  • _RyanLegg Ryan (@_RyanLegg) reported from Halstead, England

    @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.

  • 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.

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

  • EyUpPete Ey Up Pete (@EyUpPete) reported

    @Plusnet is the internet service down in South Yorkshire? I've got kids trying to do live lessons with no internet

  • MaltBox Andy at Malt Box (@MaltBox) reported

    Twittersphere. Non-whisky question. Can anyone recommend a decent router sub £75? The @Plusnet router we've had for a couple of years is shambolic in terms of stability.. makes a right racket too.

  • PhosgeneStudios Jake W (@PhosgeneStudios) reported

    @Jonmitson @plusnethelp The routers do have a tendency to have a high-pitched/frequency noise. Plusnet are aware of this, and the issue only occurs when 5GHz is enabled. :)

  • SteveDonovan1 Steve Donovan (@SteveDonovan1) reported

    @virginmedia Feedback from a colleague with exactly the same issue a few months ago - she simply resolved her problem by switching suppliers to Plusnet. Her problem solved. In the absence of any proper official technical advice from Virgin, I could perhaps take my 15yrs of custom elsewhere.

  • natalie31190917 natalie (@natalie31190917) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp please can someone respond as having broadband issues been on hold for over an hour and have a year 11 child cannot access online schooling

  • estrellasadie EstrellaSadie 💙 (@estrellasadie) reported

    @Firesnakious Maybe check the settings on the new router? My router, provided by PlusNet is awful, and drops out all the time. I keep meaning to replace it.

  • alantowle Madball (@alantowle) reported

    @Tonysmini @OpenreachHelp @VodafoneUK I've no service at all now. Openreach email on Christmas day said ultrafast now enabled. Arranged to transfer. Transfer/activation date was given as 15th and Plusnet ceased old service at that point. Vodafone, after me pushing, give various stories about what is happening

  • paulmadkayaker Paul Barrowcliffe (@paulmadkayaker) reported

    @plusnethelp Hi. My mother signed up for plusnet broadband and phone back in January 2020. Her package should include caller id but it’s not working, it never has. Can you check this please?

  • Glamouranna 💚💜Anna Sans Souci (she/her) (@Glamouranna) reported

    Hi @Plusnet your openreach engineer stood me up? I've been waiting since 8am and still no news... It is impossible to reach you on the phone, could you help?
