-
Dave Evans (@rdt_daveevans) reported from Sheffield, England@bt_uk This is some of the best customer service I have seen! “Although Plusnet use the same Openreach lines and they can provide an SLT of 80/20...At the moment there is not availability in the BT slots in order to move your SLT to 80/20...” time to give up and switch!
-
Helen Royles-Jones (@_HelenJones_) reported from Sheffield, England@plusnethelp Hi, the initial contact was with the support team and the support team told us they would be in touch with a date for an engineer which didn’t happen. As it happens we’ve now left Plusnet and joined Sky broadband
-
Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England@Plusnet 2 new sim cards ordered. Only one received today and the changeover is due to happen tomorrow therefore could be a full day without any service. Why only 1 received when ordered both the same time??
-
Wendy Kirkland (@JazzKittenWendy) reported from Chesterfield, England@Plusnet we're having problems with our @btsport channels through you. All the other channels are fine
-
Magnus Shaw (@TheMagnusShaw) reported from Chesterfield, EnglandHey, @Plusnet @plusnethelp people. I have fibre broadband with you guys specifically for watching movies (Amazon Prime). But I'm getting such slow speeds from you, it's ruining my viewing. The speed I'm paying for would be nice, gents.

Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England@johnnytwoscoops @Plusnet Try this if on Android: Apparently: Settings, Mobile Networks Network Operators Turn off Select Automatically Scan Networks Click on the Network Mine is ok now
-
Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England@Plusnet I've only just moved over to Plusnet from years with Vodafone. Let's say it's not a great start to being with you. I required help on Thursday and not today.
-
Fiona Radford (@feefee2410) reported from Harthill with Woodall, England@plusnethelp my broadband is consistently slow. Please can someone check the connections? Anyone else struggling with @Plusnet recently?
-
Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England@maburgess8 Plusnet that runs off EE. I'd understand if I wasn't receiving any service but I'm able to use it without any issues except from receiving calls and text messages. WhatsApp, Facebook messenger etc. no problems at all. Strange
-
Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England@Plusnet I can send texts but not receiving any. Help please!!

#StayHomeSaveLives WEAR A MASK😷 (@julie_marsden) reported from Sheffield, England@Plusnet hi wonder if you could help, my internet is constantly going off. Please help.
-
Jon Smith (@jonsmithinfo) reported from Chesterfield, England@Plusnet is your network down? lost my broadband connection about 30 mins ago and can’t get back despite several router reboots. @plusnethelp 😨🙏🏼
-
Hannah🌻💛 (@hannahloufrench) reported from Sheffield, England@UniHomes please help us with our internet instead of not offering a solution and referring it to your internet team again 🙃 I’ve spoken to @Plusnet and the issue is you giving us the wrong details ! And the wrong information! Sort it out! Please!!!
-
Kelly (@kelly_tengi) reported from Sheffield, England@Plusnet It was caused by the FTTP trial. The IP changed when the new service went active.
-
Andy 🇺🇦 (@kitcub) reported from Chesterfield, EnglandTotal outage this morning thanks @Plusnet. They claim "the line from our network to your home is working" but we've reset our router, and over 2,500 on downdetector also report a total loss of internet via Plusnet. That's a lot of houses to have problems internally at once! 🙄
-
Craig ⚛︎ Marston (@CraigMarston) reported from Sheffield, England@AndyWoodturner Oddly enough, we were with Plusnet for years (they were proper reyt local like). No problems until that bunch of muppets bought them and slowly started breaking everything…
-
Martin Tune (@_martint81) reported from Laughton-en-le-Morthen, EnglandMy internet switchover day from @TalkTalk to @Plusnet is today. My internet service was cut off early hours & I'm being told it can take up to midnight. Most switching info says a few hours, but this'll be possibly 24 hours? Disapointing. Glad I've switched on a non-working day.

