    @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

    @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.

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet hi, my internet randomly cut out dead on 1am tonight and I haven’t been able to get it online since with various reboots, restarts etc. Can you please resolve ASAP as I work from home. Thanks.

  • EdMiliboob Ed Miliboob (@EdMiliboob) reported

    Do @Plusnet have a customer support email address? Don't fancy spending 45 minutes on hold waiting for them to do me proud.

    @Rob_J_Frost That's why I kicked them into touch. Bloody useless. The extra download speed isn't worth all the crap you have to go through to get a deal. I've switched to Plusnet fibre. Cost me £70 to have a new line in but that equates to 2mths VM and I'm now saving money as a consequence.

  • jonmgriggs Jᴏɴ (@jonmgriggs) reported

    The more I think about this the angrier I get about it. All it would have taken is one email with a confirmation of the date in and all of this could have been avoided. To say "it's done now, hotspot using your phone" is not good customer service, @Plusnet, it's really not.

  • Caz1987C yasir (@Caz1987C) reported

    @Plusnet internet been out all day. Why am I paying for this?! Have tried all reboots that u tell us to. It is your problem.

  • JaydeWolpert Jayde Wolpert (@JaydeWolpert) reported

    @Plusnet your service is horrendous. You promise certain speeds and when you don't provide those speeds, I must pay £65 for an engineer to come out. Why must I pay when you are not providing the service??!
