    @Plusnet ..so someone can just make a claim on my BT landline and cancel my broadband.. and it will take 10 to 14 days to reinstate..

  • susie_oc SusieOC (@susie_oc) reported

    @jesse_mukisa @emrudgee Me too! A month after promised connection date SE unable to connect or give timeframe so contract cancelled. Now they're cut me off from CURRENT supplier Plusnet by failing to tell Open Reach to halt migration and are not helpful in getting issue resolved. Avoid @shell_energy
