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

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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • stevegaish stevegaish (@stevegaish) reported from Whickham, England

    @Plusnet Hi its Stevegaish. I have emailed on numerous occasions but still no resolution.

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

  • Lizzyr59 Lizzy Robinson (@Lizzyr59) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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)

  • rupertcollier Rupert Collier (@rupertcollier) reported

    @natp80 @Plusnet @CloudWireless Yep it works well with a 4G Wi-fi router, I had that too before. Only thing is Sky needs landline based broadband for on demand stuff plus I found Netflix streaming quite poor. I would test it first if you can.

  • QGreen43 QueenOfGreen43 🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@QGreen43) reported

    @Plusnet @bt_uk @CompAtSch i've been having this problem for days on/off now, about a week actually

  • plusnethelp Plusnet Help (@plusnethelp) reported

    @mattllewellin Hi there Matthew, I'm sorry to hear you want to leave Plusnet - unfortunately we cannot cancel your account via this channel. You can write to us to cancel here: Plusnet plc, The Balance, 2 Pinfold St. Sheffield, S1 2GU, if you are still unable to get through. - Jess

  • Nemo01439240 Miss Loves-to-Knit 🧶 (@Nemo01439240) reported

    @Plusnet wifi down. Keeps flashing orange with the b symbol appearing?

  • pasteech Cheech Pasteech (@pasteech) reported

    @LetsTalk_FPL @MMABrad48 Think it's 75mb with Plusnet, using ethernet direct from router into mains and get the full 75. Never any issues with lag at all

  • RedJolt Derelict Geodesic Dome☭ (@RedJolt) reported

    @Smokesniper I feel this would be a good feature for all helplines. “Hey, plusnet, turns out that while your systems had caused a really, really stupid problem, it was actually incredibly easy to fix, and I can’t believe you still haven’t got back to me tbh.”

  • CardinalBiggle2 Cardinal Biggles McFerryFace #FBPE 3.5% 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 (@CardinalBiggle2) reported

    @ColSkye I'm with Plusnet atm. I'm switching to BT this week i was with BT for 10 years, very happy with the service, but I got fed up seeing great deals for new customers, but only price hikes for existing ones. 20thC Customer Retention Marketing hasn't reached @bt_uk yet

  • mthomas0317 michelle thomas (@mthomas0317) reported

    @plusnet my broadband hasn’t been activated & it said by midnight on the 10/2/21 please help

  • TheformerD TheformerVictoriaDrummond (@TheformerD) reported

    I'll not be on much for a few days, my internet is down. The lovely lady I spoke to at @Plusnet said it could take 5 days to fix my faulty line. Sigh. (She was genuinely one of the best customer service reps I've had)

  • sjwdy Steve Williams (@sjwdy) reported

    @Plusnet I telephoned customer services last Friday to my wireless signal had dropped dramatically over the last few days. "Angie" said she'd run some tests and that she would have to escalate the problem and that someone would call me. Please advise.
