    @DannyCowanVO @Paul__Buckle @bt_uk @Plusnet @BTCare My advice... as soon as you leave BT, cancel your direct debit.

  • itconor itconor (@itconor) reported from Comber, Northern Ireland

    @internetsense @seatzie @virginmedia Plusnet last I checked where just BT, they also have a habit of putting customers behind CGNAT which means no public IP bad for gaming etc

    @nornirishfella Plusnet are woeful. My mum was with them until a few months ago, hated her WiFi. We were with sky but we maxed out at 35-40 most of the time, nothing they could do to make it faster. But only got Virgin in when we upgraded to a 65” TV & buffering became an issue.

    @Back_Two_Mee @Complyorcry Sounds wild. I go low low on all these things. Cancel ❌ them, move them. Talktalk or Plusnet (Plusnet is BT) use Now tv rather than Sky Sports etc etc

  • nigelivy Nigel Ivy (@nigelivy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @jasonsloan46 @virginmedia Landed up cancelling and going with Plusnet. I'm so over paying premium prices for subpar customer service & their product is so unreliable.

  • PaulReid74 Paul Reid (@PaulReid74) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @Paul__Buckle @DannyCowanVO @bt_uk @Plusnet I've been with Plusnet for several years now too, never had an issue (touch wood)... only issue was @BTCare refusing to believe that I had actually left them, and sending me emails threatening to cut me off, and telling me I owed them money for a service I was no longer getting.

  • AthanSpod Ath Athanasius 💙 (@AthanSpod) reported

    @rbiondin1 @Plusnet You're not alone. Mine's been down since around 10:35 this morning. Sync is all fine, but no routing, and bouncing the connection gives the wrong (RFC1918 !) IP. Phoned support and their opening message says it's a general problem.

  • Christo39186304 Christopher (@Christo39186304) reported

    @Plusnet What's going on? Somebody pulled the plug?? National blackout for your WiFi customers...not happy been down almost 2hrs now with no help what so ever..someone not paid there electricity bill? #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • carl_lawley Carl Lawley (@carl_lawley) reported

    Come on @Plusnet why is the whole country not being provided a service today....no official statement of why you are down and thank goodness for mobile hotspot on works mobile phone.....

  • lys136 lysanne (@lys136) reported

    @RickieTrades @Plusnet Maybe if an announcement was made advising of issue they wouldn't have everyone ringing. Its the pi s s poor communication which is causing the calls. I didn't attempt to call until I tried the website, and social media first. No ETA, no update to provide to my boss

  • Wolf__GB 🤖 Boop / Bop / Beep 🤖 (@Wolf__GB) reported

    @BigRatMedia @Plusnet Is your hub light still a solid blue by any chance? Mine is even though I can't connect to anything. Or check their service status page.

  • redmeister81 Chris (@redmeister81) reported

    @altrinchamhq @Plusnet There working on a fix now 👀. Don't know what's happened exactly but my router is connecting to a private ip address range.

  • JustCrac Just hear for the crac (@JustCrac) reported

    @NoodleD40194634 @Plusnet My contact finished yesterday so they are definitely getting binned now! Definitely slowed our internet down over time last 2 years. @Plusnet

  • heavygretel Heavy Gretel (@heavygretel) reported

    @Plusnet can you help? I am a business customer and can’t connect to broadband. All systems in my shop need Wi-Fi to work. Have been on hold for over an hour but can’t speak to anyone to help. Very frustrating as it is impacting my business, can’t take payments etc!

  • rabprentice Dave Welsh (@rabprentice) reported

    @Plusnet Can you provide some info re: the major outage today please? I work from home and cannot until this is fixed!

  • The_Chesh_Cat Cheshire Cat (@The_Chesh_Cat) reported

    @RickieTrades @Plusnet Rude because they probably don't have a clue what's happening, bit concerning that they don't have the right technical people on standby...
