Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Consett and nearby locations:

  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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?!

  • 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

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

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

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

  • DemonTomatoDave Dave Bulmer DemonTomatoDave#5138 (@DemonTomatoDave) reported

    @gogolitzen @EE What did they tell you? Plusnet texted me to say they're expecting to fix it at about 3:20pm - whether that's when they expect it to come back up or when they'll take initial stock of what the problem is and then work out what to do with it, I don't know

  • SeanHadland Sean Hadland (@SeanHadland) reported

    @Plusnet None what so ever - Some feedback for you - do what you always do and you will get what you always get, never underestimate or belittle a customer with jargon - poor tactics, us customers have legs and can move companies - loyalty and retention is the key 🔑

  • therealdrcj Clare Jones (@therealdrcj) reported

    @Plusnet - I’m not the happiest customer as my broadband has not been reliable. However, I’d like to give credit to Abdul who dealt with my issue today - he listened, empathised, suggested a solution then carefully talked me through the process. I felt valued. Hope it works!

  • TomABacon Tom Bacon (@TomABacon) reported

    @pipmadeley @Plusnet Ah maddening, was hoping that would help! Yeah, it seems to be a common problem

  • SimonJGarner Simon Garner Photography (@SimonJGarner) reported

    @pipmadeley @Plusnet @WeAreOpenreach do neighbours have any issues?

  • SimonJGarner Simon Garner Photography (@SimonJGarner) reported

    @pipmadeley @Plusnet @WeAreOpenreach I was wondering if it was a problem at the exchange, though if your phone still works I doubt it would be (forgot about trying that)

  • erinsteph_x 😾😾😾😾 (@erinsteph_x) reported

    My stupidity + kinda poor wording by @Plusnet near caused a heart attack, email about a small price increase didn’t say “monthly price will increase by £1.15”, it said “price will increase by £1.15 a month”, and i briefly took that as every month being £1.15 more than the last 🙃

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @nptweetings Yeah, they tested the line during the day (of course they knew the issue was at night so unlikely to find anything). Have asked Plusnet this morning for Openreach to investigate 👍

  • nptweetings Dan Ludlow (@nptweetings) reported

    @pipmadeley It smells like a line synchronisation issue or a loose connection somewhere (lower overnight temperatures). Did Openreach get called out, or did Plusnet just run a line test during the day?

  • pipmadeley Pip (@pipmadeley) reported

    @sea_of_crises @Daemar1 @Plusnet Plenty of times we've been online late and it's gone down regardless. Only the other night we were watching Happy Valley on iPlayer (TV connected to router by ethernet cable) when connection dropped at the usual time. Had to watch last 10 mins on iPlayer app via mobile data...
