  • 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)

  • 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?!

  • ChattonCottages Sheila Bull (@ChattonCottages) reported from Riding Mill, England

    @Plusnet If only..... 3 months ans till not connected. Dreadful service

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • HannahRose1401 Hannah Jeffrey 🇪🇺 (@HannahRose1401) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Has your Internet gone down @plusnethelp @Plusnet? NHS worker struggling to work from home here.

  • 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)

  • CenyddRoberts Cenydd Roberts (@CenyddRoberts) reported

    @supertanskiii @Brizo751 I’m quite sure my Plusnet router is an anus router, given the claims about their performance and service.

  • zoe_engstrom zoe engstrom (@zoe_engstrom) reported

    @Plusnet we’ve been with you since May. I am absolutely gutted that we signed up to this shower of an internet service. My whole family keeps their WiFi switched off on their mobile phones because you are not providing us with the service we signed up for.

  • recameja tigersb 💚🐕 (@recameja) reported

    @supertanskiii I hab similar problems Bought a second hand BT smart home hub 6 As Plusnet are owned by BT,the setup is pretty straightforward I've had no problems since

  • CaptJolly Roland Rodgers 😷💙 (@CaptJolly) reported

    @supertanskiii The current Plusnet routers are pretty OK. Made by Sagemcom. Similar to last generation BT. There are many excellent replacements available. You do need to clarify whether you have issues with the *Router bit" or the "WiFi bit". You can add a better WiFi AP to your Plusnet

  • RobCowham Rob Cowham 🇪🇺🇬🇧 #FBPE #FBPR (@RobCowham) reported

    @supertanskiii I’ve been with Plusnet for a long time. Their routers are pretty poor. Try Netgear, they do router/modem combined. Always found they perform well. If you’re on fibre their Orbi system I superb thi gives you mesh’ Wi-Fi which negates the need for extenders

  • Ormithologist Jacqui Hemming (@Ormithologist) reported

    @Plusnet Had a message to say my emails were archived as I hadn't accessed the account in a while. I've now added my Plusnet account to my webmail server, but I'd like my emails restored. Help?

  • FoodMan_aka Food Man (@FoodMan_aka) reported

    @supertanskiii What is the problem with your Plusnet router ? Have you spoken to Plusnet and asked them for a new one ? You shouldn't need to retain your existing router as a modem I'm a big fan of Draytek and Cisco routers but they can be tricky to set up as there's a LOT in there to bugger up

  • steviweavi 🇪🇺Stevi - Carping still #JohnsonNotMyPM #3.5% (@steviweavi) reported

    @supertanskiii Surely first stop is ask Plusnet to send a new one. If its shite, connecting to something else that then connects to the router won't necessarily fix the problem

  • MagnificoFigaro Masked Figaro (@MagnificoFigaro) reported

    @supertanskiii Ours was shite too. Kept loosing wi-Fi on all devices. Its a known issue that the device switches between 2.4 and 5 ghz depending on range but fails and drops the device. Spoke to Plusnet and they talked me through disabling 5 ghz. After that haven’t had any problem.

  • monsieurijh E (@monsieurijh) reported

    @supertanskiii BT business Hub6, does 2.4ghz and 5ghz....got mine off ebay after a year of extremely bad plusnet router performance, and WOW, noticeably better in every aspect...setup instructions on plusnet forum under BT business hub👍👍