Sarah Robinson (@sarah_robohague) reported from Newbold, England@Plusnet ....charging £230 to a 90 Yr old who has had to go into a care home due to alzheimers. Yes we have asked to end the contract early, but surely due to the extenuating circumstances you have some policy in place to help our elderly. @alzheimerssoc @ageuk
-
Gavin Wood (@Woodgavaroo) reported from Conisbrough, England@Plusnet I have had no service for the last 2 hours in Conisbrough. Is there an outage?
-
Emma Chapman (@emmachapman74) reported from Sheffield, England@plusnet called to cancel my contract, wish I’d got his name but he answered like he worked in a takeaway, not at all bothered or tried to make me stay. #joke #plusnet

Andy Bowes-Roden = = (@AndyRoden1) reported@mark395625 To be fair to Plusnet, it's not responsible for the network. But it can see the connection dropping like crazy. That would suggest strongly it's not fixed. So why claim it is when it self-evidently is not?
-
Michael Corbett (@kobb) reported@Plusnet I'm very happy with my PlusNet broadband and I've been with you many years but this aspect of your customer support is crap. My options seem to be: a) phone and wait 20mins+ or b) phone and wait 20 mins + Hmmnn... 🤔
-
Michael Corbett (@kobb) reported@Plusnet Hi, you didn't read my message. Your phone service has 20 min + wait time. How can I send you a query in a message? Thanks for your time. 😐

Richard (@visitandtravel) reportedI just signed up for Starlink - finally gave in, the EE 4G has been broken for 3/4 days - now basically running on candle power - back onto the fallback BT copper broadband @ Plusnet - 3MB connection and costing me £28 a month on a 1 year contract - a lot more for the standard line rental and broadband if I do not take the 1 year contract. So now as I am in Caithness 3 miles away from a telephone exchange I need to pay EE for semi-decent 4G broadband when it works, and BT through Plusnet to have a working telephone for emergencies if 4G fails - as it does. And yet I still have the emails from the Scottish Government from over 8 years ago saying everyone would be on fast fibre connection by 2020 or around that time. I checked with Openreach and they have no intention of laying fibre to the property even though they can get access to a Government grant of over £4,400 to do so. A company, Highland Broadband is busy taking these rural fibre broadband grants and doing their best to get the north of Scotland rural and small towns connected - I am signed up for a 1GB fibre connection - supposed to be getting installed this summer - I just cant wait that long so - yet another expense for a poor pensioner (me) having to pay out for yet another broadband connection with Starlink. As I am in contract to Plusnet (BT), EE I can see if Highland Broadband do deliver the fibre by July - I will have 4 contracted broadband accounts until the contracts run out. If Only the Scottish Government had kept to their promises I would only need to have one connection.

Xenomorph (@xenom0rph09) reported@Plusnet They placed order and started complaint. I will call back tomorrow to ensure order gone through and you do everything to get open reach to activate before weekend. Otherwise I will be very upset

Craig Jump (@Craig_Jump) reportedHow is reporting a line fault for an elderly, vulnerable neighbour a GDPR issue ?, Plusnet refused to take the number and log a fault due to GDPR, I was not asking for any personal info.. just wanted them to log a fault #bonkers #nocommonsense @Plusnet
-
Not Only, But Likewise (@notonlybut2025) reported@Plusnet My phone is broken - dropped in the bath. This is why I'm reaching out here.

DaftApeth 🐦 🕊️ (@madanna69) reported@AlexanderGaeta6 @Plusnet it's been bad for us most of the 22 months we've been with them. switching in april - not worth the effort keep complaining
-
Frog Princess 🐸 (@TheDivineFrog) reported@SamiC0hen @Plusnet Oh no Sami, that sounds terrible, was there any minimum term on your rental property? And has your work company given you any indication how long you’ll keep your jobs for? My heart goes out to you, what a big worry 😞
-
Amie Bakewell (@BakewellAm58145) reported@Plusnet That wasn't advised & there isn't anything the chat can do seeing as they couldn't help on the phone until 8am Saturday apparently
