    @Plusnet any issues in WN8? Download has dropped to just above 1 over the past few days. Nothing seems to fix the issue. It’s painfully slow and well below what I’m paying for. Any help appreciated!

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    Last day of the season and @plusnet have well and truly let me down! Daughter unable to revise for GCSEs, wife unable to work, and I can’t watch the footie!!! 😩

  • 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...

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @Plusnet what is going with the service tonight … I switched to you being told your better … but nope crap internet still 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

  • 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.

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • 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.

  • 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 🙄

  • 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.

  • mrcflknr Marc Faulkner (@mrcflknr) reported from St Helens, England

    @Plusnet Very disappointed by the attitude of one of your agents when calling today with my Mum to change her payment details. She’s partially sighted and needs my assistance with reading details, yet this wasn’t acceptable and the woman was incredibly rude. 😢

  • KironReid Kiron Reid (@KironReid) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Plusnet Hello Emily & Plusnet team, just to confirm that when I arrived back on Saturday eve & my phone connected to the network,it worked for calls for the first time. It is now working fine thanks. Problem & mystery solved. So issue was not having connected in UK b4 going abroad. Kiron

  • 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.

  • jamesksowerby Sups Like a Sumerian. (@jamesksowerby) reported from Bolton, England

    It has been a rubbish online week with the internet down for hours, with @Plusnet still charging, and my relying on my mobile signal more than usual

  • 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?

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

  • bgerrans Benjamin Gerrans (@bgerrans) reported

    Hi @Plusnet, thank you for bringing forward my broadband install date by 2 weeks (much better than the month I was going to have to wait). The only issue is I'm not home that day, and there's no information on how to change the appointment to a time/date that does work for me.

  • Phl60214122 Drs Pill 💊 (@Phl60214122) reported

    @Plusnet the worst customer service I have ever had in my life. Please avoid at all cost .

  • CrowYogi Heather Dexter-Crow (@CrowYogi) reported

    @Plusnet hey there. We've just moved house & were told our fibre broadband would be connected (you've cut us off early). Broadband isn't switched on and the guy I spoke to didnt ring me back like he said he would. Annoyed that you're still billing me but not providing a service

  • rainbowclaire Claire Dunford (@rainbowclaire) reported

    @Plusnet hi, my husband's mobile has been out since about 4pm - just says emergency calls only. We're in SN10 area, is there a fault?

  • RusseldMcLean Russel McLean (@RusseldMcLean) reported

    @Shotsblog @vpeanuts @SkyUK They have been so good since I switched to them. We have had problems thanks to Openreach, but Plusnet themselves have been great at helping to resolve all of these. Would highly reccomend them.

  • Charlbeck71 Charlbeck Jewellers (@Charlbeck71) reported

    @Plusnet “Around 6 0’clock”? Close of “business”? We have been unable to take payments all day! Will adding a ticket fix the problem? You stated that an engineer would call to our property between 1-6pm yesterday. Is he lost??? Shocking service!

  • FenlonPhilippa Philippa Fenlon (@FenlonPhilippa) reported

    @Plusnet we’ve had ongoing issues with you since our first order at the beginning on September. 9 orders have been cancelled and we have been promised a call back on 3 occasions and they never happened. Should have heard today re further details of a new line but again no contact

  • mrsdavisdaniels rebecca davis (@mrsdavisdaniels) reported

    @Plusnet please can you call to cancel my account? I spent 1 hour 10 mins waiting to get through today before giving up. I also spent 45 mins Wednesday before I could speak to someone. My account ID is RDavis1
