    @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 are sending an engineer out tomorrow afternoon, and they better be able to fix it!!! We haven’t even watched Emmerdale today, this is ******* bullshit.

  • tweetingralph1 Name (@tweetingralph1) reported

    @Plusnet absolutely awful service from Plusnet. Three weeks without any broadband. No one cares. No one fixes anything. No one takes responsibility to sort out problems. Absolutely terrible.

  • jonnybeazel22 j (@jonnybeazel22) reported

    @CHR15_MTB @ben_benjamin3 @virginmedia i had the exact same issue with Sky, couldnt match the offers being advertised elsewhere, i cancelled and also went over to plusnet.

  • CHR15_MTB Chr15_init (@CHR15_MTB) reported

    @ben_benjamin3 @virginmedia Did the same with mine, rand them. Best we can do is £55! Erm everywhere else is offering £25-£35 for the same service? Sorry, best we can do. Cancelled. Went to Plusnet. Two days later a phone call. Why are you leaving? We can match plusnets price if you stay. Too late. I genuinely don’t understand their thinking. Waste of time & money.

  • AmbroseJensen Jensen Ambrose (@AmbroseJensen) reported

    Seems that Plusnet is having an rare internet outage. I tried changing DNS which means it's not a DNS outage.

  • EBGBeee Emma B (@EBGBeee) reported

    @Plusnet Plusnet support couldn't help beyond reading out web pages I'd already visited, so had to use chat on Greenby instead. Actually seem to have got somewhere with that, tho' the solution implemented doesn't reflect well on Plusnet or Greenby.

  • Breeze123K breeze123 (@Breeze123K) reported

    @Plusnet I thought I had renewed my contract with Plusnet, now receive an email advising my contract has ended! Plusnet Website won’t even load to get help. Help!

  • ItsTaz1989 Taz (@ItsTaz1989) reported

    Is there a problem @Plusnet ? My internets not working.

  • SeanClarke17595 Sean Clarke (@SeanClarke17595) reported

    @Seanfrank Many thanks. I have WiFi calling with Plusnet ( the £44.did include a phone line ) so now also looking for VoIP provider. Problem there is I will need a UPS as no method of contact with 999 if power is down. Hoping Starlink supports WiFi calling?

    @Plusnet Naturally the only people actually responding to my tweets are scammers. Nothing new there. How embarrassing is it that the people faking being your company's customer service do a better job of pretending to help customers than you do actually helping them.
