    @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.

    @Plusnet yo, Internet connection has been down since 1am. ONT has all lights green, swapped out router and cables to no effect. Has the authentication method changed?

    @ParrotLegal @Plusnet Grrrr...I can relate to the frustration, had similar issues with Southern Electric a few years ago.

  • DeborahTaylor3 Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported

    @virginmedia Finally after 25 minutes, complaint raised and closed and passed to someone who finally gave me the information required. Information that should've been sent via email or postal mail. You seriously need a designated customer service contact number like Sky, BT, Plusnet, EE

    @Plusnet I telephoned your sales department to enquire about broadband deals and your representative refused to provide any information because I wouldn’t give me date of birth. Stated he needed to get into the system to provide any information re at all. Disgusting service.
