  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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)

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

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

  • 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

    @JennyBratty @Plusnet I’d also think about telling @Plusnet you can’t afford your current contract. They have. Legal responsibility to help you where they can, they might be able to reduce the contract you’re already on. Eg Circumstances have changed since you signed the contract

  • x23ml X23 (@x23ml) reported

    Hi @Plusnet please can you sort out my broadband. It keeps dropping. Speed also varies. I've Txt HELP several times. Fault with line one moment, no fault with line the next... Never had any problems up until recently...

  • JoviMullen Jovi Mullen (@JoviMullen) reported

    @Plusnet hi, our broadband price has increased without any notification. We would like to discuss this or cancel as we can get a better deal elsewhere. Can you advise what I can do?

  • addzeeyy Addzeey👨‍💻🎨Comms Closed (@addzeeyy) reported

    @Plusnet My internet has still been having issues, though not as much, and my internet is currently dropping every like 5 mins, can’t believe I even have to pay for this months considering how bad it has been 😓

  • TCTweeting ME (@TCTweeting) reported

    @Plusnet - you're all talk and no support. How can I cancel my service with you? Without any penalties.

  • mistermemoryman Clive Wright (@mistermemoryman) reported

    @GarethKendall @Plusnet Literally in the same limbo. Wondering if I change providers, would it work for say @EE ? Or is this just a Plusnet issue?
