  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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

  • shaneswindells Shane Swindells (@shaneswindells) reported from Congleton, England

    @tandleman @Plusnet @plusnethelp Look what loyalty is getting you? Switch to fix

  • 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.

  • 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?!

  • shaneswindells Shane Swindells (@shaneswindells) reported from Congleton, England

    @tandleman @Plusnet @plusnethelp Switch then. Cancel your contract as they are breaking the terms by failing to provide the service you are paying for. I’ve just left plusnet myself.

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

    @Plusnet @IM_org Garbage. Your customer support is 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

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

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

  • 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?

  • mbusby993 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    @Viowlett @EE I loved them on the other side of Stoke. Best broadband I've ever had. PlusNet are awful.

  • 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.

  • 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 ...

  • 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???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • SuperScienceGrl ⌬Nessa Carson (@SuperScienceGrl) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @mynameis_rob PlusNet; switched to them not long ago from BT after I was sick of BT hiking the prices all the time, and also I was paying too much when my old local area only had crappy cables so poor speeds. PN is owned by BT but has still been better tbh. Solid customer service so far

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

    @Plusnet your service sucks!!

    @Plusnet Utterly appalling customer experience today and will be cancelling two contracts with you as a result.

  • BarkleRachel Rachel Barkle (@BarkleRachel) reported

    @Plusnet Hello, after restarting my phone this morning, I am now getting a 'not registered on network' message everytime I try to make a call. If I call my phone, it just goes voicemail. Please can you help?

  • FEF_Phil Phil Mills (@FEF_Phil) reported

    Now onto day 8 of a fault with @Plusnet. Customer service has been atrocious as all they do is provide empty promises and excuses. And now I'm supposed to wait around for another two days before they can even be bothered to take another look at it.

  • deanmoo50509586 dean moore (@deanmoo50509586) reported

    @FEF_Phil @Plusnet Farkkk, customer service is abysmal. Dads service is currently down also.

  • flunny907 Finessa Wallace (@flunny907) reported

  • Kayte_Beth Kate 🦋 (@Kayte_Beth) reported

  • Kamran_Ali687 KamranAli (@Kamran_Ali687) reported

    @Plusnet my mobile connection has been down for 3 days now, i am not able to receive/make incoming and outgoing calls.

  • MushroomWonders Mel Atonin ❤🍄🦇 (@MushroomWonders) reported

    @Kamran_Ali687 @Plusnet 10 days no landline or internet service for my elderly parents. Plusnet say it's BT. BT say it's Openreach. Openreach tell me to contact Plusnet. Time to contact the Ombudsman.

  • CAxSkye Colin A 💙 (@CAxSkye) reported

    @Plusnet TBH it’s hard to give a positive review when for no obvious reason service failed late evening. Albeit some Openreach gaffe or rectification but nothing of merit emerges.

  • princesslivs Olivia (@princesslivs) reported

    Been waiting 4 weeks for wifi from @Plusnet😤 engineer finally came today and it’s still not working and we’ve been advised it’s @Plusnet fault. Please help!!!!!
