  • 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

  • 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)

  • ShootTheDrummer Chris Wallace (@ShootTheDrummer) reported

    @Shaun_Sheppard @Plusnet We’ve been getting intermittent speed issues for a bit. Happens once a week, but cycling the router doesn’t do anything. Reminds me of being back on dialup, but at least the internet doesn’t scream at me now.

  • Signedbysophiee Soph ✨🇯🇲 (@Signedbysophiee) reported

    I work from home. I need internet to be able to pay my bills. Since I joined @Plusnet on 11/08 I’ve not had a full 24 hours of service. 5 engineers, new wires, holes in my walls + 2 boxes later and still nothing. I’m at my wits end, this is ridiculous.

  • Lindaj22Linda Linda Jervis (@Lindaj22Linda) reported

    @Plusnet please cancel my contract immediately

  • foxtrottangoj Fiona Jay (@foxtrottangoj) reported

    @Plusnet Had an intermittent loss of service for 3 days, mostly impacting me after your help centre opening hours. Getting really irritated, thinking of leaving. Just spoken to 'Tyler' in Leeds: sorted it out 4 me, really helpful & friendly. Great #CustomerService -he's an asset

  • Grumpyduck Chris (@Grumpyduck) reported

    @Plusnet I'm having continued problems with my router losing connection over the last 3 weeks. Any chance of a replacement.?

  • sghughes42 Stephen Hughes (@sghughes42) reported

    @Plusnet Any thoughts on why my mother's broadband in SR8 postcode is very intermittent? Was slow at first, now stopped. Hub seems to think it is connected. Before it died I did a speed check, got 0.5mb down but 4mb up which isn't right.

  • SussexRivers UKalchemy (@SussexRivers) reported from Robertsbridge, England

    Broadband down for 12 hrs again so far; 2nd time in as many weeks @Plusnet; not sure if it’s the same fault as wasn’t told what the problem was 1st time

  • Lime_AT_Ltd_UK Lime Assistive Technology Ltd, UK (@Lime_AT_Ltd_UK) reported

    @Plusnet Anoush. I have the problem again, but have found that whilst I cannot access the www as a whole, or use the Whatsapp for @Windows app, I CAN access ONLY @Google sites. I pay for #AVG #InternetSecurity, but am suspicious now. Sarah

  • IamSiwan Siwan 🐾 (@IamSiwan) reported

    @Plusnet Yesterday I arranged to switch to you on the 27th September but last night I had an email confirming the switch on the 20th! I'll be penalised by my current provider if the switch occurs before the 26th so can this switch date be changed? Otherwise I'll have to cancel...
