  • CroftJackie Jackie (@CroftJackie) reported from Up Holland, England

    @plusnethelp Someone called me back and then passed me onto a helpful lady. This has helped resume the internet but not the bad feeling we now have to Plusnet. We had the worst day ever being spoken to be such a rude, arrogant and pompous man who spoke spoke so rudely to myself and daughter

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Mmm. 2 days loss of service in a week. Not good. Maybe I'll speak to that nice chappie in Sheffield at PlusNet or maybe get BT Sports for free with BT Think you can do better tbh Voda do a cheap deal too...

  • ChrisBr41449425 Chris. Bracken (@ChrisBr41449425) reported from Warrington, England

    @plusnet @plusnethelp You've left my elderly, shielding parents without a phone line for 48hrs now, and nothing is being done. I sat for 45mins on hold this morning to call you, and couldn't get through. At this stressful time, this isn't good enough! Any chance of a solution?

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    PHONE LINE DOWN Please bear with us. Our @Plusnet phone line has gone down. Divert will take at least an hour to be activated. Feel free to message us on here. Apologies, we are looking for a more reliable supplier as we speak.

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

  • punchymcslap Punchy McSlap ✍️ Drawn to Procrastination (@punchymcslap) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @Plusnet 24hrs without internet now, any sign of a fix?

  • jwilson_trinem James Wilson (@jwilson_trinem) reported from Southport, England

    Internet disconnects late every evening; probably the worst internet provider I’ve suffered to date.... @Plusnet

  • LisaWeeks9381 Lisa W (weird mum of 2) 💪💖 (@LisaWeeks9381) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @craigr98_2016 @shornnno @Bigdav333 @LederRaptor @SkyUK Down detector is a website that gives you a rough idea about outage issues etc. So can be useful as a way to see recent issues but all I can say is bt own plusnet ...

  • KironReid Kiron Reid (@KironReid) reported from Liverpool, England

  • Ed_Manning Ed Manning (@Ed_Manning) reported from Birkenhead, England

    As for @Ofcom I suggest the home move process is reviewed and special attention is paid to the relationship between the network operators and the retailers. Perhaps other providers such as @BTCare and @TalkTalk and @Plusnet could tell me whether they could do any better. 14/END

  • Shaunmc40 Shaun Mc (@Shaunmc40) reported from Liverpool, England

    8 yrs with @sky no problems one month with @Plusnet billing issues. If you are thinking of switching to them give it a miss.

    Best internet provider? Currently with @Plusnet and they are absolutely terrible. Can’t connect phones to the WiFi and the signal goes about 1m in the house and what you can get is slow as anything 🙄

  • gordy_fraser Gordon Fraser (@gordy_fraser) reported

    @Plusnet why, when you closed my account because of poor service, am I still expected to pay for 2 weeks because “your system” takes that long to close an account. Fine let a court decide who should be paying the £19 then!

  • Wesley95475528 Wesley (@Wesley95475528) reported

    @Plusnet I still haven’t had a reply back from you. My internet speed is really slow, that I’m struggling to send emails. Your contact number does not ring. I was about to renew my contract with for another 18 months. I might as just cancel and pick another provider.

  • lloydyc0 lloyd (@lloydyc0) reported

    The most terrible customer journey I have ever experienced! @Plusnet @lstrafford 2 weeks since installation and still not connected! Over 10 hours of my time on hold waiting to be spoken to. Very very poor service. Worst decision I have made 😐

  • hart_lawrence Lawrence Hart (@hart_lawrence) reported

    @Plusnet your customer service and systems are an absolute disgrace!!

  • RichP53477206 Rich P (@RichP53477206) reported

    @Plusnet Are you having DNS issues with mobile internet? I can't view heaps of websites using the 4G. Everything works fine on the non-Plusnet landline. Thanks

  • sarahnova19 sarahnova19💙 (@sarahnova19) reported

  • messalinahooper grace hooper (@messalinahooper) reported

    Oh @plusnet here we go again with rubbish Internet- buffering- ruining my down time and work. You really are a very poor service provider and I'm changing suppliers

  • GemmaWaddington Gemma Waddington (@GemmaWaddington) reported

    Hi @Plusnet is their problems with the internet connection at the moment in Chichester area ?mine has been playing up since last week & I need it for being able to work at home

  • 2_Wheeled_Wolf @2_Wheeled_Wolf 🇪🇺 (@2_Wheeled_Wolf) reported

    FFS! It'll be easier to extract blood from a stone than getting @Plusnet to cancel a ******* contract! Have told them multiple times since 31st August I'm ceasing agreed contract on the 30th Sept as it ends that day & not want to renew it & they still haven't ******* actioned it!

  • KaJohnson99 Katherine Johnson (@KaJohnson99) reported
