    @Plusnet HELP! Our internet’s gone down, how can we get it up and running in the next 1 hour and 11 minutes before we open?!

  • 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.

    @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

    Mum says she has paid for this month. Either this is bullshit or plusnet are just this ******* bad. I've tried everything to fix this. I'm surprised it's allowed me on ******* twitter. I'm so angry right now everything is setting me up to fail.

    Hi I am trying to cancel my plusnet order only made 5 days ago and I can't speak to anyone..please help

  • PhosgeneStudios Jake W (@PhosgeneStudios) reported

    @Jonmitson @plusnethelp The routers do have a tendency to have a high-pitched/frequency noise. Plusnet are aware of this, and the issue only occurs when 5GHz is enabled. :)

  • BrianWGillespie Brian W. Gillespie (@BrianWGillespie) reported

    Whoever keeps giving Plusnet these awards for customer service needs to take a long, hard look at themselves

  • SteveDonovan1 Steve Donovan (@SteveDonovan1) reported

    @virginmedia Feedback from a colleague with exactly the same issue a few months ago - she simply resolved her problem by switching suppliers to Plusnet. Her problem solved. In the absence of any proper official technical advice from Virgin, I could perhaps take my 15yrs of custom elsewhere.

    @DrJessTaylor @skytv @EE Hi Jess, if EE doesn't work out give Plusnet a go. I've been with them for yonks. When you, rarely, have to call Tech Support you get straight through to a person, wow! They always do deals so don't go by the telly ads. Years ago they even remotely fixed my computer for nothing.

  • jamesstarsailor James Walsh (@jamesstarsailor) reported

    @plusnethelp I wonder if you could help me. I’ve just moved home & took my plusnet broadband with me. It was due to switch over today but as yet there is no service. What time does it usually activate by?

  • Social_Daisy Daisy Whitehouse (@Social_Daisy) reported

    @NorthWestNosh We use Plusnet in our airbnb and they seem pretty good customer service wise.
