  • 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.

  • Billyhudson11 Billy Hudson (@Billyhudson11) reported from Tollesbury, England

    @Plusnet Broadband has been down now for well over 24 hours…

  • _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.

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

    @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.

  • PeterMu22490448 Peter Mulholland (@PeterMu22490448) reported

    @RainbowZilla87 the thing is, there's really only two good options - Virgin Media, and a service provided by BT. A lot of people dont realise if you get Sky, Talktalk, plusnet whatever, it's provided by BT. If it's **** from one provider, it will be **** from all of them :/

  • gadget_gaz Gary Stephens (@gadget_gaz) reported

    @Plusnet @BTSopenreach don't know who is causing our issues but no service for a week since we were due to be switched over. Compensation means nothing when we can't get any work done/watch tv/basically do anything. I've been patient but it's getting silly now

  • ljredux ljredux (@ljredux) reported

    @plusnet My Dad asked me to drop by because his internet (Plusnet fibre) went down. The problem seems to be external (local or national). He lives in Stoke-on-Trent. Do you know anything about an outage?

  • DougPaterson1 Doug (@DougPaterson1) reported

    @Plusnet you're all "arent we kind by giving yoi a reduced price to renew again". You should give loyal long term customers the cheap price on a 1 month contrast and rely on your "service" to retain them. But you can't do that can you? Wonder why?

  • gilliankilroy gillian kilroy (@gilliankilroy) reported

    @Plusnet is your website not working? Just logged into my account. Whatever I click on brings no results. For eg, clicked on Contact Us for my account and nothing happens.

  • KippaxRyan92 𝙍𝙮𝙖𝙣 𝙄𝙣𝙜𝙡𝙞𝙨 © (@KippaxRyan92) reported from Thornton, England

    Is #PlusNet broadband a part of BT? Thinking of switching as my current internet is nearly out of contract but had bad experiences with BT in the past so am at a bit of a loose end. I rely on descent internet as I stream everything via my TV.

  • Stakeholdahz Engager of Stakeholders (@Stakeholdahz) reported

    Hi @Plusnet your mobile network has been down for two days now. Are you going to do anything about it? I need an SMS code to sign in to the app and as much as I appreciate your website telling me to call you, I can't. Because there is no network.

  • ItsJamesPowers James Powers (@ItsJamesPowers) reported

    I've also ruled out @plusnet & @bt_uk as they effectively the same company as @EE and likely employ same standards with regards to fixing an issue that they caused.

  • ljredux ljredux (@ljredux) reported

    If you live in Stoke-on-Trent: Firstly, commiserations, it is awful for us. Secondly, landline internet is indeed down for many of us. On Plusnet, Sky, etc. Due to a local incident. Noone else on Twitter seems to be talking about it. Have a great, productive internet-free day!
