    @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.

    Today : A few more boxes from the shed in the recycling. Doing boxes here too! Zumba Gold & Seated Zumba Gold & cycling there & back. Sunny & 1% rain. Call plusnet to cancel phone for The House. Bath, reading, ukulele.

  • jenwolves Jenny Vaughan (@jenwolves) reported

    Seems disconnecting the existing broadband and then failing to install the new service is a 'feature' of @Plusnet. Waited in today from 1pm - with the threat of £65 missed appt charge - nine hours later, no engineer, no internet! @PlusNet can talk the talk but not walk the walk

  • CotyHS2 Ian Moss (@CotyHS2) reported

    Hey @Plusnet. Been waiting 10 minutes for a page to load. Your ****** service?

  • HamiltonG95 G-RACE (@HamiltonG95) reported

    Can't wait to get rid of @Plusnet and switch to Giganet. So tired of not being able to play games because of bad lag. Drives me mad.

  • johnleedsroad John Sinclair (@johnleedsroad) reported

    @Plusnet Good morning. I have been having issues with no network since Thursday 26th. I've had a new SIM and been in contact but with no resolution. Would you know how this is progressing. I don't really want to buy a phone from Tesco , as was suggested. Thanks, John

    @Plusnet Plese advise how to disable WMM on hub 2. I have been advised that doing so will stop problem with airplay streaming to HomePod.

  • athenamae04 athena mae valencia (@athenamae04) reported

    @Plusnet i bought a new sim card from you and received it yesterday. i cannot send text messages but i can receive them. on my settings it says “verifying” but when i click on it says there’s an error. i’m wondering if there’s any way you can help me?

    @Plusnet Desige your promise that we would have continuous wifi during the changeover, here we are without any. Really helpful for work. No voucher yet, charged for 2 months with no service, connection date moved 3 times (now on week 6) had to beg Sky to keep us on..
