  • GazPottsy G:Potz (@GazPottsy) reported from Morpeth, England

    @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 The lack of information and this cut and paste response is not something I feel is consistent with a company with “award winning customer service”.

  • Malc_Armstrong Malcmite (@Malc_Armstrong) reported

    @Plusnet @thisannoyedme Cobblers. My router says I have internet but now none of my online apps work anymore. Your fix is an absolute joke. I cant even sign in on them. This is terrible customer service

  • Malc_Armstrong Malcmite (@Malc_Armstrong) reported

    @Plusnet @rabprentice Nothing online is connecting currently. Cant login or access online apps. Truly abysmal service.

  • Malc_Armstrong Malcmite (@Malc_Armstrong) reported

    @AmyTurner1316 @outagedetect I can barely access the net on pc. Nothing connects. Even the plusnet webpage is broken. No online apps work, completely broken service

    @raty06 Hi there, earlier today some customers experienced problems accessing their emails and accounts in Plusnet Member Centre and connecting to their broadband service. We worked quickly to resolve this and we’re very sorry for the inconvenience caused. - Curtis, Plusnet Sheffield

  • svw71_w Sarah V W (@svw71_w) reported

    @Plusnet why does your engineer fault bot ask me to type “next” to book the next available appointment but then FAIL to tell me when that might be????? I have a business to run. You’re not picking up phones either. Appalling customer service

    @jcollinscareers @Plusnet They don’t keep to their promises of callbacks as I’ve now found 3 times this week. Currently on hold to cancel

  • billymcdafthead Billy (@billymcdafthead) reported

    Utterly disgraceful service from @Plusnet Called to cancel. Refused to speak to me as an Authorised User. Told me they would call my mum straight away… 1 hour later still no call. Now my mum has to call back to cancel. Utterly disgraceful company. Avoid

    @plusnet Seriously, your entire Sheffield team needs to step back from this insipid copy+paste response fiasco. Not only are you failing to provide any meaningful update, you are actually making it harder for us to see if the problem is ongoing or now an individual one.
