    @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

  • 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.

  • gemmacaddell86 Gem (@gemmacaddell86) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.

    @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

    @Plusnet I have a Hub One router but recently been having problems with it. It keeps switching on and off by itself thus interrupting the internet use Does this a couple of times a day. I have tried all your fixes Can I please have this replaced by one of your Hub Two routers

  • mapledelight69 Maple Delight (@mapledelight69) reported

    @IanDunt My question would be.. what provider has the least drop outs and disconnects. My #plusnet is shite and drops WiFi 5 times a night and takes 5 mins to reconnect. Garbage.

  • chordcatcher Chordie (@chordcatcher) reported

    Once again my internet is out. This is the 6th time in 2 days, wtf is going on with @Plusnet?

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @Carl27513 Hi Carl, thanks for getting in touch and I'm sorry to hear your nan is looking to leave us. To find out if she may be subject to cancellation fees, I'd recommend giving our Cancellations Team a call on 0800 013 2632; who can help find out for you. -Tony Plusnet Sheffield

  • patiki02 Chris patiki (@patiki02) reported

    @Plusnet hello, when are you going to compensate me for my slow broadband speed. I pay for the top package and have not been getting the promised download speed for many weeks.

  • rockest_lobster Rock Lobster (@rockest_lobster) reported

    I'm pretty sure at this point Plusnet have a policy of winding down your line speed until you complain. I'm paying for 80, it's currently syncing at 30 with a 21db SNR margin. It hasn't synced above 60 (minimum guaranteed is 59.6 or something) for 2 years.

  • AlexTodhunter Alex Todhunter (@AlexTodhunter) reported

    @Plusnet I can't believe an account which took me all of 3 minutes to sign up for, on the basis that it was flexible and I could cancel at any time, has taken 3 months to cancel!!
