  • jeremy_slegg Jeremy Slegg (@jeremy_slegg) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @Plusnet I want to cancel BT Sport on Sky as I no longer have Sky and just keep my BT Sport App please advise how to do this many thanks

  • CllrAsimMahmood Asim Mahmood (@CllrAsimMahmood) reported

    @Plusnet really disappointed. You guys have messed up my number port for my mobile and I’ve just learned you’ve cancelled my broadband because you think I have 2 phone lines at my house. Ever hear of contacting the customer before doing something so drastic?

  • arnold_hamish Hamish Arnold (@arnold_hamish) reported

    @blogmywiki I had issues with Giffgaff all summer. I'd have full 4g signal but no data anywhere with lots of people -capacity issues with masts perhaps? As an aside, I've switched to Plusnet mobile. They use EE and are much better and cheaper.

  • edfoggin_ed Ed (@edfoggin_ed) reported

    @Plusnet hi I wish to cancel my mobile contract but I’m not going to another provider - how do I cancel without ringing you

  • AndyKendrick_UK Andrew Kendrick (@AndyKendrick_UK) reported

    How the hell @Plusnet keep winning awards 4 broadband customer service is beyond me, basically just been told that my router which only allows 10 devices 2 connect 2 it is used by other customers so put up with it or buy another router at ur own cost!

  • KarenSethuraman Rev Karen Sethuraman (@KarenSethuraman) reported

  • atc_ldn AC (@atc_ldn) reported

    . @plusnet wife in hospital with critically ill 1 year old. Need to increase data from 4gb to 20-30gb immediately. Your adviser was useless offering 2gb or 4gb bolt on. Really poor experience. You didn't do me or you proud today. You just lost a customer. #WellDoYouProudNOT

    @Plusnet I was with Plusnet for years. Great service. Then they changed and seemed more interested in new customers than existing. Oh, it also took much longer to get through to them, even before the pandemic. Needless to say, I’m no longer with them.

  • DonnaC08 Donna (@DonnaC08) reported

    @Plusnet Someone, somewhere was aware of this issue days ago though - its taken me having to call daily to get to this point!
