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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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??

  • 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.

  • 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

    @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

  • 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…

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • _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.

  • 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.

  • 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!!!

  • 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! 🙄

  • 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.

  • KatieEvans13056 Katie Evans (@KatieEvans13056) reported

    @Plusnet my download speeds are terrible, your advisors are rude and condescending, and nobody has got back to me about my complaint. It is terrible customer service and I want to leave but your exit fees are ridiculous.

  • Barbara07549007 Barbara Rivers (@Barbara07549007) reported

    @EE why is it impossible to speak to a manager? Are they frightened or simply don’t care. 2 elderly people in remote position shut down phone and Bband from Plusnet which worked but hasn’t connected to EE. Nobody appears concerned.

  • David7970361915 David (@David7970361915) reported

    @Plusnet there is problems in the iv7 area low low speeds help

  • dancludlow Dan Ludlow (@dancludlow) reported

    Well Done. EE is a wholly owned subsidiary of BT, and is being used as its main marketing arm. Plusnet is another, more at the budget end, and with fewer strings to its bow. Finally, Openreach is another subsidiary that installs and maintains the network for all suppliers, so it has a degree of autonomy.

  • iffatshahnaz Iffat Shahnaz (@iffatshahnaz) reported

    @Plusnet I live in the EH6 area of Edinburgh and my WiFi is not working. Can you please advise. Thank you

  • lucyerber Lucy Erber (@lucyerber) reported

    @wmarybeard @VodafoneUK Firstly you will be entitled to compensation-won’t help you now I know but I ended up with nearly 1 free year from Plusnet for something similar. But you can attach your mobile to your laptop and run that from the phones 5G. Google it for instructions how

  • nw_nicholas Mr Ethical (@nw_nicholas) reported

    @Plusnet when will I receive my automatic compensation for lack of service?

  • templeton966 Jayne Templeton (@templeton966) reported

    @Plusnet is there a problem in #coulsdon area? We are losing WiFi every half hour and sometimes more?

  • G6JPG_ jpeg. Let's have 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 in news! (@G6JPG_) reported

    Calls asking about roof insulation. (Repeatedly asking "what is the name of your company" makes them hang up [they pretend to be some body].) Calls show number if I dial 1471, but if I try block it (1572 option 1 with PlusNet), "unknown". Come on, @Ofcom. Make telcos block these

  • fraserboyd fraserboyd (@fraserboyd) reported

    Absolutely sick of @Plusnet every time I am travelling. Email servers block everything when you're not on your own broadband connection. Continual problems sending and receiving msgs to some gmail accounts as well. Never been fixed in years. @plusnethelp
