    @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?

  • 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.

  • 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."

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

  • 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 🙄

  • 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.

  • gold123win reg morris (@gold123win) reported from Neston, England

    Just why does my #VPN security has a problem verifying @Plusnet security onthe internet Just whois playing games with my life long gap of inactivity of hours being switched off My mobile phone was attacked on April 1st only on Friday switched back on BTGroup admit your part #Marr

  • 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

    @plusnet internet is down in the CW8 area.

  • 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

    We need answers to the crisis in Telecoms #Scams & #Fraud Nobody in the media wants to report the scandal Yet more #Victims join the list daily My query is BTGroup& Open Reach + @EE & PlusNet needs to be broken up as soon as possible It has a a too cosy relationship with @Ofcom

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

    @BBCWatchdog Sales Line versus Customer Service; check out Standard Life and @Plusnet. Sigh.

    @Plusnet I have never received such an abhorrent service from any provider. To be constantly lied to and spun round in circles. Which has now led to a loss of earnings. @Ofcom @BBCWatchdog

    Anyone else having terrible intermittent internet connection with @Plusnet this morning? Disconnects every 5 minutes. Completely unusable. #plusnet #plusnetdown

  • ZZleeZZ More Fun Making It (Lee) (@ZZleeZZ) reported

    @wcrpaul I have backup WiFi on a separate router with openwrt installed. That was just because the last plusnet router was so bad. 2 to 3 drops a week requiring complete reboot.

  • filosofical_140 Ben Samuel (@filosofical_140) reported

    @Plusnet Dear Lauren, whatever plan I may or may not have agreed to, Plusnet have broken their side of the contract simply by failing to provide any service for months.
