    @plusnethelp I’ve been in contact with your help desk about my Emails being blocked by Plusnet from my Domain (123reg). Apparently you are aware of this issue & have a team working on this problem. Could you pls let me know when the problem is resolved.

  • Shaunmc40 Shaun Mc (@Shaunmc40) reported from Liverpool, England

    8 yrs with @sky no problems one month with @Plusnet billing issues. If you are thinking of switching to them give it a miss.

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @craigr98_2016 @shornnno @Bigdav333 @LederRaptor @SkyUK Down detector is a website that gives you a rough idea about outage issues etc. So can be useful as a way to see recent issues but all I can say is bt own plusnet ...

  • Paul_crannee Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @Plusnet I need to contact someone on behalf of an elderly family member whose router has stopped working, completely! No email and currently no live chat to help resolve. Please advise asap, thanks. DM me if necessary, thanks.

  • CroftJackie Jackie (@CroftJackie) reported from Up Holland, England

    @plusnethelp Someone called me back and then passed me onto a helpful lady. This has helped resume the internet but not the bad feeling we now have to Plusnet. We had the worst day ever being spoken to be such a rude, arrogant and pompous man who spoke spoke so rudely to myself and daughter

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

  • SarahDixonHE Sarah Dixon (@SarahDixonHE) reported from Liverpool, England

    Best internet provider? Currently with @Plusnet and they are absolutely terrible. Can’t connect phones to the WiFi and the signal goes about 1m in the house and what you can get is slow as anything 🙄

  • Cavakaggy cavakaggy (@Cavakaggy) reported from Walkden, England

    @Plusnet mobile signal has been useless since Christmas, other users are also reporting this advise

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @plusnethelp just so you are aware plusnet have places ILLEGAL restrictions onto my account again and it is now my intention to take this issue further .. another disgraceful example of plusnets arrogance and utter lack of customer consideration !!!

  • lynnwarbo lynn warburton (@lynnwarbo) reported from St Helens, England

    @DonaKempton @SkyUK @Plusnet Well sky rent bt technology and plusnet are owned by bt so when I check .. for example .. down detector I always check bt status too ..

    @MDOG_Manchester @O2 @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK @bt_uk @EE @giffgaff @Plusnet @SkyUK @Tesco I’m with @EE and never had an issue

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Mmm. 2 days loss of service in a week. Not good. Maybe I'll speak to that nice chappie in Sheffield at PlusNet or maybe get BT Sports for free with BT Think you can do better tbh Voda do a cheap deal too...

  • ukpayrollserv Duane James (@ukpayrollserv) reported from Frodsham, England

    Over the past 10 days we are experiencing at least one incident per day of the router losing connection ..generally comes back on after about 2 minutes but have never had this before @Plusnet

  • ChrisBr41449425 Chris. Bracken (@ChrisBr41449425) reported from Warrington, England

    @plusnet @plusnethelp You've left my elderly, shielding parents without a phone line for 48hrs now, and nothing is being done. I sat for 45mins on hold this morning to call you, and couldn't get through. At this stressful time, this isn't good enough! Any chance of a solution?

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    PHONE LINE DOWN Please bear with us. Our @Plusnet phone line has gone down. Divert will take at least an hour to be activated. Feel free to message us on here. Apologies, we are looking for a more reliable supplier as we speak.

  • Cleary1David David Cleary (@Cleary1David) reported

    @MarcAllera Good afternoon Marc, Hope all is good for you. I'm a new Plusnet customer hoping to be connected to your @Plusnet service . Customer service is very poor and certainly not first class or award wining. My connection was supposed to happen on Dec 11th.

  • Lisadroof Lisa hannan (@Lisadroof) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband is rubbish, it’s the openreach main socket. Who comes to fix it?

  • Eloise933 Eloise (@Eloise933) reported

    Worst internet provider ever @Plusnet - have been trying for months & months to get a decent internet service & they are incapable of sorting this out - excuse after excuse. Final straw, no decent internet over the Christmas. You can stick your service (or lack of) from now on!

  • HelloNikDesign H E L L O I M N I K Design 🖍 (@HelloNikDesign) reported

    @TimGander @virginmedia I am with Plusnet, they’re good for customer service - but I think they’re owned by bt now lol

  • Clockworkpoodle James Bedson (@Clockworkpoodle) reported

    Day 16 without any internet, and @Plusnet don't seem to be too motivated to solve the problem. Countless phone calls and two engineer visits and still no internet. I find it difficult to believe any issue could take this long to resolve.

  • ojabling Jane Abulume (@ojabling) reported

    @plusnethelp terrible wifi service since I signed up. Wifi seems to be shockingly slow or non existent. I can’t seem to get plusnet on the phone to talk to them about it. Their chat service is not working eithe. I’m the only one in the house. The service is not acceptable

  • scottgoodacre Scott Goodacre (@scottgoodacre) reported

    @nathanlawsn We left BT for PlusNet. It’s literally the same network, rebranded, often with free line rental offers on. So we effectively stayed with BT while saving £20 per month.

  • LisavHeereveld Lisa van Heereveld (@LisavHeereveld) reported

    @nathanlawsn Plusnet used to be really good for customer service but it's gotten really shitty. I'm switching away from them. Probably to talktalk because they have a good deal on but no doubt their customer service is equally ****

  • Peterminto1 Peter minto (@Peterminto1) reported

    @Plusnet my connection has slowed down to the only just useable point. No good for movies. Seemed to start when 2 channels popped up when i look fo wifi. I have no neighbours so they are both mine. The second is the same number with _ AC at the end.

  • mattglondon Matt G (@mattglondon) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp there appear to be issues with the service any advice?
