    @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.

  • evans_chirrup Brenda Evans (@evans_chirrup) reported

    @Plusnet Can't open the login page using wifi from my phone, but managed to open it using data. Suggestions please?

  • Casarlach Seònaid Lafferty (@Casarlach) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp I am asking you to be proactive and reach out to a customer who has had to consistently (almost daily) chase you for 6 weeks to ensure you are delivering a service I am paying for (which you are not). 3/

  • lara27944545 lara (@lara27944545) reported

    @Plusnet I have been out of service since 17 November, I have been told that it is an outage but I am receiving no help. This was meant to be a 3 day outage but no help has been provided. Urgently need a resolution, the service is unacceptable and making me want to cancel!

  • GarethHill1 Gareth Hill (@GarethHill1) reported

    @Plusnet I wasn't the original poster, I was highlighting that terrible service by you not replying to her. Strange that you replied to me!

  • TenguPlaysGames James ‘the Owl’ Wise, #TeamMoM (@TenguPlaysGames) reported

    Seriously @Plusnet. Can you sort out a internet service that doesn’t go down multiple times a year. Not like me or my wife need the internet to work or anything. Or is poor quality service your brand now?

  • moss_jo Jo moss (@moss_jo) reported

    @MikeAmesburyMP @RoyalMailHelp what is happening at northwich sorting office? myself and family waiting over 3 weeks for mail, including a SIM card which has been resent by Plusnet 3 times to my Mum not delivered. Local paper says staffing issues, will we get our postage refunded

  • heartswells Kirsty (@heartswells) reported

    @Plusnet Moved house after 5yrs as a customer with you. Service was unusable - no fault, just slow. Cancelled after 3 days,moved to Sky (able to provide much better speed). Am now being charged £125 having been told cooling off period ended before I had even moved. Can you help?

  • ZuluFoxtrot7 ZuluFoxtrot (@ZuluFoxtrot7) reported

    @plusnet what is going on with your service right now?

  • Casarlach Seònaid Lafferty (@Casarlach) reported

    @Plusnet it’s been 7 weeks since I told you about my house move. Last week my router started intermittently working (7mbps download & 0.8 upload). Today you debited my account for a service I cannot use. I’m bored of calling everyday with no resolve. I don’t trust your service 1/
