  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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)

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

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

  • HannahRose1401 Hannah Jeffrey 🇪🇺 (@HannahRose1401) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

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

  • 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 🙄

  • 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)

  • 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

  • philwells_iow Philip Wells (@philwells_iow) reported

    @Plusnet our broadband has been down since 1pm yesterday due to “a local incident”. You said it would be back up and running by 7pm yesterday. Didn’t come back on. Text then said it would not be back on until 7pm today. Does it really take that long?

  • clw2b Chris Wilkes (@clw2b) reported

    @Plusnet hi no broadband since yesterday is service down?

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @MsGinnelleD Hi there. Are you still having connection problems? If so, please can you confirm whether these are solely affecting your wireless connections or if wired connections are affected too? Regards, Emily Plusnet Leeds

  • ElenameAF ElenaF (@ElenameAF) reported

    @plusnethelp there is no way of communicating with Plusnet except by waiting in a queue on the phone or this way. PLUSNET you keep on cancelling my cancellation of the contract . I am leaving you and moving to BT - after 5 years waiting and a complaint to Openreach to resolve

  • kemisola // Kemi ⚫🕷#Rejoiner (@kemisola) reported

    So what happened, @Plusnet? Why did your service page say everything was fine at the same time as reports were being logged all over the country saying your broadband service was down?

  • Catherine_sfw Cathy (@Catherine_sfw) reported

    @eibrehs_ We used to have EE wifi but ma dad swapped to BT which is so ******* bad, not as bad as now or plusnet, but is still horrible Also, my data sucks, only ever get 2 bars

  • Andrewcheesman2 Andrew Cheesman (@Andrewcheesman2) reported

    @Phelimmac @john_allcock @SKJBell Hi All we just changed over 2 Plusnet fibre internet through Cityfibre net work all ok to here, BUT we’ve just had an engineer out as not working it’s his third call in our road in a month, the issue is the fibre stops outside our property 1/2

  • toomuchsand Mike Μάικ Miké Esq (@toomuchsand) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks Adam. It would be good to know that your fix would include some way of remotely‘fixing’ a SIM that gets ‘stuck’ in E mode when abroad - being without data is inconvenient these days when we have come to rely on it for sat-nav, translation, etc.

  • beautifulself6 Wendy Campbell (@beautifulself6) reported

    @Plusnet our broadband connection is awful, can you help please?

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @toomuchsand @ProfPilk Hi Mike, I hope you enjoyed your travels and sorry for the delayed response, whereabouts did you go? We have a known issue with 4g being unavailable when roaming. We'll let everyone know when that's been resolved and sorry if it caused any problems. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield
