    @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.

    @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

    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.

    @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!

    @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.

    @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

    Champions League - 4 goals in first 12 minutes I think. Missed them all though thanks to useless @Plusnet service and waste of money BT Sport subscription. Only one mobile phone on in the house and got fibre. Can't wait to get away from Plusnet - avoid at all costs

    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

    @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!!!

  • 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

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

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

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

    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! 🙄

    @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

  • 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??

  • JazzKittenWendy
    Wendy Kirkland (@JazzKittenWendy) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @Plusnet we're having problems with our @btsport channels through you. All the other channels are fine

  • FlowerP79667758
    Flower Pot (@FlowerP79667758) reported

    @Plusnet Day 6 now of no internet. Open-reach dug up the pavement last Wednesday no internet since. We have contacted Open-reach and Plusnet. Told Tuesday is the earliest an engineer can come out. We do everything on line ,banking, health, paying bills etc etc. Communication with family and friends. We have no landline. Through no fault of our own no help from either Open Reach or Plusnet. Our neighbours have not been affected . I am using mobile data but I assume for security reasons I am unable to pay bills via my bank. To be without the internet for so long in this day and age is a serious customer failure and one that should be taken seriously by service providers.

    @JoshCF_ Try plusnet they are owned by BT but you would get new customer offer.

    Mark Crowther (@MarkTWIC) reported

    @Owramgirl @bt_uk I'm considering Vodaphone if price is the main concern, Plusnet is also on that list. Zen if I decide to pay more for a company that seems more customer focused. All are cheaper than the best offer from BT.

  • btc8500
    Jason (@btc8500) reported

    @Plusnet I’ve spoken to the team and they told me to change the channels on the router but the problem is you don’t actually supply hardware with the capability to do the speed over Wi-Fi. So unless I buy an adapter to my phones and tablets the speed is POINTLESS 😱😱

  • gingerlegs747
    Gingerlegs747 (@gingerlegs747) reported

    @SBarrettBar @zeninternet Same with Plusnet, i switched from Vodaphone when i tried to get in contact with them as my broadband went down as did my telephone and it took them 2 weeks to even reply. No phone numbers were answered by them.

    @Benleo Awful shower to deal with. So relieved when I finally got shot of them and got a simple deal with PlusNet

    @Plusnet Done this several times over the last few weeks and the problem still persists. Robots and no humans. Disgraceful service. Already put in place moving to another service.
