    @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 @plusnet I responded to your question online three days ago and still no reply. My router was dispatched 2/9 still not here and still no one will tell me when I will get it. Your customer service is rubbish. Can’t get through on the phone, no reply on social media or online.

    A month ago I changed my broadband to @VodafoneUK. A huge mistake. Polite support but all talk no action. How I wish I’d stayed with @Plusnet.

  • catrionacarter Catriona Carter (@catrionacarter) reported

    @Plusnet since Saturday 7pm ish I haven't been able to connect to data, make calls or text. So I can't phone your helpline. My phone just says 'EE - no network. Emergency calls only'. Can you please let me know how to get this fixed?

  • mikecbrady1 Mike Brady (@mikecbrady1) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I have a problem with my gmail downloads. When connected to broadband I frequently have to wait for mail to download even when it’s one I’ve previously read. When connected via Plusnet mobile it works normally! Any ideas?
