Plusnet Issues Reports Near Sunderland, England

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

  • 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.

  • 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 🙄

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

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

  • 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?!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mdfdvntrs Modified Ventures (@mdfdvntrs) reported

    @davidcwildman @Plusnet @plusnet are scammers. They were unable to deliver a working dsl "broadband" when I moved into a new place (only line option available), then dragged things out with promises beyond the legal 14 days and now extort me out of £200 to get rid of them - tried to cancel since day 8.

  • ChloeRaccoon Chloe Raccoon (@ChloeRaccoon) reported

    @fatedfox @Plusnet Yet they will open a ticket with "Hi and thanks for your time today on the telephone, i can confirm the reason why your broadband is down is because of a major service outage in the area," Can't be that major if it's not listed I guess...

  • carlmyhill Carl Myhill (@carlmyhill) reported

    Just had some callers claiming to be from @bt_uk offering fibre to home if i'm not already a BT customer. Since I'm with @Plusnet (Open Reach) & 'already a customer' they could NOT offer me fibre to home. Kinda rubbish @Ofcom - plus i cant call BT to check they were legit

  • yorkshabastard LlamaSouffle27 (@yorkshabastard) reported

    @Plusnet It's not good value when you mess up, close an active account resulting in no service multiple times and then charge an early cancellation fee which hasn't been returned for over six weeks in a cost of living crisis. #uselessplusnetthieves

  • NethertonNews Netherton Foundry (@NethertonNews) reported

    Hi folks. We’ve been having problems with our internet since Tuesday evening and @plusnet cannot send an engineer until tomorrow. Apologies if our service to you is not what it could be and we hope to be back on track soon. #thankgoodnessformobiledata

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    Oh wow @Plusnet, you really don't get it! You were charging me nearly £45 & you wanted me to pay it for October & you didn't raise the cancellation of the contract til after the bill was raised & refused to cancel my contract for past month. There's was no way I was paying it!

  • ivbart Ivan Bartolo (@ivbart) reported

    There seems to be a #plusnet mass outage in the Hebden Bridge area - phone OK but no #broadband. Plusnet told me it will last until 11am tomorrow 6 Nov.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @sjcoates67 Hi there Steven, I'm sorry about the problems you've been having with a lack of mobile signal. We're not aware of any issues but please get back to me with your mobile number if that's still a problem. Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • smithychick SARAH SMITH (@smithychick) reported

    @Plusnet I have just joined but I thought I could keep my landline (same address) but you sent me another number and I cannot get through on your phone lines and the website does not help or the chat. If I definitely cannot keep my current no. I need to cancel and get a refund?
