    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)

    Sadly I’m a @Plusnet customer so currently no internet. Hopefully have some tips for later in the day if the problem gets resolved.

  • karlwilliams Deadlight (@karlwilliams) reported

    Pretty disgusting that @Plusnet has been down for most (all?) customers across the UK for at least a couple of hours and they've refused to acknowledge it.

  • njoshi09 Nirav Joshi (@njoshi09) reported

    @Plusnet , when will I get my 'net' back? 'plus' keeping your customers updated of major issue issue like this will support your claim of good customer care.

  • OscarHardwick Oscar Hardwick (@OscarHardwick) reported

    @Plusnet it's all fun and games for the first hour of a national outage, but keeping quiet through the second hour is fairly poor form. Any kind of statement would be great.

  • SLawther Steve Lawther (@SLawther) reported

    @Plusnet - Not only is Plusnet emails and internet down here in Leicestershire, Your service status checker is also down - What use is that!

  • SyHawkes 𝓢𝔂 #RiseAboveHate (@SyHawkes) reported

    Come on @Plusnet flick your broadband switch back on. You’ve had 3+ hours already since your outage began. I’ll give you another hour before I take every opportunity to get the message out there about your abysmal service!!

  • itsPellit John Ellis (@itsPellit) reported

    @SoProJanet @Plusnet Been offline since 10:20 also. Just managed to get through to a technical advisor after an hour and 12 minutes of being on hold to let me know that they don't know where the issue is, but they're working to resolve it ASAP.

  • RickieTrades Rickie Fowler (@RickieTrades) reported

    @KevonH @Plusnet Me too. We’ve had connection issues for a couple of weeks now.

  • SouthsideTrekk1 Southside Trekkie 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄🖖🏻💖💜💙 (@SouthsideTrekk1) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @Plusnet been trying to get hold of someone for 2 hours now. Working from home today so have had to cancel appointments at short notice. Not a peep on here from you either. Please sort this!

  • siwilkins Si Wilkins (@siwilkins) reported

    Fascinated about when @plusnet will consider posting a tweet about their so-far 2-hour DNS outage to customers en-masse, rather than trying vainly to post an inadequate reply to each person who points it out individually
