    @cbr1100xxmark Thanks for getting in touch, sorry to hear you want to leave Plusnet. Unfortunately we’re not able to cancel your contract here, please call 0800 013 2632 and my colleague will be able to help. -Anoush

  • keavaoloan Keava (@keavaoloan) reported

    @finduramit @plusnethelp @Plusnet Amit, we are in the exact same boat. I hope you can leave without buying your way out, as it’s unfair when you’ve been paying for months for an unusable service. Wishing you better luck than we have had with our fault questions (they stopped allowing us to upload updates).
