  • 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?!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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)

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

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

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

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

  • 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

    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)

  • Felix_of_Mars Stuart Fraser (@Felix_of_Mars) reported

    @Plusnet Do you still track requests via DM. I sent one last evening and still not been looked at. I didn't realise you closed the other support channel at first.

  • Rozzakro KRO.rozza (@Rozzakro) reported

    @Leslemcee @Plusnet Having the exact same problem, one week no service , seem stuck between my new and old number after porting. Customer service useless, just fobbed off with were working on it but don't know when it will be fixed. Luckily on a 30 day contract so be cancelling soon. Awful

  • MattMattbrown matt brown (@MattMattbrown) reported

    @Plusnet Began trying to port over to you from bt a week ago.been without any mobile service whatsoever since. Called but advisors appear to have no clue what is happening. Can you please update on what the issue is and how much longer it's going to take to resolve?

  • sophoftheyear Soph(isticated) (@sophoftheyear) reported

    @Plusnet Update: Just been told that the issue has been going on for weeks and that I need to sit tight... As a new customer, I am really not impressed and don't think I will be recommending @Plusnet to any friends/family.

  • gm_nameless 𝕘𝕞_𝕟𝕒𝕞𝕖𝕝𝕖𝕤𝕤 (@gm_nameless) reported

    @Plusnet It's a shame they don't offer fibre in my area, yet my neighbor's a few doors down are on full fibre. Cables are literally outside my house. Also, support ends 8pm. Not great if you need a problem fixing.

  • Felix_of_Mars Stuart Fraser (@Felix_of_Mars) reported

    @Plusnet Great, wasn't sure if you were still doing support this way. Thanks.

  • JacarandaGirl72 Jacaranda Girl (@JacarandaGirl72) reported

    Hands down, worst customer service experience ever. #Plusnet owe me over £100 in credits but can't process their own billing service so have restricted my broadband until I pay £20. Which I have done - just in order to keep WFH etc but I will be leaving them as ASAP. Inept.

  • Rozzakro KRO.rozza (@Rozzakro) reported

    @Plusnet when are you goin to fix my connection problem from porting my number ? Tired of hearing "were fixing it but can't give a time scale" terrible start to my contract with you, 1 week in and still no service.

  • LaPope79 Denise 'Checo' Pope (@LaPope79) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks for the response. Do you think it's fair to charge a customer of over 11 years such a high early termination fee? Leaves a very bad taste to be honest. Certainly wont be returning to Plusnet ever, or recommending you as I once did.

  • MsEmmaChaplin Emma Chaplin💙 (@MsEmmaChaplin) reported

    So @Plusnet have shoved a 9% increase in my "fixed price" broadband fee for a pretty poor service. Then failed to call me back about it as promised. Who is better these days?
