    Looks as though we're also back to PlusNet's usual service, having to reset the router every few hours cos our Internet drops for no apparent reason, cheers. 🙄

  • shaneswindells Shane Swindells (@shaneswindells) reported from Congleton, England

    @tandleman @Plusnet @plusnethelp Switch then. Cancel your contract as they are breaking the terms by failing to provide the service you are paying for. I’ve just left plusnet myself.

  • mbusby993 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    @Viowlett @EE I loved them on the other side of Stoke. Best broadband I've ever had. PlusNet are awful.

  • mbusby993 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    @Viowlett @EE Don't even talk to me about Virgin 😭 we were with them for broadband at our old place and they were amazing. They don't cover where we live now so we went with PlusNet and they're AWFUL. So I've gone from great phone service and great broadband, to shite versions of both. 😂

  • mbusby993 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    Hey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.

  • KateRav66 Kate Ravenscroft (@KateRav66) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @plusnethelp hi, my service is due to start today and my old broadband has been disconnected but I haven’t had a text telling me my plusnet broadband is ready to set up yet. I have the router.

  • mbusby993 𝕸𝖆𝖙𝖙🏳️‍🌈 (@mbusby993) reported from Mow Cop, England

    And no amount of resetting it is actually getting us usable internet service. PlusNet are genuinely the worst provider I've ever been with. Need to spam Virgin until they install lines in Mow Cop.

  • RachelC61908814 Rachel Cleary (@RachelC61908814) reported

    @Plusnet moved house on 30/11/22. Still no broadband transfer. Multiple calls on hold for @Plusnet to acknowledge that they can ‘see nothing has been done since 30/11’ but no explanation/solution offered. Public sector worker unable to work from home. Appalling service!

  • maria_juliettem Maria Myers (@maria_juliettem) reported

    @Plusnet I have an email stating you are waiving my early cancellation fee due to a miscommunication by your staff and yet I’ve just received a bill that includes the fee and you’re going to take an extra £32.66 off me? Please fix this ASAP

  • DeliciousLegacy The Delicious Legacy Podcast (@DeliciousLegacy) reported

    @Plusnet That took a while! It was fixed. Now its broken again. Do i change providers then to someone more reliable?

  • Anthony96273373 Anthony (@Anthony96273373) reported

    @Plusnet hi , I wonder if you could help me, I'm currently 10 months into a 18 months contract and my wife and I have seperated, she is currently living at the property , how do I cancel the contract and have the service switched off, I don't know what else to do...

  • Hedgewise Kathryn Allen OUSA (@Hedgewise) reported

    I managed to get through to plusnet customer service - the transfer will now happen on the 30th But they'd sent me emails that haven't arrived (he failed to get one through while I was on the phone - except via the John Lewis account) and don't know why for that either *frets*

  • fatherofkatie Father of Katie (@fatherofkatie) reported

    @Plusnet ordered your sim only deal wednesday with PAC code to keep my old nr. Today I was cut off from my old provider. No signs of my new sim cards. And also received email that I have spent all my data already #help

  • janebryant59 Jane Bryant (@janebryant59) reported

    @Plusnet I have reported a fault on my landline. My mobile phone battery is broken and won’t charge and I have been advised by your team to contact you on social media because this old mobile phone can’t take calls.

  • PAChallis Peter Challis (@PAChallis) reported

    @MoneySavingExp Remember that these MVNOs may not have access to all frequencies and facilities from the main network. Worth checking before switching. For instance EE supports 2G voice for wider coverage, and WiFi Calling. Plusnet does not so where I live they would not be suitable.

  • DavieIrwin Davie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 📸 (@DavieIrwin) reported

    @Plusnet vulnerable elderly Mother in law's broadband down for 40 days, f-o-r-t-y daaays. This was back in August. You have since confirmed that through the compensation scheme she is due £377.94, confirmed on the 21st of November. Still no sign of the cheque. #Shambles

  • rob_james7 Rob James 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@rob_james7) reported

    @OpenreachHelp our line and it's accompanying broadband connection has been down for a week. Our provider, PlusNet, say the fault has been with you the whole time but you have provided no updates to when the fault may be fixed. Can you assist please?
