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

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

  • cattt82 Cat Taylor (@cattt82) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland

    @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.

    Saturday night to enjoy tv with willow not here and plusnet not working, awesome

  • PatrickMBelfast Patrick (@PatrickMBelfast) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Plusnet Hi. I seem to be having more and more problems connecting to my Wi-Fi in the Attic. Is there something you or I can do to improve my signal up there? I keep hearing about Wi-Fi extenders. Can you provide me with one?

  • 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

  • ThinkingBlue Zos (@ThinkingBlue) reported from Antrim and Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @Plusnet I don't know how many more calls I can make that go unanswered. How many more times in a day my router needs reset. I'm paying for internet that doesn't work nor help that never comes

  • 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.

  • internetsense Philip I Wilson (@internetsense) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @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

  • melly_phoenix drawntosew (@melly_phoenix) reported

    @Plusnet 45 minutes left for your advocate team to contact us after being promised at 8am that they 'had' to call us the same working day, 3 weeks no internet, appalling service @WeAreOpenreach @Ofcom

  • Sarah_RedMeeple Sarah (@Sarah_RedMeeple) reported

    @pemlife @Plusnet LOL that sounds about right.. I actually understand service problems, they happen, but less so companies making huge profits that wash their hands of direct financial / employment impact on their customers because 'you signed the small print'.

  • PeteSutton Pete Sutton (@PeteSutton) reported

    @Plusnet Found a fix - Tried Opera, couldn't connect, suggested I try prefs/system/'Use DNS-over-HTTPS instead of the system’s DNS settings'. Worked straight away, same computer, same router

  • HansenKatja Katja Hansen (@HansenKatja) reported

    @Plusnet our WiFi keeps cutting off. Is this a router problem or area wide issue? I'm in Moray Scotland

  • Jacdee2017 Jac2017 (@Jacdee2017) reported

    @Plusnet Promised to keep us updated, this is has not happened. Say they will call us back, this has not happened. Customer service non-existent.

  • gceccles Graham Eccles (@gceccles) reported

    Hey @plusnet and @Screwfix Have you two fallen out? Can’t load the @Screwfix website. Worked fine a couple of weeks ago. Various on-line forums say it’s a DNS server issue between the two of you. Any suggestions?

  • Sarah_RedMeeple Sarah (@Sarah_RedMeeple) reported

    @pemlife @Plusnet And that I have to sit on hold for hours to sort this crap or know what's going on. There should be an immediate email if they're even an hour late saying what's happening and apologising. Not silence until their pissed off customers ring them up because they can't work.

  • pemlife Nicola (@pemlife) reported

    @Sarah_RedMeeple @Plusnet I got £8.40 for mine being out for 4 days. I spent £30 in that time on extra data. (Not plus net) Also to add insult an engineer turned up on day 2, started looking at the issue and then packed up and left as he realised he should have been next door.

  • Jacdee2017 Jac2017 (@Jacdee2017) reported

    @Plusnet plusnet state great value service; what service is that! It’s non-existent

  • pemlife Nicola (@pemlife) reported

    @Sarah_RedMeeple @Plusnet Same. We got told an external engineer was needed as the issue was at the exchange box, so we wouldn't need to be here. Luckily we were in as the engineer turned up at ours. But I had to call to check as online just showed 'engineer requested' with no date/time.
