    Don’t ever get @Plusnet broadband! Tried to cancel within 14 days of it going live due to it being absolutely useless, to then be told the cooling off period was from when I signed up!! 🤬. (Had to switch the WiFi off to tweet this)

    @virginmedia how do I cancel my broadband account without being left on hold for 1 hour so I can go a better company like @Plusnet ?

  • WestfieldWoody BenC (@WestfieldWoody) reported

    @ItemLevel1 @plusnethelp @Plusnet I've investigated quite a few companies doing rural fibre but none have a project running in my area. They want you to drum up the support then they might consider it. Could always approach a land agent about putting a 5g cell tower somewhere on our farm

  • FPL_PANTHER FPL Panther (@FPL_PANTHER) reported

    So @Plusnet / @plusnethelp I have been let down by Virgin Media not getting back to me and decided to go with you after being recommended... only thing is it says it takes 10working days to transfer...can it be done quicker? I move in to my house on Friday and only ordered yest?

  • BrookfieldMiles itzmilxs (@BrookfieldMiles) reported

    Wifi has been going out every day for the last week and a half, I'm on plusnet and I was told that it was going to be fixed on the 25th, help @plusnethelp @OpenreachHelp

  • jonslats48 Jon Slater (@jonslats48) reported

    @Plusnet is there any remote chance of actually getting in touch with you to make working from home actually a thing for me?? Shambolic customer service. Get a grip!!

  • MijMike MijMike (@MijMike) reported

    Still waiting for @Plusnet to listen to a phone call where they told I'd owe em about £20 upon leaving. Instead been charged about £60 and had no contact from them. Got sent to a debt collector. DO NOT go with plus net. Advise everyone to avoid. Horrible customer service.
