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

    @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.

    @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

  • 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.

    @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.

    @Plusnet Are there currently service problems? Internet outage seems to be happening more regularly? Cambridgeshire area.

  • HoneymanLucy Lucy Honeyman (@HoneymanLucy) reported

    @itvMLshow help!! Plusnet error has left me with no broadband for over 1 week and still no fix! I cannot WFH so losing £1000/wk. They say not part of Ofcom regs for compensation!!! 😱

  • DamiAgunbiade Dami Agunbiade (@DamiAgunbiade) reported

    @KTindall @Safah_987 @OpenreachHelp If Plusnet haven't escalated the issue with Openreach then it probably won't be seen as a priority issue.

  • WestfieldWoody BenC (@WestfieldWoody) reported

    @ItemLevel1 @plusnethelp @Plusnet I've investigated quite a few companies doing rural fibre but none have a project running in my area. They want you to drum up the support then they might consider it. Could always approach a land agent about putting a 5g cell tower somewhere on our farm

  • LizB13 Liz Blake 💙 (@LizB13) reported

    @vantex24 @JohnLewisRetail @zeninternet According to JL, setting up a new broadband/ landline account is "a highly technical issue and so John Lewis Broadband / Plusnet are really the only ones who could address this issue." I wonder who else they thought might be responsible? Still heard nothing after 24 hours 😠

  • JJColeman704 J J Coleman (@JJColeman704) reported

    @plusnethelp My plusnet speed is terrible. I should be getting *minimum* 44mbps and am averaging about 8.4. This isn't what I signed up for.

  • foreverdenise61 Denise Sutcliffe (@foreverdenise61) reported

    @plusnethelp 210533916 this problem has gotten worse. Phone line is fine but broadband keeps failing, becoming a nightmare. If this is not fixed I will have to leave Plusnet as I work from home. Original problem was that the username on the hub had reset to setup@...

  • WestfieldWoody BenC (@WestfieldWoody) reported

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet three days of no service since the switch to you. This is impacting my work now. Absolute shoite

  • ItemLevel1 Romanx (@ItemLevel1) reported

    @WestfieldWoody @plusnethelp @Plusnet Not a bad idea if coverage isn't great

  • charlotte_sears Charlotte Sears (@charlotte_sears) reported

    @Plusnet can't get a WiFi signal in the bedroom! Any ideas on how to get one? No where else we can connect the router!
