  • tandleman Tandleman (@tandleman) reported from Middleton, England

    Getting fed up with @Plusnet who I have been with forever nearly. Every time it rains I lose my internet for a couple of minutes. When I log a fault they say it is fine now or monitor it for 2 days and close the incident. Of course it hasn't rained. Help!

  • Siftah John Baxendale (@Siftah) reported from Manchester, England

    @adechapmanlaw Problem is their phone line is crap, so PlusNet (who they were previously with) also would never get the phone line sorted and they were left with the same crappy speeds. Have signed them up with Sky fibre for less than they were paying for ADSL!

  • Cavakaggy cavakaggy (@Cavakaggy) reported from Walkden, England

    @Plusnet mobile signal has been useless since Christmas, other users are also reporting this advise

  • Porter__Face Richard Porter (@Porter__Face) reported from Halifax, England

    45 mins on hold to plusnet .. then a nice lady with the broadest Barnsley accent was very helpful #MyLove the problem is at the exchange as thought

  • adrianswimmer Adrian Hawley (@adrianswimmer) reported from Meltham, England

    @plusnet I'm trying to turn off the answer service via the online manage your account.... The account says an error has occurred "you can't change your products for the moment, you have an order which is currently being processed. Please try again later". 8 months it said this.

  • chickvonpea 🐣🐥 Sarah 🐣 🐥 (@chickvonpea) reported from Meltham, England

    @EmilyinYork @Plusnet "we'll do you proud" my arse. Dad had issues with them last year over his internet. Them and BT going back and forth blaming each other.

  • RickyCarterna Ric (@RickyCarterna) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @plusnethelp broadband swap over due today, current provider has now disconnected, PlusNet service not initiated. Cannot reach your helpline to confirm switch over. Not a good first impression.

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Stockport, England

    @Plusnet In your booklet that arrives with the router, you advertise 7:30am to 10:00pm. I call you for two occasions that don’t answer for 30 minutes each. At 8pm, it tells me customer service is now closed. What terrible service. Your billing systems work great though

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • goochy808 Peter Gough (@goochy808) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Plusnet My broadband should have gone live today. Internet from old ISP ceased at midnight. You promised me uninterrupted service. My wife had to take a days leave today as she works form home using MS Teams and could not connect. Awful service. How do I cancel?

  • nickhornbee Nicholas Hornby (@nickhornbee) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet hi my internet has been down since midday. Is there an outage?

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • Porter__Face Richard Porter (@Porter__Face) reported from Halifax, England

    Need to renew my broadband do I stick with @Plusnet or go to another provider .. in mind of that they all use @openreach network but @virginmedia I don't play online games

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet you are the worst I ever used. I just want things to come back to normal so I can change ... never use #plusnet it’s the worst. Slow... expensive ... and no response if you call

    @Plusnet @IM_org Garbage. Your customer support is 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet The BT service obligations (USO) states that my postcode is capable of 10Mb speeds and therefore is not eligible for upgrade. However you can only supply sub 5Mbs service. Can you explain the difference in the two scenarios.

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet I believe the minimum speed was added AFTER installation and after I contacted you. You have dropped my speed from the original 5Mb to around 1Mb as a response to each complaint I make. Perhaps the inferstructure should be investigated. Please forward me complaints email address.

  • claireish_rawr Claire (@claireish_rawr) reported

    @Plusnet Unfortunately I'll be moving to another network and staying there, moving elsewhere and then moving back is a lot of messing about and if I'm honest, I just can't be bothered. I also think it's a really bad policy to just cut off someone's phone at a time when they probably need

  • Sniper404uk Warren Richardson (@Sniper404uk) reported

    Hey @Plusnet how can I return this broken Plusnet Hub if you don't forward me a return slip :) ?

  • Barrybs1 Barryb (@Barrybs1) reported

    @MartinSLewis can you help I'm at the end of my tether. I went sim only from ee to Plusnet and my number should have been ported on 21 April. This never happened and to this date, if not on WiFi, I have no calls, data or texts just emergency calls. CEO no joy either.

  • mo_roodi Mo Djavanroodi (@mo_roodi) reported

    @sil I remember Vodafone did something similar. Honestly, I think the big providers are a bit of a rip off compared to the MVNO's. I switched to PlusNet from EE because they're basically the same network, I just pay a lot less!!!

  • angelusmalusuk SJ (@angelusmalusuk) reported

    @Plusnet This doesn't matter now, and has nothing to do with me wanting to cancel my switch.

  • ianbriscoe Ian Briscoe (@ianbriscoe) reported

    Credit where it’s due - @plusnet were incredibly helpful when I was helping an elderly neighbour who’d forgotten his password so couldn’t log in after switching from IE to Edge. And hold time was less than 30 seconds. Brilliant service.

  • emtothebee Marjory Brown (@emtothebee) reported

    Hey @Plusnet my mum, (a pensioner), has been trying to reach your ‘award winning customer service’ team by phone but can’t get through. She’s tried everyday last week & all day today to sort her bills because you’ve been over charging her. Give me a shout with your solution pls.

  • belle_codes Bella Ciao 💙🇺🇦💛 (@belle_codes) reported

    @itstidusbesaid Plusnet, they have been brilliant, especially the customer service.

  • 32bitwitch 32BitWitch ✨ (@32bitwitch) reported

    Internet issue unresolved. Feeling the need to scream into the abyss. Pretty sure that @Plusnet gave themselves those customer service awards. If you're thinking of changing broadband providers, for the love of God go elsewhere.

  • mo_roodi Mo Djavanroodi (@mo_roodi) reported

    @sil This is true... Ironically I chose PlusNet as mine because they're owned by BT, as is EE now, so I'm hoping (probably rather naively) that if there's a problem they'll be able to deal with it a little better since it's all "internal"!
