    @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.

    @CaraLisette @EE I switched from EE to Plusnet sim only (who use the EE network) a long time ago and so much cheaper. £10 a month for 30GB of data and unlimited texts/minutes. Of course, depends on what you need/use but for me saved a lot every month.

  • Fenchurch4221 Dr. Rosie ♿ (@Fenchurch4221) reported

    @Plusnet switched over to fibre yesterday but new router never arrived and now we have no internet - please help!

  • craig13mcc Magic Cram Crock (@craig13mcc) reported

    @Plusnet Hi guys, my broadband speed has been significantly lower than what I'm expecting and paying for over the past 2 night. How much longer should this continue for before I can raise an issue/complaint? Cheers C

  • carrianne2208 caroline soul (@carrianne2208) reported

    @plusnet. Your website reports no issues but a few times today, my Internet has gone off for 15-20 minutes. Resetting hub doesn't work. Not impressed. Trying to study on my tablet and WiFi keeps going off! Training website doesnt work on phone!

  • tho78450 Tanya Ho (@tho78450) reported

    @Plusnet Showing your "compassionate side" won't work, when Plusnet's customer service (so called) is so poor. Why bother to reply to an aggrieved customer saying, "please DM me" without the link? Disingenuous or what??

  • hwoodiwiss95 Hugo Woodiwiss (@hwoodiwiss95) reported

    @Plusnet is there any way to track an ongoing incident on your network? My connection is impacted by an incident in my area, but the incident isn't show on your service status page.

  • SurreyBlue1967 APartridges Ideas Man (@SurreyBlue1967) reported

    @Plusnet my plusnet connection is unbearably slow for last few days, is there a fault.

  • sometimeish_ CREED (@sometimeish_) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam They say they’re going to cancel the order so I need @Plusnet to sort it out please

  • scott161 ⚒ Sir IronLion ⚒ (@scott161) reported

    @pipmadeley @Plusnet BT came round twice to the house and pointed the finger at internal wiring. Finally traced it to a line fault at the box down the road. I’m sure they would have tried to blame that on me too.

  • GrahamAuld2 Graham Auld (@GrahamAuld2) reported

    @Plusnet - any update on when I might get a working telephone service again... 2 weeks since you started looking into it and no news. Hopefully when the bill turns up you won't be attempting to charge me for a service you're not supplying?
