    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)

  • RobL_L Rob (Yes a 3am vaccine shot is fine by me) (@RobL_L) reported

    I live in a two bedroom flat (albeit a fairly spacious one) and my plusnet router wifi doesn't make it more than 15ft without significantly dropping speed. Does anyone else have this issue? Same for my mum in her house. Had to buy a mesh system. Do I need to buy one too?

  • bhavikharia Bhavik Haria (@bhavikharia) reported

    @plusnet - we've had the worst experience with you over the last few weeks moving over from another provider. Meant to go live on 9th (and the previous provider cut us off) and we've just been given excuse after excuse every single day. No solutions just excuses! @plusnethelp

  • hancoxrg Richard Hancox (@hancoxrg) reported

    @Plusnet 2/2 as I pay my bill in advance you will owe me + the crap broadband and customer service. Shite company, shite service. #plusnet_are_crap

  • desauld Des Auld (@desauld) reported

    @plusnethelp I have been reporting intermittent Wi-Fi connectivity (from several devices) for several weeks now, Plusnet support checks have shown no issues, the router WAP is VERY intermittent. The router shows it is connected and the Ethernet connected devices work.

  • Whitehughes Susan Whitehouse (@Whitehughes) reported

    @plusnethelp We have already done this several times and been told you don't know what the problem is. On one of these occasions we made an appointment for an engineer to come who didn't show up. We are now leaving Plusnet.
