  • goochy808 Peter Gough (@goochy808) 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • LeanintoDesign John Grimshaw (@LeanintoDesign) reported from Oldham, England

    @RischDesigns @fittdr @virginmedia @Plusnet @NOWTV @emmerdale @LoveIsland @ASBO_Allstar I'm on 350 which is great but the router let's it down, the old superhub2 had much better firmware and an easier UI.

  • 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...

  • 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

  • micahscotttt mary queen of thots 🥦Ⓥ (@micahscotttt) reported from Manchester, England

    Bit **** how I’ve been on the phone to plusnet around 6 times now regarding my broadband which isn’t working and after failing to phone me back like they promised yesterday they finally report it as a fault in the line which could take 3-5 days to be addressed.

  • John_Eccles John Eccles (@John_Eccles) reported from Diggle, England

    @PatrickJDiamond @bt_uk I moved to plusnet fibre it’s been great. I was with EE and it was shockingly slow.

  • 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

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

    @Plusnet I tried all you ask me to try... you are the worse network ever. You expensive you slow and you basic. On this lockdown you were terrible... but still can merge with @VodafoneUK that charge 7 pounds for a call they didn’t pick up ...

  • stachini82 Gareth Stachini (@stachini82) reported from Manchester, England

    @code_sean @bt_uk Happened to me earlier this year so switched to @Plusnet, similar service but cheaper.

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

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

  • ShawnLorenzoo Shawn-Lorenzo (@ShawnLorenzoo) reported from Manchester, England

  • chefstuartburt stuart burt (@chefstuartburt) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp Andy baker you should be ashamed of the service you offer. new customer 5 weeks in and still jo broadband £50 for nothing. £65 for an engineer and I have to take a day off and it will be another 2 weeks...oh £190 to leave!!! a joke!!!

  • chrisahulme chris hulme (@chrisahulme) reported from Furness Vale, England

    @Plusnet is showing again how useless they and their service is.

  • LeanintoDesign John Grimshaw (@LeanintoDesign) reported from Oldham, England

    @RischDesigns @fittdr @virginmedia @Plusnet @NOWTV @emmerdale @LoveIsland Thanks for the advice both you and @ASBO_Allstar have said a similar thing so I guess it's a negotiation down in price with a new router to fix @virginmedia crap hardware.

    @Plusnet Any issues ? No internet here in CF31

  • mounsey John Mounsey🛒 (@mounsey) reported

    @Plusnet Hello. Quick one: Line rental due for renewal w/ yourselves in January, 2022. Service has been OK... but do I actually NEED it? (V. happy with the Unlimited Fibre service, also from yourselves -but landline isn't really needed anymore..). Mandatory??

  • thedurhamdad Pete (@thedurhamdad) reported

    Help needed please @Plusnet - our service keeps intermittently dropping even after a factor restart. Is DH1 area of Durham still impacted by #stormarwen ? Or another issue? Many thanks

  • ch4rmed ELENA (@ch4rmed) reported

    @Plusnet our broadband is and has been ridiculously slow for over 1 month now. Can you help

  • Viffergb GB (@Viffergb) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, in view of the fact that I am still experiencing the notorious 5GHz WiFi 'dropout' issues, and that's after having upgraded to the latest firmware, would you please consider upgrading my router to the latest Hub Two to see if that fixes the problem?

  • GilesDMiddleton Ⓖ Ⓘ Ⓛ Ⓔ Ⓢ (@GilesDMiddleton) reported

    @funkysi1701 @Plusnet I had a similar problem last year. Even when wired up to the router and disconnecting everything else. Listening to the phone line through a handset it was all static. They had to dig up my garden and some of the street as the wires to and from my T bar had corroded. Good luck.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @CharlotteA_PR Hi Charlotte, sorry to hear you're having broadband issues. Nothing is showing as a major service outage in your area. Can you DM us any errors you are getting when you are trying to use your broadband service? Dan Plusnet Sheffield

  • bickypeg Peggy Breckin 🇸🇾 🇵🇸 (@bickypeg) reported

    @Plusnet I did wonder. And EE have got terrible customer service reviews. I must say you've always been prompt answering queries. What's the answer then? 😢

  • cheerytreeblog seren (@cheerytreeblog) reported

    @Plusnet I’m not receiving calls on my phone apart from in the odd instance, otherwise everything is working fine. Is it a problem with my sim? The coverage checker has full signal.

  • McGeorgeOfTheJ1 McGeorgeOfTheJungle (@McGeorgeOfTheJ1) reported

    @Plusnet Yeah this happened after in game a remote signal from plusnet forced my router to restart, when fully restarted trying to log back in resulted in problems at that point, and the logs of the router showing data from the EU datacentre being blocked. Lets not shift blame shall we.
