    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Pauline54232922 Pauline Turner (@Pauline54232922) reported

    @MaggieP31069 It sure is. Some service providers have a blocking service. I'm with Plusnet but I've now used up my allowance. I've recently bought a new landline phone which can block calls but I haven't tried to do yet. It makes my brain hurt!

  • mick3950 Michael Wilde (@mick3950) reported

  • Oppor_tunix Opportunix (@Oppor_tunix) reported

    @Plusnet how do you expect me to pay bill online when you’ve disconnected my business broadband service? That’s right folks don’t choose Plusnet for business accounts. I using public wifi to sent this because my business broadband has been shut down for £27 unpaid Bill

  • photogog put it in the bin (@photogog) reported

    @plusnethelp I’m due to switch to plusnet soon. Do you contact my existing broadband supplier and cancel their service?

  • sadattheworld sadattheworld (@sadattheworld) reported

    @OpenreachHelp Plusnet have supposedly been in touch since last Friday and I still see no fix on the horizon. My work contract ends next month. I need to be finding more work. But with no broadband I’m stuck in limbo. It’s incredible that it can take so long.
