  • nw_nicholas Mr Ethical (@nw_nicholas) reported

    Stressful conversation with Plusnet today. I’m trying to cancel my contract, not having had broadband for 12 days. They keep saying I will have to pay early termination fee of £70. They owe me £140 in compensation

  • neilbennett0707 Neil (@neilbennett0707) reported

    ******* @Plusnet router is doing my head in , every 20 mins turning flashing orange , written complaint incoming me thinks

  • voiceproject Voice Project Choir (@voiceproject) reported

    Call me old-fashioned (I’m certainly old) but when your email and broadband service provider doesn’t respond for days of email outage, one might be inclined to think it somewhat rude, particularly having been a customer for THIRTY-TWO years. So, @Plusnet get your act together

  • patelios121 Mihir Patel (@patelios121) reported

    @Plusnet been over a week since I messaged about needing a contact to speak to about getting fibre installed in my building for all residents and no one gets in touch. So poor. Thought you would be all over wanting to install that for 2-3 apartment blocks.

  • Mark_J69 MarkJ (@Mark_J69) reported

    @Plusnet @noisecandyman Can you advise if this issue is still outstanding? I have not been able to access my emails for 2 weeks now

  • robmcd85 Rob McDowall AMRSPH FRSA (@robmcd85) reported

    @christesla @Plusnet Mine is back up. Thankfully a temporary issue. Was dreading having to phone them in the morning.

  • RuckinRugby John 'Max' Maxwell (@RuckinRugby) reported

    @Plusnet Can you please cancel my broadband account. You'd think this would be a simple few clicks on your website, but then this is UK 2025 isn't it. Do not give me a number to call.

  • Lexi69hz Alexia (@Lexi69hz) reported

    @Plusnet Why is your broadband so ****. Like I can’t even watch YouTube without it buffering. Even when everyone is asleep it buffers
