    @Plusnet is your network down? lost my broadband connection about 30 mins ago and can’t get back despite several router reboots. @plusnethelp 😨🙏🏼

  • doddytyke 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??

  • doddytyke 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

  • micksteer Mick Steer (@micksteer) reported from Dodworth, England

    @Plusnet my new plusnet full fibre broadband is working ok but I cannot get a signal in all rooms. What can I do?

  • Woodgavaroo Gavin Wood (@Woodgavaroo) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @Plusnet I have had no service for the last 2 hours in Conisbrough. Is there an outage?

  • CraigMarston 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…

  • LucasJed Lucas Jedrzejak (@LucasJed) reported from Sheffield, England

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet The Internet is down today in Sheffield! Children can’t do school online and parents can’t do work! Can you please address the issue ASAP? It’s been down for over 2 hours now! Thanks.

  • romuloalex_ Romulo Alex (@romuloalex_) reported from Sheffield, England

    being in self isolation wouldnt be so bad if our internet werent so shit fix up Plusnet

  • rdt_daveevans 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!

  • _martint81 Martin Tune (@_martint81) reported from Laughton-en-le-Morthen, England

    My 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.

  • doddytyke 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.

  • feefee2410 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?

  • hannahloufrench 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!!!

  • suntattoo66 suntattoo66 (@suntattoo66) reported from Sheffield, England

    @Plusnet since 8th June mates mum has been unable to receive calls. Mates mum is having to shield. @Plusnethelp are not taking this seriously and fix it despite the fact this is a 79 year old lady living on her own. Disgusting

  • doddytyke 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

  • julie_marsden #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.

  • _HelenJones_ 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

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @sea_of_crises @Daemar1 @Plusnet Plenty of times we've been online late and it's gone down regardless. Only the other night we were watching Happy Valley on iPlayer (TV connected to router by ethernet cable) when connection dropped at the usual time. Had to watch last 10 mins on iPlayer app via mobile data...

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @David__Brunt @Plusnet Have got a smart meter but it was installed well over a year before this particular problem started. I can see it might interfere with WiFi but not sure how it would cause the DSL signal to repeatedly drop.

  • LeahWhitehorse Leah Whitehorse (@LeahWhitehorse) reported

    @gogolitzen @EE Also affected by same issue. Plusnet informed me yet BT shows no known issues on their site. It’s frustrating when these companies don’t provide updates. Hopefully will be fixed this afternoon.

  • TomABacon Tom Bacon (@TomABacon) reported

    @pipmadeley @Plusnet This is going to sound weird, but I had a similar problem, and it turned out to be related to my Sky Q box going to sleep! Had to change those settings. (I'm still working at 1am so it was most inconvenient...)

  • jmarks1970 John Marks (@jmarks1970) reported

    @Plusnet I have just been advised that Plusnet does not support short codes for SMS, which is what my bank uses to authenticate. Please can you tell me if this will be supported and when?

  • Richard50478103 Richard (@Richard50478103) reported

    @Plusnet Hi Plusnet - you’re losing 2 customers today after you are bumping up your prices, I was willing to live with the lack of wifi calling and lack of signal in my village for the cheaper cost of your plans, now they are going up I’m moving on

  • MtG_Sly Simon Wallis (@MtG_Sly) reported

    @Plusnet hi. Been having daily outages with my broadband. We use a phone line connection in the SS16 area. Can you advise on any works by Openreach or if there is a problem. Thank you.

  • erinsteph_x 😾😾😾😾 (@erinsteph_x) reported

    My stupidity + kinda poor wording by @Plusnet near caused a heart attack, email about a small price increase didn’t say “monthly price will increase by £1.15”, it said “price will increase by £1.15 a month”, and i briefly took that as every month being £1.15 more than the last 🙃

  • therealdrcj Clare Jones (@therealdrcj) reported

    @Plusnet - I’m not the happiest customer as my broadband has not been reliable. However, I’d like to give credit to Abdul who dealt with my issue today - he listened, empathised, suggested a solution then carefully talked me through the process. I felt valued. Hope it works!

  • Signedbysophiee Soph ✨🇯🇲 (@Signedbysophiee) reported

    In all my life I have never had such atrocious service as I have had with PlusNet. The absolute WORST broadband provider EVER! @Plusnet
