  • 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

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

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

  • 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)

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

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

  • 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 🙄

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

    @Plusnet Outage in Newcastle? No broadband since 8pm

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • MoonstoneIsle1 Moonstone Isle (@MoonstoneIsle1) reported

    @Plusnet Openreach have installed a fibre to premises duct in our street and cut our phone in the process. According to them I should report it to you. It has been over a week without phone or internet access which I require for my business and for medical reasons. Can you help.

  • we_are_biscuit 💖💜💙 thisisbiscuit (@we_are_biscuit) reported

    @Plusnet @BiConUK That's a good response. I'm glad you're working to resolve it. However a customer raised this with you a week ago. We shouldn't have to take things public to get you to do the right thing.

  • Richard_Parker Richard Parker (@Richard_Parker) reported from Doncaster, England

    That’s my broadband reluctantly changed. @Plusnet you have been brilliant and hope one day I’ll be back with you. All comes down to cost at the end of the day and can’t turn my nose up at saving over £6 a month.

  • danrolfejohnson Dan Rolfe Johnson (@danrolfejohnson) reported

    @Plusnet no broadband currently in se6 - is this a network problem?

  • we_are_biscuit 💖💜💙 thisisbiscuit (@we_are_biscuit) reported

    @Stoicfnord @Plusnet It's a customer (though I suspect not for much longer) of theirs who this happened to. I'm just shouting about it. Don't want them getting piled on otherwise I'd have made a thread around their original tweet.

  • we_are_biscuit 💖💜💙 thisisbiscuit (@we_are_biscuit) reported

    @Xyalon @cl_gamble @Plusnet When we were fighting this constantly, it was the middle syllable that caused the issues. Or so they said. They always remembered to unblock Scunthorpe.

  • Sockpuppet1011 Slock Rocket (@Sockpuppet1011) reported

    @we_are_biscuit @Plusnet I suspect, as mentioned, that there's a Support Tech desperately trying to find a manager to tell them what to do. They used to be great, especially for us techies who wanted to go beyond just consuming the web, but they're not much better than Talk Talk, Sky e.t.c. now. Shame.

  • pat1doughty Pat1doughty (@pat1doughty) reported

    @plusnet Perhaps you could use your spare time to help Plusnet Mobile, moved my daughters phone to them, they sent me another customers SIM, cut off her phone, sent her on her first holiday since 1st Lockdown, 120 mile drive , 2 young children, no phone! That’ll do Plusnet

  • countwebbbr Benjamin Webb (@countwebbbr) reported

    @Plusnet. How do I get service credits promised by support for my recent Internet issue?

  • brotherphil Phil Culmer (@brotherphil) reported

    @Plusnet my router is up and down like a hoo... ahem: fiddler's elbow tonight. Anyone know if there are network problems in the Lincoln area?
