Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Horwich and nearby locations:

  • 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!

  • Natwatson78 Natalie Watson (@Natwatson78) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @Plusnet just wondering if services are down please PR6 7FH ?

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    PHONE LINE DOWN Please bear with us. Our @Plusnet phone line has gone down. Divert will take at least an hour to be activated. Feel free to message us on here. Apologies, we are looking for a more reliable supplier as we speak.

  • jamesksowerby Sups Like a Sumerian. (@jamesksowerby) reported from Bolton, England

    It has been a rubbish online week with the internet down for hours, with @Plusnet still charging, and my relying on my mobile signal more than usual

  • sean_mvm MacCárthaigh #FBPE #MVM 🇪🇺🇮🇪🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🏴🌹 (@sean_mvm) reported from Urmston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It's done. I'm now a customer of @Plusnet

  • mrcflknr Marc Faulkner (@mrcflknr) reported from St Helens, England

    @Plusnet Very disappointed by the attitude of one of your agents when calling today with my Mum to change her payment details. She’s partially sighted and needs my assistance with reading details, yet this wasn’t acceptable and the woman was incredibly rude. 😢

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet any issues in WN8? Download has dropped to just above 1 over the past few days. Nothing seems to fix the issue. It’s painfully slow and well below what I’m paying for. Any help appreciated!

  • nickhornbee Nicholas Hornby (@nickhornbee) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet hi my internet has been down since midday. Is there an outage?

  • LeahWhitehorse Leah Whitehorse (@LeahWhitehorse) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk It would be helpful if you updated your website to show known service issues and outages. Outage in Manchester today is a known issue yet nothing on your site. Plusnet informed me.

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    Last day of the season and @plusnet have well and truly let me down! Daughter unable to revise for GCSEs, wife unable to work, and I can’t watch the footie!!! 😩

  • kevinefcduffy Kevin Duffy (@kevinefcduffy) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet absolute disgrace! Messing my friend around, broadband speed 0.7mb and not 30-50mb as agreed, then want to charge £250 in the cooling off period???? Some of the worst customer service I have ever seen!

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • groundhopper80 groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

    @Plusnet hello help signal is on and off for the last hour.

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • katiemaeox katie (@katiemaeox) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @Plusnet internet has been off since yesterday please help?

  • kevinefcduffy Kevin Duffy (@kevinefcduffy) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet Honestly Emma, It's a catalogue of errors left right and centre and then made worse with awful customer service. It's been escalated.

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

    @Plusnet your service sucks!!

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @Plusnet hi, are there any issues in the wa11 area, cant find anything but phone says emergency calls only.....thanks...

  • 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.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JON_D84 Jon D (@JON_D84) reported

    @Plusnet Well it went down at around 12:30 this morning as a number of devices went offline, your site wasn't reflecting this at 8am. It still looks to be down now as I'm not able to connect to anything at home! Is this still an ongoing outage?

  • OVLHSSociety OVLHS (@OVLHSSociety) reported

    @Plusnet I don’t consider 10 hours a “short time”, maybe in your world where you’re constantly losing the service overnight!

  • books0507 books0507 (@books0507) reported

    @SaffyButtons @Plusnet I fortunately have a dongle from work but it’s very slow, not ideal.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @Tasty_Reg Hello, For a short time this morning a small number of customers were experiencing problems connecting to their Broadband service. We worked quickly to resolve the issue and we are very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. All the best - Beth Plusnet Sheffield

  • RuthElleson Ruth Elleson (@RuthElleson) reported

    @Plusnet @elbly Still having trouble in London SE5. Blue light is on on router, but can’t upload or download anything. Username is same as my Twitter handle (without the “@“).

  • Tasty_Reg Tasty Reg (@Tasty_Reg) reported

    @Plusnet That reply is just taking the p---. Shocking customer service.

  • derpy_doris ❤️Adele Krisstine❤️ (@derpy_doris) reported

    @Plusnet Internet has been down all morning and I am having to use my mobile data, something which I can scarcely afford to use. This is not good enough and the lack of communication with customers is appalling.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @james62907862 Hi James, I'm sorry that your broadband is still down and for the inconvenience caused. Please send us your account username over on a direct message and we will look into this. Regards, Emily Plusnet Leeds 🌞

  • Tasty_Reg Tasty Reg (@Tasty_Reg) reported

    @Plusnet @quantumhealer1 9 hrs is not a short time and there are thousands of reports on Down Detector, starting at 12.30am. Why did it take 8 hours to acknowledge an issue despite promoting 24/7 support? We understand that things go wrong but you are solely lacking in the way you have dealt with it.

  • yamezhamilton yamez 💊👀💡📈 (@yamezhamilton) reported

    rep from @Plusnet sang to me while we were troubleshooting my router and then referred to me as "ma luv" in an endearing northern accent after fixing everything... customer service done right 🥲🇬🇧
