    @spazdiv I had Plusnet for around 6 years with no problems at all. Very fast and reliable. Only moved to Sky because it was a very cheap deal.

  • 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

    Plusnet must be the worst Internet provider, nothing but problems since switching to them.

  • rightsmartdan Dan Gale (@rightsmartdan) reported

    @ISPAUK I save on energy bills by turning off lights, on petrol by cycling and gas by turning down heating and yet, @Plusnet why do I still pay for the internet if I turn my router off at night? Why don’t we only pay for the internet we use? Genuine question.

  • HollyCave2 Holly Cave (@HollyCave2) reported

    @Plusnet I have been unable to make/receive calls and texts since leaving a remote holiday house in Yorkshire yesterday and travelling home. No internet either unless connected to WIFI. Thought it was due to storm but problem continues today. Same for husband also with plusnet.

  • houseofbailey Scott Bailey (@houseofbailey) reported

    @Plusnet Broadband has been down for hours. Area me13, is it down for all in this area? Have rebooted the router several times.

  • kingosticks kingosticks (@kingosticks) reported

    @Plusnet I've no signal at home all day. Works in other local areas. Any issues around W13 today?

  • LizzyLizUk Liz (@LizzyLizUk) reported

    @Plusnet Can you help me understand if there are problems in my area? I have no broadband since this morning. Thanks

  • CharlotteHermon mummy Charlotte 💗💕😍😍 (@CharlotteHermon) reported

    @Plusnet I'm having trouble connecting to the Internet I've paid for my first bill already

  • retsofnosila Alison 🌿 (@retsofnosila) reported

    @bpackingbongos @virginmedia I was pleasantly shocked when I was contacted by PlusNet before the end of our contract to tell us they were renewing it at £5 cheaper! Not often the price goes down!

  • YamahaMusicians Saul Hudson (@YamahaMusicians) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Ok, but how can it be "local" when the fibre for all providers here goes into the same box, which I can see from my window. None of the other people around here on Vodafone, Plusnet, BT, TalkTalk has their internet down. Why just Sky?

  • kathf19 Kath Frodsham 💙 (@kathf19) reported

    @Plusnet no broadband this morning in TA11 , is this an outage due to storms ?
