    Has your Internet gone down @plusnethelp @Plusnet? NHS worker struggling to work from home here.

  • BlocknBottle Block & Bottle (@BlocknBottle) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @Plusnet HELP! Our internet’s gone down, how can we get it up and running in the next 1 hour and 11 minutes before we open?!

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    From recent experience I can confirm this tweet is total nonsense. I’m moving all of my services elsewhere. Customer service 0/10, shambles. I suggest you all check if you can get a better deal elsewhere. (@Plusnet expect my call)

  • fredspoon Philip 👌🏼 (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Broadband down at home @Plusnet not great said there some fault needs and engineer.

  • 2012neil2012 Outdoorsey (@2012neil2012) reported from Dunston, England

    @Plusnet I am having issues with my home WiFi connection since doing a separate password change on my plusnet online account. Do you have an email address I can send router reference images to , to discuss / resolve? Many thanks

  • mouse5555 Lynn Dixon (@mouse5555) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Don’t worry about it plusnet doesn’t work for long enough for anyone to have issues with safety

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    @benjymous @Plusnet Sounds much more like it from their customer services. I’ll try and use the referral code if I can, but it may clash with the Bluelight discount my wife gets. Gouging a #keyworker in a global crisis isn’t classy thanks again @EE.

  • LeDreamboat Scott ⚫️⚪️ (@LeDreamboat) reported from Sacriston, England

    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)

  • remenos Joanne Emerson (@remenos) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    @PickGS @Plusnet @plusnethelp It’s blatant profiteering - I need broadband to work from home and I’m now paying £35 instead of £22 - and to think their selling point was excellent UK customer service 🙄

  • ChattonCottages Sheila Bull (@ChattonCottages) reported from Riding Mill, England

    @Plusnet If only..... 3 months ans till not connected. Dreadful service

  • ArgyllAtheist Ian🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@ArgyllAtheist) reported

    Hey @Plusnet - does your customer support number actually have ANYONE answering the phone? How long does it take on average to get through to a human? half an hour? an hour? ninety minutes?

  • mistermemoryman Clive Wright (@mistermemoryman) reported

    @heafod @Plusnet need a CEO who can sort out customer complaints not one who has an Ostrich mentality & hides their head in the sand. Plusnet are a very profitable company but give poor telephone & Twitter support. It needs to change. @MarcAllera

  • Spheron1 Edward Dore (@Spheron1) reported

    @carlheaton @Plusnet @TalkTalk I ended up having to cancel the Plusnet order and went with Zen instead. Not that they were much better in the end as they weren’t able to do basic troubleshooting of congestion on their own network.

  • Spheron1 Edward Dore (@Spheron1) reported

    @carlheaton @Plusnet @TalkTalk TalkTalk were (understandably) rather annoyed as the line was still within the minimum term. I somehow managed to get it stopped (this was under the old switching rules) but Plusnet we’re too incompetent to work out how they had done this and fix it, so they ghosted me instead!

  • Alan_J_Nash Science Fiction AL (@Alan_J_Nash) reported

    @Plusnet We joined Plusnet 6 weeks ago. They took money from us. We still don't have broadband and their customer service is appalling. Just want to cancel the contract now.

  • crhein272 Christian Rhein (@crhein272) reported

    @Plusnet Hi yesterday an engineer from Open reach was meant to come to my house to connect my overdue broadband. They never came.I got in touch via phone and was told that you will chase the supplier and get in touch shortly. But nothing happened. No engineer no message from you

  • x23ml X23 (@x23ml) reported

    Been with #Plusnet since 2017, no problems up until the last few weeks... ??? I continue to experience random connection drops and slow speed...

  • andreialisen andrei alisen (@andreialisen) reported

    @Plusnet I am trying to call you from abroad (EU), but 500, +44500 or +448000791133 are not working - it just hangs up when I call. What is wrong please?

  • carlheaton carl^ (@carlheaton) reported

    Was a happy FTTC customer with @Plusnet , ordered FTTP as a new customer with @TalkTalk so I could test it out fully, no mention of transfer, just a different/new product. I can't say I'm massively surprised TalkTalk has disconnected Plusnet without my permission but WTF...

  • carlheaton carl^ (@carlheaton) reported

    @TalkTalk I promised myself I would give TalkTalk one chance to offer a decent service while having Plusnet as my fallback. You removed the fallback from me without permission, so I've had no choice but to seek a more trustworthy alternative and cancel TalkTalk.
