    @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 Hello, having problems with my internet today, Somerset!

  • Pinklilycat Zinone (@Pinklilycat) reported

    A 50 minute phone call eventually made it clear that @Plusnet had never sent it. They promised to rectify that immediately. On the 26th I called again as I *still* had no router, and therefore no broadband. My parter works from home as was having to rely on a dongle which we had

  • robwills1987 rob wills (@robwills1987) reported

    @Plusnet This company gave me a 14 day notice to pay a bill and then when I called within the notice period they told me it had been passed to a debt collectors?! No way to speak to the manager just an endless trail of customer service reps who can’t help.

  • Orangeblossom78 Starry (@Orangeblossom78) reported

    @Plusnet why do you make it so difficult to cancel 30 day sim only contracts? Every other provider I've used has an option in the app, or on the website. I can't find anything like that anywhere on yours. How do I cancel??

  • robwills1987 rob wills (@robwills1987) reported

    @Plusnet Worst company I’ve had the displeasure of dealing with. Customer service is terrible and the internet barely worked

  • CastroTurner Mark Castro Turner (@CastroTurner) reported

    @Plusnet Top job cutting my internet off 1 month before I move address.. Really poor customer service.. finally admitted fault.. But it’s basically 10 days to reconnect..

  • Pazza_81 Pamela (@Pazza_81) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks for not replying. My dad has now had 2 phone calls with Plusnet to resolve this and had to give up after being on hold so long listening to dire music. No record of original call, hence no appointment. Horrendous service

  • LewieKong Lewie Kong (He/Him) (@LewieKong) reported

    @Plusnet The only reason I raised it is because your service has been impeccable since I joined back in January so it seemed a bit odd, but usual service seems to have resumed. Thanks for getting back to me though.

  • karenneemcnally KarenneeMcNally (@karenneemcnally) reported

    @MartinSLewis shout out to @Plusnet customer service great & upgrade within contract allowed saving me £10 month; every bit helps #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • Samathy_Barratt Samathy Barratt is funemployed (@Samathy_Barratt) reported

    I'd like it known that I think the Plusnet/BT HomeHub 5 is an excellent network device (if you're cheap, like me). Couldnt do this without two wireless radios!
