    @Plusnet Had a band and we tried real hard Jimmy quit, Jody got married I should've known we'd never get far #StartTheSummer

  • 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

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

    @jolliehaybowes @Plusnet Cancel the direct debit. "I'm sorry plusnet, my account seems to be working fine."

  • SarahDixonHE Sarah Dixon (@SarahDixonHE) reported from Liverpool, England

    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 🙄

  • 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.

  • Paul_crannee Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @Plusnet I need to contact someone on behalf of an elderly family member whose router has stopped working, completely! No email and currently no live chat to help resolve. Please advise asap, thanks. DM me if necessary, thanks.

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, 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

    @Plusnet Hello Emily & Plusnet team, just to confirm that when I arrived back on Saturday eve & my phone connected to the network,it worked for calls for the first time. It is now working fine thanks. Problem & mystery solved. So issue was not having connected in UK b4 going abroad. Kiron

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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...

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @DonaKempton @SkyUK @Plusnet Well sky rent bt technology and plusnet are owned by bt so when I check .. for example .. down detector I always check bt status too ..

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

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

  • cathmcgovern1 Cath McGovern (@cathmcgovern1) reported from Widnes, 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.

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @Plusnet what is going with the service tonight … I switched to you being told your better … but nope crap internet still 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • 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?

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @thatPoleLouis @Plusnet Contact ofcom asap ... there is policy that if an isp have not upheld their side of their contract they CANNOT charge a cancellation fee .. but ofcom can help better x

  • ukpayrollserv Duane James (@ukpayrollserv) reported from Frodsham, England

    Over the past 10 days we are experiencing at least one incident per day of the router losing connection ..generally comes back on after about 2 minutes but have never had this before @Plusnet

  • Superspurs1000 Gazinho (@Superspurs1000) reported

    @jesuisunhananas @VOXI_UK Yes I'm leaving for plusnet for that reason. Not that the PAC code works or anyone can understand in customer service what my issue is. Shocking

  • bickypeg Peggy Breckin 🇸🇾 🇵🇸 (@bickypeg) reported

    @Plusnet You seem to be charging us for breaking the contract. But as I said my husband should really have contacted you long ago to say there was a problem. Had become impossible for us to babysit on various days when sons were here homeworking, trying to have meetings etc.

  • SammieNova Sammie (They/Them) (@SammieNova) reported

    @Plusnet Hello, my internet has been going on and off for the last 10-15 minutes, is there a problem in Runnymede/Surrey?

  • aerialtyke Aerial Tyke (@aerialtyke) reported

    @MSE_Deals Too late for this time but, in future, if you're already a Plusnet broadband customer, click the relevant button and get an extra 2GB.

  • bickypeg Peggy Breckin 🇸🇾 🇵🇸 (@bickypeg) reported

    @Plusnet It's been poor ever since we moved in nearly a year ago. It's been appalling the last few weeks. Can't imagine why my husband didn't keep phoning you to tell you it was down every day. Anyway made a unilateral decision and cancelled our subscription and joined Sky.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @bickypeg Thanks Peggy. I'm sorry to hear that it has been poor this whole time and I completely appreciate why you've decided to join another provider. Please let me know if there's anything that you'd like to discuss in the meantime. Regards, Emily Plusnet Leeds

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @NATTBradfordian I'd advise your grandpa to give us a call on 0800 432 0200, if they're unable to help over the phone then they may be able to organise something for him. - Curtis, Plusnet Sheffield

  • jane_bolt Jane (@jane_bolt) reported

    @OpenreachHelp @Plusnet Okay, purchased a property and decided to join Plusnet broadband 20th April 2022. Still no progress from Plusnet or Openreach, apparently now with 'frames management', whatever that means? Very frustrated customer, 7 weeks no progress !! More push needed?

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @craftycrusader Hi Monique. I'm so sorry to hear that you've had problems when trying to sign up to us! We'd definitely like to have you as a customer. Please can you try from a different browser or device, if you've not done so already? Regards, Emily Plusnet Leeds

  • NATTBradfordian N.T-T 🐗 🇵🇸 (@NATTBradfordian) reported

    @Plusnet do you do a WiFi set up service for the elderly? My grandpa's received his new router and has no idea what to do with it? We're a bit far away to do this for him.
