  • Ohfishcakes Kraig Ⓥ 🌱🇺🇦 (@Ohfishcakes) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I was wondering if you could help me. I was asked todo a trace route by a video game company, and I need to check if the results are normal? One was done wired via PC and the other was done on my iPhone. Would it be okay if I message them to you?

  • ajcnichols Alison Nichols (@ajcnichols) reported

    @Plusnet It's not his broadband, it's his landline. An engineer was allegedly doing "something" yesterday but failed to fix it. My broadband isn't working. Nor is my mobile signal functional.

  • ajcnichols Alison Nichols (@ajcnichols) reported

    Another great day for @plusnet. My vulnerable dad still has no functioning plusnet landline. We currently have no Plusnet broadband, and my Plusnet mobile signal is so bad I can't make calls or use any data at home inside or outside. Deepest urban Buckinghamshire...

  • concernedoptom1 concerned optometrist (@concernedoptom1) reported

    @Plusnet is it possible to upgrade to Hub2 on adsl, currently have problems with WiFi stability

  • IL_Tenore Nigel Davison (@IL_Tenore) reported

    @Munross @Plusnet Same! I have had no end of reliabilty issues. There very quick to blame your setup too and in my case its always turned out to be either BT or the Service Provider that buggered it. Please for the love of God, give us the service we are paying for @Plusnet

  • cartoonelli Simon Ellinas (@cartoonelli) reported

    @Plusnet How long will the broadband outage go on for? I'm missing out on important work.

    @justwearmasks Aaaah, I was thinking about switching from PlusNet in the Autumn... superfast speeds and all that. I might do a bit of research now, just been told we can connect to the CityFibre network 👍
