  • 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. 😢

  • groundhopper80 groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

    @Plusnet hello help signal is on and off for the last hour.

  • 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

  • kevinefcduffy Kevin Duffy (@kevinefcduffy) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet Honestly Emma, It's a catalogue of errors left right and centre and then made worse with awful customer service. It's been escalated.

  • 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!!! 😩

  • 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?

  • 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...

  • katiemaeox katie (@katiemaeox) reported from Westhoughton, England

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

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

  • kevinefcduffy Kevin Duffy (@kevinefcduffy) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet absolute disgrace! Messing my friend around, broadband speed 0.7mb and not 30-50mb as agreed, then want to charge £250 in the cooling off period???? Some of the worst customer service I have ever seen!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

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

    @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!

  • 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

  • sa1tmer Dave S (@sa1tmer) reported

    @markwalshuk @Plusnet Same here but SMS now working # dreadful service

  • HaydnGlass Southern Don (@HaydnGlass) reported

    @Saintstepgar I never had a problem when I had sky broadband. Switched to plusnet and it happens a lot

  • alanh47 Alan H (@alanh47) reported

    @Plusnet Some of us had a problem with our email accounts today. Lots of old emails being resent multiple times to our inboxes, emails dated before 23 May 22 missing from our Webmail inboxes etc. We have raised the topic on the PlusnetCommunity Forum. Can someone respond please?

  • PaulbernalUK Prof Paul Bernal (@PaulbernalUK) reported

    So the resolution for my aunt is who to give hundreds of pounds to: @Plusnet or @BTGroup, for a problem caused by them. Oh, and they’re actually the same company.

  • alanrew Alan Rew (@alanrew) reported

    @PaulbernalUK @Plusnet @BTGroup I've missed the earlier part of this story. Sounds horrible. Dealing with BT can be a nightmare. Leaving aside the resolution/compensation of the current situation, what's the cost/feasibility of leaving these service providers? For internet & phone, better service is possible.

  • ZoeMontgomery66 Zoe Montgomery (@ZoeMontgomery66) reported

    @WhichUK I’m with Plusnet and I wish they would offer a social tariff but I rang up and they said they have no intention of offering one. I could switch to BT but their customer service is notoriously bad.

  • NoSheds No Sheds 💙 (@NoSheds) reported

    @PaulbernalUK @Plusnet @BTGroup That's terrible. I hope they offered compensation, but I bet they didn't. For what it's worth I offer sympathy. Thanks for the info.

  • Samueltennant Sam Tennant (@Samueltennant) reported

    @Plusnet Hi! Happy FTTC customer here, but I've seen gfast is availableat our address. I appreciate Plusnet don't offer gfast plans, but it seems mad for me to Leave Plusnet to use the same cables and get gfast with your Parent Company, who DO offer it! Any suggestions?

  • sa1tmer Dave S (@sa1tmer) reported

    My move to @Plusnet mobile was a bad one, signal strength poor compared to EE who I thought was the same network provider. Also lack of Wi-Fi calling is well hidden in T&C
