    @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.

  • 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)

  • 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

  • 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 🙄

    @chrisroast @plusnethelp Village spent six months in the Bermuda Triangle of Openreach, BT and plusnet. Pushed from company to company. One man had 11 visits. Each time told line ok. Eventually Openreach owned up. Problems in the station. BT wouldn’t pay to upgrade it.

  • JohnHughesIT John Hughes (@JohnHughesIT) reported

    @plusnethelp my broadband is almost completely down. Pinging the Plusnet DNS server results in 82% packet loss and an averages response time ov over 19,000 ms.

  • norfolkpauluk Paul Barnard (@norfolkpauluk) reported

    The award for worse wait time for customer services must go to @Plusnet 1hr and still waiting to get my “problem” resolved of having my phone line connected!

  • CommandaCoder CommandaCoder 🎄🎁 (@CommandaCoder) reported

    @plusnethelp Well, 3 weeks in @WeAreOpenreach finished at GU33 7QB today. Telephone OK pm. Internet is NOT! - 2Mbps Down; 0.5Mbps Up. Much lower than guaranteed bracket. An Openreach issue or Plusnet's? Please check and remedy ASAP.
