil Herbert (@NeilHerbert) reported

    @Plusnet @solarwhite100 @zabbix I'm now waiting patiently for plusnet to terminate my contract for slating them here... it's ok it'll probably take a while for them to figure it out....

  • Tecton18 Tecton (@Tecton18) reported

    @Plusnet I'm missing work now, and just got a "we may take longer than 20 minutes to get back to you text" a full hour after being told that the problem is within my home network. Which it is not Useless.
