  • KateRav66 Kate Ravenscroft (@KateRav66) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @plusnethelp hi, my service is due to start today and my old broadband has been disconnected but I haven’t had a text telling me my plusnet broadband is ready to set up yet. I have the router.

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • aracoroneld Araceli Coronel (@aracoroneld) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet could you please help me? I paid for your service more than 20 days ago and I still don't have internet. I'm calling but nobody is answering.

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • 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?!

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

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

  • aracoroneld Araceli Coronel (@aracoroneld) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet your service sucks!!

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

    @Plusnet internet has been off since yesterday please help?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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!

  • sean_mvm MacCárthaigh #FBPE #MVM 🇪🇺🇮🇪🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🏴🌹 (@sean_mvm) reported from Urmston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It's done. I'm now a customer of @Plusnet

  • 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.

    I Don't know why I ever went back to plusnet, nothing but trouble! Stay clear! @Plusnet #plusnet

  • planetf1 Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported

    @matt303 @Plusnet @zeninternet nope - they promise to keep prices same. Of course they are higher.. though better service (and niceities like static ip ipv6 etc). I'm very pleased I switched to them.

  • jonbradbury Jon Bradbury  (@jonbradbury) reported

    @highwaylass @Plusnet @plusnethelp 95% of the time it’s too many nearby routers all on the same channel. Change wifi channel at the router, or try disabling 2.4, or 5ghz, mine are all on the 5ghz, got a customer where have to set them all on the 2.4. Also some kit likes the 2.4 & 5ghz to have separate names

  • emmalou55 Emma Evans (@emmalou55) reported

    @Plusnet appalling service our internet is constantly dropping youve said you've fixed the problem but haven't. Constant issues with the phone line too. Working from home and he me schooling is challenging enough!!!!

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @andypoulton @Plusnet @plusnethelp Apart from this issue I’m very content with Plusnet, there’s no-one else I’d go to for broadband.

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @rhydsnewi @Plusnet @plusnethelp Sorry. There’s a 2,000 comment thread about it on the Plusnet forums, it’s clearly a system problem

  • highwaylass Highwaylass (@highwaylass) reported

    @jonbradbury Sorry, that was a bit abrupt. I tried all those steps which are recommended on the PlusNet help forum but they didn’t sort it; I had to factory reset the router. Now all is OK - until the next time. On the forum PlusNet mention a solution they are rolling out - hopefully soon.

  • katie4249 Catherine 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 (@katie4249) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @plusnethelp Woke up this morning to our internet speed dropping again. Even rebooting didn't help this time. So enough is enough and we have started the switch to Sky for broadband and mobile. Last 18 months with @Plusnet have been awful.

  • andypoulton Andy Poulton - SEO 🧢🖊️ (@andypoulton) reported

    @highwaylass @Plusnet @plusnethelp Then simply make your complaint in the manner I suggested but without the threat to end your contract. Mind you, if only 1 out of several devices can connect it's not much cop, IMO

  • dollielondon Dollie London (@dollielondon) reported

    @Plusnet I have no connection since Tuesday eve and can’t get through to customer support or online chat? I’m working from home and self isolating so please can you help. Thanks!
