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

  • 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 🙄

  • 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)

  • 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.

  • 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

    @NigelsRadio @Plusnet To be honest. I've been with them since 2007. Never had a major issue. The one I had was the fault of Openreach. Engineer cut the wrong cable at green box. Most problems are not @plusnethelp themselves, but usually Openteach.

  • TJstweet Tom Johnston (@TJstweet) reported

    Apologies if you think I’m ignoring your emails, but I am still having serious problems with the @Plusnet crash problem. Two days down and counting. Phone’s on if you need me! #plusnetdown

  • mungerville craig branson (@mungerville) reported

    @lizcooperclark @VictoriaPeckham @Plusnet Mine worked about 12am last night, receiving mail and sending. Thought it was fixed. But no this morning it’s back to broken. #plusnet #plusnetdown #PlusnetNomail

  • kaareeeennnn1 Karen Grove (@kaareeeennnn1) reported

    @Plusnet just wondering if the company's WiFi is actually down or if its just mine and I can't figure out how to fix it

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @LorcanAdrain Hey there Lorcan, you should now be able to log into your Plusnet email, however there may be a delay when sending and receiving emails. We’re working to fix this as quickly as possible and we’re sorry for the inconvenience caused. Thank you - Liam, Plusnet Sheffield.

  • NigelsRadio NigelsRadioTakeover (@NigelsRadio) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks. How did you know where my line is? I never sent a dm?

  • SeanMcDD Sean McDonald (@SeanMcDD) reported

    @Plusnet Two days in and still can't send emails. Very poor customer service but no real surprise at that given the decline over the past year. Plusnet used be dependable but no longer

  • McWojjed Roger Sanford (@McWojjed) reported

    @Plusnet "updates can be tracked here . . . " and your link simply sends me to a page selling £50 and £60 packages . . . Really? Not the customer service that brought me to PlusNet in the first place. 2/10 must try harder 🤨

  • LoneLeVay LoneBee (@LoneLeVay) reported

    @Plusnet @AiberdeinQuine I still can't send emails; getting error messages about unsupported connection encryption type on all plusnet mail accounts (not Gmail). Is this connected to the current problems and is there an indication of a solution? We are into a third day now.

  • dsmiffy55 Derek Smith (@dsmiffy55) reported

    @Plusnet I’m pleased that we are now receiving emails. However we still can’t send them. Help please.
