  • 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)

  • Lizzyr59 Lizzy Robinson (@Lizzyr59) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

  • 458batty Stephen Batty (@458batty) reported

    I am holidaying in Wooler, Northumberland. My wife has GiffGaff and I have Plusnet. Both use O2's Network. She has a lower signal than me and gets service but I am 'denied' - taken from our relative Samsung mobile phone settings. WHY??? @Plusnet

  • 1204Mrs Mrs B 1204 (@1204Mrs) reported

    @Plusnet why is there not an option online to cancel an account? Why is the only option to call? Any other query would be met with "manage your account online"

  • LordWilsonVILLA LordWilsonVILLA🦁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿UAI (@LordWilsonVILLA) reported

    I'm having HELL with @Plusnet have you ever moved your broadband to a new supplier and kept your phone contract with the old supplier? I've never heard of that but @Plusnet has????

  • Burryshmee Jools W (@Burryshmee) reported

    @ferhat71 @Plusnet I'm also getting worried about this, @plusnet are not sending me mine and their customer support is not helping. Thinking of asking to be released from my contract - they are not supplying what they offered

  • BeanZoomy Bean Zoomy 🎶 (@BeanZoomy) reported

    Actually no, @Plusnet, I just saw what you do on month 13. I won't be joining you at all. I saw free line rental ads everywhere, but it's not ongoingly free when reading the T&Cs. You're as bad as Virgin! No way will I be paying £36 per month for #broadband so shall keep looking

  • zzoommplc Zzoomm (@zzoommplc) reported

    @RothmansYears @Plusnet Yes. Our work should not affect your current broadband service.

  • Ofcom Ofcom (@Ofcom) reported

    More companies offer social tariffs since we started highlighting this issue – but we want further action: 🔴 TalkTalk, Shell Energy, EE, Plusnet & Vodafone to offer broadband social tariffs 🔴 Major mobile providers to offer them 🔴 More work to promote deals to customers

  • listen_natalie Nat, Empress of The Hat Museum (@listen_natalie) reported

    @slightlybored13 It looks like a Plusnet sim only might be the way to go - uses the EE network which I'm on and know is good, but is less than half the cost for more than three times the service.

  • lloydyc0 lloyd (@lloydyc0) reported

    @plusnet @lstrafford Still not resolution, promised call backs haven’t happened! Have called @Plusnet again and have now been advised to cancel the order and start again!!!!!!! Really are you joking?! AVOID PLUSNET!

  • No2HPassport No To Health Passports ⭐ (@No2HPassport) reported

    @Plusnet Is anyone going to fix my internet then or should I give my business to someone else??????????
