Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Chester-le-Street and nearby locations:

  • 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?!

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

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

  • remenos Joanne Emerson (@remenos) reported from Sherburn Hill, England

    @PickGS @Plusnet @plusnethelp It’s blatant profiteering - I need broadband to work from home and I’m now paying £35 instead of £22 - and to think their selling point was excellent UK customer service 🙄

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

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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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

    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)

  • LesleyF94036042 Lesley Fletcher (@LesleyF94036042) reported

    @Plusnet Nina Cook, Bethany Mann, Alistair in Leeds, Yaseem. 3 other staff without names all tried to help but just passed the problem on to the mysterious e-gift department run by fools.

  • chloetc_ Chloe Clifford (@chloetc_) reported

    @TalkTalk Had it checked several times but theres an issue with fiber port. Openreach engineer marked job as complete today as Plusnet put a hold on our line (we're switching to them 24th may). We've had the hold removed. Now you are saying you cant get an engineer out for 8 days. Trash.

  • ThrilledSkinny Ian Garrett (@ThrilledSkinny) reported

    @tandleman the problem is not Plusnet's, but Openreach. Do you know whether your neighbours get affected? If so I'd go direct to Openreach, they are responsible for the cable/line up to the property. Plusnet get access to the local exchange for your service.

  • jnfr84 jnfr (@jnfr84) reported

    @Plusnet Hey dudes, I'm hoping you can help. This morning I had a workman at my home accidentally cut my internet cable clean in half! What can I do? It's an external cable perhaps phone line, I'm not sure, can you send someone to fix it for me? Many thanks, a plusnet customer

  • gold123win reg morris (@gold123win) reported from Neston, England

    We need answers to the crisis in Telecoms #Scams & #Fraud Nobody in the media wants to report the scandal Yet more #Victims join the list daily My query is BTGroup& Open Reach + @EE & PlusNet needs to be broken up as soon as possible It has a a too cosy relationship with @Ofcom

  • DaviesKelvin Kelvin Davies (@DaviesKelvin) reported

    @Plusnet You also won’t let me leave without charging a fee for your substandard service. You also boast award winning customer service well it wasn’t in my opinion. 😡😡😡

  • sasarihurley Drew Hurley (@sasarihurley) reported

    @Plusnet Morning. Widespread outage in Talbot Green, Llantrisant, Pontyclun since midnight. Spoke with support on the phone who reports openreach issue. They can't reach my line to test it. Working from home and burning up my personal data. Any further info?

  • syfifty sy Fifty (@syfifty) reported

    Hi Plusnet Do I have to leave you because you don’t support Apple Watch cellular

  • 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.

  • Articulatedpea welsh valley vaper (@Articulatedpea) reported
