  • fionamilligan Fiona Milligan (@fionamilligan) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Day 3 and STILL no broadband @plusnethelp @Plusnet I certainly hope you’ll be refunding me... but the fact that you give a recorded message and then hang up doesn’t fill me with hope #EdinburghEH6

  • coffey_richard Richard Coffey (@coffey_richard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet hi there. I'm here to report my broadband in west Edinburgh cut out completely about 10 mins ago with the red broadband light flashing. A similar thing happened a few nights ago in the evening which was resolved when turned router hub off/on. Didn't resolve this time tho

  • coffey_richard Richard Coffey (@coffey_richard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet my broadband just came back on at 1.15am so that's a downtime of about 1hr or so. Still can't raise a line fault on your website as undergoing maintenance. Strange how broadband suddenly stops and then restarts in this manner. 😐 Never had issues ever until this month.

  • ollie_djw Ollie ✨🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@ollie_djw) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet hi there, I can’t seem to send any texts from my iPhone on my Plusnet simcard. Could you help me please?

  • Normantweets Jamie Norman (@Normantweets) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    The good thing about today's 7-hour-and-counting @SkyHelpTeam outage is that it's the final nail in a wearying road, giving me the push to swap contract to @Plusnet, who appear to be offering better speeds at almost half the price...

  • craighk93 Craig (@craighk93) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bt_uk @AIridag with plusnet and I am the same, not working

  • itslegaltender Graham Muir (@itslegaltender) reported from Ratho, Scotland

    @Plusnet internet been down since 1230 am. Blue light on but no service. Looks like problem is all over UK

  • gm8arv David Taylor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@gm8arv) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @G4ELI @GD3YEO @virginmedia Sounds better! Good service from PlusNet? BT don’t have a good reputation.

  • addierfc adam kinnear (@addierfc) reported from Ormiston, Scotland

    @Plusnet my broadband contract ran out on 31st Jan and I renewed / upgraded well before this but earliest install date I could get for the new service is 14th Feb. I have now been billed for the out of contract rate, very poor service for a loyal customer of yours.

  • ISaidAye Beth☮ (@ISaidAye) reported from Dalkeith, Scotland

    @robmcd85 @TalkTalk I was with them for four years and had the same problems. Switched to @Plusnet and have had no issues at all. Faster speed and better price.

  • balnastraid Lauder Miller (@balnastraid) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Bricrabtree History shows that they never did .... when we hear John MacDonald say “ nobody will loose their Job in the sector and he talks about amalgamating the workforce’s of Openreach, Virgin, PlusNet etc you know your going to finish up with £1bn + wage bill and no income stream.

  • craighk93 Craig (@craighk93) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp WiFi still not working in Edinburgh. Your helpline wasn’t available. Would appreciate assistance...

  • andrewducker Andrew Ducker (@andrewducker) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @sarahdal Zen and Plusnet both have good reputations for customer service. Message me your postcode and address and I'll see what I can find.

  • itslegaltender Graham Muir (@itslegaltender) reported from Ratho, Scotland

    @Plusnet This reply is ingenious. You were down from midnight through to the point of resolution. To say it was a short time rub salt into the wound. I suggest whoever signed off on this generic reply revisits their customer service training. #plusnetdown #plusnet

  • DannyBerry15 Danny Berry (@DannyBerry15) reported from Inveresk, Scotland

    @Plusnet I have tried loads of times to call about my poor Internet with no reply or waiting almost an hour on the phone. I have an outstanding balance to pay but why pay for internet when it is constantly slow or I can't connect. Payment in full once its fixed. Cheers

  • coffey_richard Richard Coffey (@coffey_richard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet my broadband has just come back on after about twenty minutes but clearly there are underlying issues that your technical departments need to address.

  • M_sideSchoolMus Morningside School of Music (@M_sideSchoolMus) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet business broadband down AGAIN in EH10. Please contact us regarding releasing us from our contract. @plusnethelp #plusnet

  • coffey_richard Richard Coffey (@coffey_richard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @Plusnet your current national service status says Green on all services, which is clearly a load of rubbish judging by all the outages reported across the UK in the past week or so...

  • itslegaltender Graham Muir (@itslegaltender) reported from Ratho, Scotland

    @Plusnet @TheRegister what’s the issue affecting all UK customers? Blue lights on modem are on but no service since before 1am?

  • AlexLamond1 Alex (@AlexLamond1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Actually, this seems to be an #Openreach outage. #Sky #PlusNet, #Vodafone and #BT all affected

  • LouiseS19826403 Louise Scott (@LouiseS19826403) reported

    @Plusnet hi im having problems with my service dropping out every few minutes. Ive tried ringing the only number i can find but its saying number not recognised. How can I contact you as I'm trying to do a uni assignment and my works not saving

  • timmybanana Tim Wright (@timmybanana) reported

    @Plusnet I refuse to.private message. The account holder has also complained about this and apparently a 'firmware' is being pushed to the router. This clearly isnt working because we have had the same issue tonight. Our contract will be cancelled by us, with refusal to pay any charges!!!

  • nacra6 nacra6 (@nacra6) reported

    Hi, my Plusnet username is nacra6 supply address NW3 5AJ. I am having an awful service, I sorely regret switching to you and I will leave you as soon as I can.

  • cclanfear Charles Lanfear (@cclanfear) reported

    @Plusnet, where customer service is the only service you receive. Great customer service folks, but I'd rather not have to keep talking to them. Two weeks of delays and regular calls. Still murdering my wallet with mobile data charges with no end in sight.

  • mani370 mani (@mani370) reported

    @Plusnet hi, currently in india, service has switched to Airtel India but not receiving any texts/SMS which are needed for account verification. Using iPhone 12 Pro Max, help please

  • Steven_Thurso Stevie080 (@Steven_Thurso) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband has been down since 5pm yesterday. I had quite a few drop outs prior but since 5pm yesterday off completely

  • MikeHar75956227 Mike Hardy (@MikeHar75956227) reported

    @abigailtaylor45 Yeah, I feel like I lost 3-1 this past few days. Thanks Lloyds Bank, Sainsbury's and particularly Plusnet who claim to have award winning customer service. What a joke!!

  • timmybanana Tim Wright (@timmybanana) reported

    @Plusnet And guess what..............same again tonight. Absolute disgrace @Plusnet I'll never use you again whilever I've got a hole in my arse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • FlagBlyth Flag Blyth 🌹👵 #JeremyCorbynIsMyPM (@FlagBlyth) reported

    @Plusnet I sent a DM 5 hours ago - you have not even acknowledged it and websit say get help via text - how? when i do not have a mobile!

  • PiperPark4 Melissa Park (@PiperPark4) reported

    @Plusnet I urgently need to use my mobile abroad. Despite my data being switched off I have reached my SmartCap so can’t make calls - including calling you to sort this out! Please help!
