    @Plusnet my 80 year old, recently widowed dad signed up to your fibre services and the installation is incomplete - his previous provider is clueless and he is now 2 days with NO internet and struggling with no support from you!! Unacceptable !

    @Plusnet Not really aware winning customer service, not willing to fight and help a new customer with connection issues. Poor Poor Poor.

    @WeAreOpenreach @plusnet I had a full fibre installation on the 14th of August. The contractor from Morrison telecom left damage to the brickwork that should have been made good. A fairly straightforward fix. A claim was commenced to effect the repair. Claim btp112933 with ctd

  • petejackson1952 peter jackson (@petejackson1952) reported

    Had a bad weekend trying to watch sport on tv due to internet going down every 10 to 15 minutes. Reported it and the girl just told me to do what I had already done but her actionl took out my TV altogether, then PLUSNET had the cheek to take my money yesterday. They got to go.

    @WilsDavid @Plusnet Dave, no reply yet It is somewhat 'off' that their migration of email service to a third party should see paying users impacted in this way

  • ed_called ✞ 𝘾𝘼𝙇𝙇𝙀𝘿 𝙏𝙊 𝙎𝙀𝙍𝙑𝙀 ✞ (@ed_called) reported

    @Plusnet why have I & everyone else in my entire neighbourhood been without broadband for 3 days now without any sign of it being fixed? @bt_uk just get the issue sorted will you we are not living in a third world country for goodness sake!

  • citytransportin Simon (@citytransportin) reported
