  • 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

  • jonsmithinfo 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 😨🙏🏼

  • 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?

  • kelly_tengi Kelly (@kelly_tengi) reported from Sheffield, England

    @Plusnet It was caused by the FTTP trial. The IP changed when the new service went active.

  • 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!

  • sarah_robohague 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

  • _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.

  • 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?

  • doddytyke Doddy (@doddytyke) reported from Penistone, England

    @Plusnet I can send texts but not receiving any. Help please!!

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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!!!

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

    @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.

  • 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.

  • FredCoates1999 Freddie Coates (@FredCoates1999) reported from Sheffield, England

    @AdamDickinson01 You’re too kind but it’s all down to Plusnet!

  • 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.

  • kitcub Andy 🇺🇦 (@kitcub) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Total 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! 🙄

  • 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??

  • 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…

  • ServSupp Tom Milner (@ServSupp) reported

    @Rhyno_24 Even though they are owned by BT, I switched from Sky to Plusnet and have never had a single problem. Sky are well known to throttle your connection if you download a lot. No problems like that on Plusnet!

  • fashionpansy Char (@fashionpansy) reported

    @LankyCarGuy I’m with Plusnet... 99% of the time I find them prompt and actually sort the issue. I don’t tend to deal with insurance on the phone only email / online.

  • BenRatcliffe86 Ben Ratcliffe (@BenRatcliffe86) reported

    @Plusnet WHY DOES MY INTERNET KEEP DIPPING OUT EVERYDAY FOR **** SAKE!!!!! YOUR SERVICE IS ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS!!!!!

  • babblingbates Tony Bates (@babblingbates) reported

    @NottArchaeology @Plusnet To be fair this seems to be an @OpenreachHelp issue affecting a number of providers, although most seem to be reconnected now. Still very frustrating, you forget how much you rely on your broadband

  • _jonb No longer the man I once was (@_jonb) reported

    @allyc375 @Plusnet Best of luck. If you have any problems let me know. I'm not proper IT support but I have form for fixing @mikechitty's successfully

  • lori_sutton lori sutton (@lori_sutton) reported

    @Plusnet please help. I can’t watch anything other than live tv as everything constantly buffers.

  • PaulWestlake Paul Westlake  (@PaulWestlake) reported from Bedford, England

    Looks like PlusNet is down again. Can you confirm @plusnethelp @Plusnet - Modem reboot worked earlier, but not now.

  • jen_millie jenni rose (@jen_millie) reported

    @Plusnet We have no Internet or phone line because of plusnet and the only way we get to speak and see our family is via wifi, when will the issue be sorted?

  • lucyjkhan lucinda khan (@lucyjkhan) reported

    Now sent telephone engineer not Broadband engineer still not working @Plusnet

  • Hyena_1953 Invitroveritas (@Hyena_1953) reported

    @MartynStead @mathie_dan @SuzieBl83459521 Online website 'stopfundinghate' says worst offenders are Plusnet, Virgin Media, Sky, Three, EE, BT, GiffGaff O2. and I spot a lot of Tesco on the front page.
