  • nickhornbee Nicholas Hornby (@nickhornbee) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet hi my internet has been down since midday. Is there an outage?

  • RickyCarterna Ric (@RickyCarterna) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @plusnethelp broadband swap over due today, current provider has now disconnected, PlusNet service not initiated. Cannot reach your helpline to confirm switch over. Not a good first impression.

  • 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

  • tandleman Tandleman (@tandleman) reported from Middleton, England

    Getting fed up with @Plusnet who I have been with forever nearly. Every time it rains I lose my internet for a couple of minutes. When I log a fault they say it is fine now or monitor it for 2 days and close the incident. Of course it hasn't rained. Help!

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    @altrinchamhq @Plusnet Yes it’s down for me in WA14, I had tried everything and was so confused as was appearing connected on the router! Not good from them to provide zero updates.

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet The BT service obligations (USO) states that my postcode is capable of 10Mb speeds and therefore is not eligible for upgrade. However you can only supply sub 5Mbs service. Can you explain the difference in the two scenarios.

  • 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

  • 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

  • Siftah John Baxendale (@Siftah) reported from Manchester, England

    @adechapmanlaw Problem is their phone line is crap, so PlusNet (who they were previously with) also would never get the phone line sorted and they were left with the same crappy speeds. Have signed them up with Sky fibre for less than they were paying for ADSL!

  • Cavakaggy cavakaggy (@Cavakaggy) reported from Walkden, England

    @Plusnet mobile signal has been useless since Christmas, other users are also reporting this advise

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Plusnet My broadband should have gone live today. Internet from old ISP ceased at midnight. You promised me uninterrupted service. My wife had to take a days leave today as she works form home using MS Teams and could not connect. Awful service. How do I cancel?

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet I believe the minimum speed was added AFTER installation and after I contacted you. You have dropped my speed from the original 5Mb to around 1Mb as a response to each complaint I make. Perhaps the inferstructure should be investigated. Please forward me complaints email address.

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet you are the worst I ever used. I just want things to come back to normal so I can change ... never use #plusnet it’s the worst. Slow... expensive ... and no response if you call

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    @Plusnet is your service down currently in WA14? My internet has randomly gone off then showing as on but I can’t connect any device to it?

  • 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...

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    Zero communication or update on @Plusnet website about the fact the network is clearly down across the UK- you can’t even get a dial tone when ringing their customer services either. What is going on?!

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Stockport, England

    @Plusnet In your booklet that arrives with the router, you advertise 7:30am to 10:00pm. I call you for two occasions that don’t answer for 30 minutes each. At 8pm, it tells me customer service is now closed. What terrible service. Your billing systems work great though

  • nebzy17 nebzy (@nebzy17) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet Stop arsing around with this crap and answer my message to @plusnethelp - Why you got staff on football polls???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

    @Amanda_1979Xx Hi Amanda, thanks for getting in touch and I'm sorry you're having issues with your connection. From testing your line, while we're showing no external faults; I can see a high number of disconnections over the past few days. -Tony Plusnet Sheffield

  • PatrickRabot7 Patrick Rabot (@PatrickRabot7) reported

    @VodafoneUK I am trying to switch from TalkTalk and seems like I can't take my number which I've had for more than 20 years. its on the openreach network. if I try to sign up with Plusnet I can take my number. Why is it not possible with Vodafone

  • garyvince1981 Gary Vince (@garyvince1981) reported

    @Plusnet My internet speed in the Swanley area is very slow this morning any reason for this?

  • westhampete West Ham Pete (@westhampete) reported

    @Plusnet please can you help. My Mbps speed has been dropping down to 2.0 mbps and disappearing completely before coming back to normal speed repeatedly for a couple of days now.

  • cameronzzzzzzz Cameron Watts (@cameronzzzzzzz) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, can you please fix my internet. It’s been over a week. Spoken to multiple people and you can’t even tell me when you’re gonna send an engineer. This is very poor service.

  • tamikonatsu Amy Duffield (@tamikonatsu) reported

    @Plusnet Only thing I can't do is check phone as I've never had a landline phone due to no need for it. Router has always been plugged into the master socket (it's only around 5ft from master socket to my PC).

  • tamikonatsu Amy Duffield (@tamikonatsu) reported

    @Plusnet Previous notes from the two engineers that came over might help with more information on what was done etc.

  • BearlyAwakeLion Steve (@BearlyAwakeLion) reported

    @talkSPORT “Breaking news: Around Yorkshire PlusNet internet access has gone down. Everyone’s been Googling Jesse Marsch! Who is he?!” That’s relegation sorted then (Bob Bradley part 2)

  • tamikonatsu Amy Duffield (@tamikonatsu) reported

    @Plusnet Not sure what you can access your end, but I did have an issue a few months ago relating to external cabling (general wear and tear on covers etc). Not had another disconnect since around 10:48am. Did have to restart router to get back to normal speeds though
