    @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.

    @Plusnet Our broadband is going on and off and has been for a couple of hours. We have switched off and on...please can you help?

  • BC__RWB Brad Carter 🇬🇧 (@BC__RWB) reported

    @skalovingeek @Plusnet Normally you still have a manual control box connected to the boiler which can be used in the event of the wireless / or wireless thermostat not working. The hive wireless thermostat talks to the control box connected to the boiler. So the box can be used on its own.

    Hi @Plusnet, if EE and BT Mobile can offer WiFi calling why can't you? You use EE's network and your part of the BT group. I'd prefer not to switch as you offer a great deal price wise. But not being able to make or receive calls in my house is a big problem.

  • moiama25 amalia (@moiama25) reported

    @Plusnet are your services down? The WiFi here hasn't been working since 2pm today.

  • richard01902 Rich Brewer (@richard01902) reported

    @Plusnet this last week we’ve had really patchy service. What gives?

  • Lincoln_Marks Lincoln Marks (@Lincoln_Marks) reported

    @Plusnet my Internet has gone down (South sheffield) I've been trying to fix for a couple of hours now. Texted in to your support number bit no response.

  • Chris4man Chris (@Chris4man) reported

    @Plusnet I know I can use third party apps, but someone ringing me doesn't know to ring me on one of those so I miss their call. If my number automatically diverted to WhatsApp then I'd be happy. I guess I'm looking for a new network then.

  • AndreaD3n Denzo (@AndreaD3n) reported

    @OwdAlbert Jeez, I have been using PlusNet for years, I have had good customer service from them 👏

  • JordanC93958853 Jordan Cooper (@JordanC93958853) reported

    @Plusnet So today would be a good day to have another crack at getting you guys to fix the broadband connection issues we’ve been calling about since the moment we had it installed? The award winning customer service team have been **** every other day, must have a new lad in 🤔
