    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    From recent experience I can confirm this tweet is total nonsense. I’m moving all of my services elsewhere. Customer service 0/10, shambles. I suggest you all check if you can get a better deal elsewhere. (@Plusnet expect my call)

  • BlocknBottle Block & Bottle (@BlocknBottle) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @Plusnet HELP! Our internet’s gone down, how can we get it up and running in the next 1 hour and 11 minutes before we open?!

  • fredspoon Philip 👌🏼 (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Broadband down at home @Plusnet not great said there some fault needs and engineer.

  • 2012neil2012 Outdoorsey (@2012neil2012) reported from Dunston, England

    @Plusnet I am having issues with my home WiFi connection since doing a separate password change on my plusnet online account. Do you have an email address I can send router reference images to , to discuss / resolve? Many thanks

  • LeDreamboat Scott ⚫️⚪️ (@LeDreamboat) reported from Sacriston, England

    Don’t ever get @Plusnet broadband! Tried to cancel within 14 days of it going live due to it being absolutely useless, to then be told the cooling off period was from when I signed up!! 🤬. (Had to switch the WiFi off to tweet this)

  • mouse5555 Lynn Dixon (@mouse5555) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Don’t worry about it plusnet doesn’t work for long enough for anyone to have issues with safety

  • Johnad25 John Adams (@Johnad25) reported from Durham, England

    @benjymous @Plusnet Sounds much more like it from their customer services. I’ll try and use the referral code if I can, but it may clash with the Bluelight discount my wife gets. Gouging a #keyworker in a global crisis isn’t classy thanks again @EE.

    @Plusnet thanks for not replying to DM since last week. Just been cut off phone queue!! The worst CS ever. Why did I move from TalkTalk!!!

  • Slugslime2 Slug 🍃💚🍃 🥬🍌🍎🌱 (@Slugslime2) reported

    @OpenreachHelp I have been trying to switch my broadband from Plusnet to Sky since October. On both occasions you have not built in a stop order resulting in 2 cancellations. Sky have now said you need to put in tiepairs. Switching is meant to be easy. Appalling service. @Ofcom

  • JLT1950 Jenny Taylor (@JLT1950) reported from Hebden Bridge, England

    @Plusnet Furious with @plusnet for deleting my email account despite confirmation that they WOULDN’T do this when I had to change service provider. Going to complain to the Ombudsman.

  • fragpasty fragpasty (@fragpasty) reported

    @AnneMariePiazza @Plusnet After having a dodgy router (which I had for 5 years and was refused a replacement despite being told I should have got on at my last renewal) I moved to BT. Cheaper and much faster. Plusnet has gone right down hill.

  • kevf12345 Blahhh (@kevf12345) reported from Dudley, England

    @Plusnet Unless you have been a customer for a longtime then you get ignored

  • kevfergus kev ferg (@kevfergus) reported

    @Plusnet Sat morn. Thirty minutes on hold. After a total call duration of 45 minutes I was taken off hold. A voice said something and I responded by asking them not to hang up. They hung up. Incompetent service, lied to ,time wasted and did not get issue resolved.

  • LauraBeale Laura (@LauraBeale) reported

    @Plusnet Plusnet, we ordered our broadband connection on NOVEMBER 25TH and have been told we’ll be connected on 12th Jan. Really not looking forward to an Xmas day in lockdown (tier 4) with no Zoom, Netflix, WhatsApp, Spotify, etc. Help.

  • JLT1950 Jenny Taylor (@JLT1950) reported from Hebden Bridge, England

    @plusnethelp #plusnet 1.FURIOUS with Plusnet, I have had to move to BT as Plusnet don’t have fast broadband where I now live.Long conversations with customer services re this last week. Emphasised I needed my email to continue, assured it would do. Just found out it’s deleted.

  • PRHat751 Peter Rawl (@PRHat751) reported

    @plusnethelp Lack of customer support. Phoned Plusnet who had me on hold for over 25 minutes that my battery died 5 minutes into the call. The agent phoned me back but had me on hold for over 15 minutes before those batteries ran flat. Emailed info that he knew I had already don
