    @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.

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

    @Plusnet Are you aware of any issues in the West Midlands right now? Getting significant timeouts and packet loss when attempting to browse the web.

  • Campaign_me Karolina Throssell (karolina@iden.global) (@Campaign_me) reported

    Avoid @Plusnet if you want internet. We've been having probs since start and now zero internet for two days but compensation only kicks in after 3 days no internet. If I want to cancel the useless contract, it will cost me £180! What a joke! #technology

  • DanLeBlanc01 Daniel Le Blanc (@DanLeBlanc01) reported

    Hey @Plusnet I dutifully called your helpline as directed by your website, but after 15 minutes on hold without so much as a queue counter, I’m not confident that my call will ever be answered. Can I get some help, please?

  • IIUKIIBADWOLF Deane (@IIUKIIBADWOLF) reported

    @JakDahlia Yh, had TalkTalk a few years ago. Internet stopped working after a year and they wouldn't do anything about it so went to plusnet, no problems with them.

  • chickateee SMB (@chickateee) reported

    ..@Plusnet I want to cancel my broadband as I have left the property but I can’t get through on your phone lines. No other way to cancel? Unreasonable barriers to exiting my contract?! Is that legal?? Should be much simpler.

  • SteveBerke1 Steve Berke (@SteveBerke1) reported

    @Plusnet I bought a new sim but paying your direct debit on another account so I wish to cancel my old direct debit.

  • littlerich27 richie lennon (@littlerich27) reported

    @Plusnet you really are the worst internet provider. As of tomorrow I'm cancelling my service with you. Awful awful awful. 0/10

  • Dorothy3737 Dorothy💙 (@Dorothy3737) reported

    @AndyWoodturner We're with Plusnet now. There is always a battle with BT. I said I would leave after their charges. New price still high. Left to go to plusnet and got a call to pricematch plusnet. Crazy. The worst thing is,plusnet is a subsidiary of BT. No need for this crap.

  • stucroker stuart croker (@stucroker) reported

    @bedfordyid @TheSamLockwood @CWUnews However if Plusnet staff are on a day off they can join the strike in support.

  • NewisRosalyn Rosalyn Newis (@NewisRosalyn) reported

    @umber_statement @Plusnet These phone companies all seem to be rubbish at sorting out what should be a standard process and apparently want to make money off people during the worst of times. Sadmin made harder.
