    @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.

  • deniseessex denise salman (@deniseessex) reported from Chelmsford, England

    Hey @plusnet what is going on with FTTP connections in the midlands and north? I can see loads of us posting on X have all had repeated disconnects overnight the last few days and today I have almost no bandwidth starting about 5:30pm. Support tell me there is a geographic issue?

  • Stigmurder Joanna Bear (@Stigmurder) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, broadband down in OL15. Neighbours also have no internet so it’s not a ‘me’ issue. Any idea what’s going on and when we can expect to be up and running again?

  • dcarlson13 DAVID (@dcarlson13) reported

    @Plusnet it really hasn’t been ‘straightforward’ to sign up a new account online. You’ve taken payment, but no account set up and page said no payment taken. Spoke to your customer services and told I need to wait 5-10 days to get a refund, and to call back if I haven’t received!

    @TPreston13997 Hi there, Thank you for your message and we are sorry for the delay with our responses. Unfortunatley if you were to cancel your broadband service with us, your email address would be cancelled too. Rafiqe - Plusnet Sheffield
