  • 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

    @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.

  • _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.

    @Plusnet my download speeds are terrible, your advisors are rude and condescending, and nobody has got back to me about my complaint. It is terrible customer service and I want to leave but your exit fees are ridiculous.

    @Plusnet Hey Plusnet! Why can't I get through to your customer services by phone? Are your lines down? I need help and support please.

  • Bobfrombristol Robert Hall (@Bobfrombristol) reported

    @Plusnet I've cancelled your broadband on 160725, looks like I'm getting a rebate from 170725 to 230725, I mistakenly used the broadband on 170725, Is this a problem ? , I am willing to pay for the extra days usage.

  • G6JPG_ jpeg. Let's have 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 in news! (@G6JPG_) reported

    Calls asking about roof insulation. (Repeatedly asking "what is the name of your company" makes them hang up [they pretend to be some body].) Calls show number if I dial 1471, but if I try block it (1572 option 1 with PlusNet), "unknown". Come on, @Ofcom. Make telcos block these

  • johnreed222333 John Reed (@johnreed222333) reported

    So let’s be clear about @EE. They only guarantee the flow into the router. NOT the Wi-Fi signal, and Wi-Fi 6 covers less than Wi-Fi 5. When you change from plusnet to @EE no one explains this.

  • TomWoWPR Tom Walker Media (@TomWoWPR) reported

    If, as @EE claim, they’re the best mobile network in the country, I would hate to see the worst. Ever since I transferred over to them from Plusnet two or three years ago, I have had a succession of problems with them; the latest being the random cancellation of my sim,

    @ukevowners We were lucky with our ISP. The @Plusnet router plugged straight in no problem. Looking at adding their RPS next and then possibly cameras.
