@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 🙄

@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.

@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

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)

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)

@plusnethelp Hi. I moved to plusnet broadband a month ago and find my WiFi connection unreliable. I can’t do things like watch YouTube or have WhatsApp video calls without buffering or getting “reconnecting” messages. It’s quite unusable and disappointing. Can you help please?

@Victrix75 @Plusnet @BT As long as the router is taking the connecrion in OK, the mesh system completely does the "wifi around the house" part - so it's an immediate improvement. I can't recommend them enough. (If the router is faulty and the signal isn't getting in, then a mesh network won't help.)

@plusnethelp there’s an issue with @DayZ that’s been going for over a year now from my knowledge where some servers just won’t load. I thought it was just down to my area but now someone else using plusnet has come to me personally with the same issue! This is pretty bad from you

@Plusnet @Plusnet if you’re part of the BT family why do I have pay £200 of charges to go to BT when your service doesn’t work? Also asked to throw away the modem or sent it back- surely there is a more green way of re-using modems. #poorcustomerservice #daylightrobbery

Wow... As soon as it hit 8pm the technician at @Plusnet just hung up on me without a word. Charming. He was incredibly rude as it was. @plusnethelp

@plusnethelp Hello, I signed up to Plusnet on 19 April via the Topcashback site, but my cashback has not tracked. Who can I contact to find out why ? Also is it too late to cancel if the cashbacxk is not going to be paid. Thanks
