    @nmassey79 @Alanlsg Plusnet...very fair..Mobile cheap linked to broadband. Bests I've had. Tell you when they are going to take your payment well beforehand. No issues whatsoever. Been with them 2 yrs.

  • DaveDaveadcock Dave Adcock (@DaveDaveadcock) reported from Southampton, England

    Had a call from 01847912990 with a recorded message saying it was my internet provider and that I’m going to lose service through illegal activity, but if i press 1 I can talk to them. It’s a SCAM of course but @Plusnet @plusnethelp you’re my provider. So thought I’d let you know

  • EddieRobson A Little Touch of SCHMOBSON in the Night (@EddieRobson) reported

    Anyone else finding YouTube won't load for them? "Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s)." Is this a problem with my ISP @Plusnet?

  • IanHawkes82 Ian Rex-Hawkes (@IanHawkes82) reported

    @virginmedia Well, that's great. If I said I would pay you "as soon as I can" for my broadband, how do you think you'd take that? Please arrange for a human to call me to explain why I should stay, as this is atrocious service so far after years of reliable internet from Plusnet.

  • FRH411TBMWR807 Philip Ashcroft (@FRH411TBMWR807) reported

    Can anyone explain why #shellenergybroadband never answer the phone? Their chat area is as bad for customer support. In fact after losing two hours of my life hanging on because "they value my custom" it's been quicker to change supplier to #plusnet

  • Martyn_Statter Martyn Statter (@Martyn_Statter) reported

    @manchester_pc As a resident of the Advent 2/3 building on PlusNet- its at least all of us with providers using openreach infrastructure. 200+ apartments in the building, but can't give the breakdown. Still down currently and having to use my mobile data to get work done. Its not fun.

  • systematicdata AL (@systematicdata) reported

    @bt_uk @Plusnet you really need to get the problem with YouTube and your parental settings sorted. Had to turn parental controls off to get on the TV app and the website. Thousands of people reporting problems on down detector.

  • PaulBrimicombe Paul Brimicombe (@PaulBrimicombe) reported

    @Andy_574 @TeamYouTube It seems to be a DNS problem with some UK internet service providers (PlusNet for me, BT for other people). If you set your DNS server to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 YouTube works again. Using a VPN will should also fix it.

  • LauraGrazebrook Pengland Pangolin of supreme mystery (@LauraGrazebrook) reported

    @AndrewDotDotDot Down on plusnet, working on mobile

  • counosboy counosboy (@counosboy) reported

    @Plusnet You do realise that online chat help is actually supposed to engage with the client? If all I’m going to get is an unhelpful Bot I’ll have to start looking for a new provider

  • rutheclements86 Ruth (@rutheclements86) reported

    Seriously @Plusnet - I have limited childcare and now I can’t even do my work I desperately need to get done today. Please help!!!

  • Anoninja7 Anoninja (@Anoninja7) reported

    @Plusnet is there a problem with Plusnet/BT DNS? YouTube on certain devices isn’t accessible on your standard DNS servers (which unbelievably aren’t configurable on your hub)…
