    @plusnethelp - Hi Plusnet, I’ve been advised by another provider, I am interested in moving to, that my line shows I am already a customer of theirs but I’m a customer of yours. They believe that you guys need to review why it’s showing I’m with multiple providers, can you help.

    @plusnethelp having problem with broadband setup. new customer as of 26 March. should have been up & running today, seamlessly. Plusnet hub has blue light but no broadband. Not impressed. Previous provider, Daisy working 100% on Wednesday. Please DM ASAP, order no: 0-3905409.

  • rider45 Brian O'Keefe (@rider45) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

    @Plusnet It may be expected to you, but every other network I have used rings engaged which is logical if the line is engaged, disconnecting the call as if the line is inoperative is just plain stupid.

  • arundir Graham Mitchell 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@arundir) reported

    @supertanskiii I'm with Plusnet, had a problem with original router they sent years ago, gave me a replacement which is working well.

  • salisbury1983 Mark Salisbury (@salisbury1983) reported

    @Plusnet Worst ISP ever, poor customer service and unreliable connectivity. Speeds so low compared with projected speed. Made the switch an low and behold much better service. Should of learnt when plusnet was branded as the abysmal madasafish…..

  • AdamCar52360562 Adam Carr (@AdamCar52360562) reported

    @Plusnet hello can you please provide me with customer service phone number for plus net mobile. Evey number on line is saying it unrecognised when try ringing.please.

  • HelloFromMarcus Marcus Green (@HelloFromMarcus) reported

    @Plusnet I'll call again tomorrow but claiming an error message "doesn't exist" when it's all over your community pages because your helpline guy "has never heard of it" gives zero confidence in your service. Hopefully I won't speak to a zombie then.

  • zoe_engstrom zoe engstrom (@zoe_engstrom) reported

    @Plusnet my husband cannot work from gone because of the atrocious connection and speeds. I am making a complaint to OFCOM, and I would like to discuss early termination as you are not upholding your end of my contract.

    @KittiKat76 You provided us your account username on a previous contact you made to us through this support channel. -Tony Plusnet Sheffield

  • zoe_engstrom zoe engstrom (@zoe_engstrom) reported

    @Plusnet we’ve been with you since May. I am absolutely gutted that we signed up to this shower of an internet service. My whole family keeps their WiFi switched off on their mobile phones because you are not providing us with the service we signed up for.

  • MagnificoFigaro Masked Figaro (@MagnificoFigaro) reported

    @supertanskiii Ours was shite too. Kept loosing wi-Fi on all devices. Its a known issue that the device switches between 2.4 and 5 ghz depending on range but fails and drops the device. Spoke to Plusnet and they talked me through disabling 5 ghz. After that haven’t had any problem.

  • TobyHolleran Toby Holleran (@TobyHolleran) reported

    @OpenMindMH If speed is an issue it could be an OpenReach thing, so you should avoid NOW/BT/TalkTalk/Plusnet etc Sometimes if your router is on an "auto" channel it can get interference from your neighbours' routers which can make the internet cut out.
