    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

    @pnuttuk Hi there, I'm sorry to hear about the issues with the broadband. So we can take a further look into this, are you able to confirm the Username via a DM please? - Curtis, Plusnet Sheffield

  • jonbarony John Barony (@jonbarony) reported

    @Plusnet @Ofcom Although the issue was fixed by myself, there is still no explanation of why a customer would have to reset there router password when a person password hadn’t been changed by myself across any part of the plusnet network until it was needed to be done regarding router

  • jasoneddings1 Jason Eddings (@jasoneddings1) reported

    @Plusnet can anyone beat our record for non functioning home internet? July 14 2021 and still flashing as not working. I have RSI of the ears from hearing we have logged a fault. #uselessplusnet

  • braintumourlady Hev 💙TheNHS (@braintumourlady) reported

    @Plusnet you helped me out a few weeks back as my internet kept dropping. It seemed to work for awhile but has started again. Have done the usual checks and my mobile phone seems to be ok. Could you help again?

  • OliverT1998 Oliver Taylor (@OliverT1998) reported

    @Plusnet Hi Tony, I have tried it on both wired and wireless. The timings also seem to vary with the packet loss in the sense that some days it’s all good and others it’s bad. Or it’ll be stable for say 30mins and then all of a sudden pings go up and packet loss happens

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @jonbarony Hi John, I'm really sorry about the issue and just glad it's been resolved. Please feel free to send us a DM with your username if you'd like us to look into it or if there's anything further we can help you with at all. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • ElleMay44 Elle May (@ElleMay44) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, having issues with plusnet WiFi yet again. I have tried to look at fault checker but the message says not available. Any help would be appreciated.

  • DanielF03641808 DF (@DanielF03641808) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I have DM’d you, however I have already connected the new router ready and it is working with the currently internet package/speeds I am on, I hope this isn’t a problem?

  • jasoneddings1 Jason Eddings (@jasoneddings1) reported

    @Plusnet @Plusnet the irony of it all. Seems your own internet must be down as you have stopped replying in the DM. Hope you don’t have to wait over 2 months to get it back on. Good luck
