    @RichardPrice78 @plusnethelp leave plusnet ASAP. I’ve had issues with them for yrs and they KNOW about issues with their routers but still send them out. I have 7 months left on my contract & can’t wait for it to be up. They’ll say it’s the 5ghz & that needs separating from the 2ghz but don’t that don’t work

  • Quinch1199 Quinch Gaming (@Quinch1199) reported from Leeds, England

    @plusnethelp hey, trying to get through to solve a repeating fault with my @Plusnet router (likely need a new one) but can't get through on phone. Is there an issue?

  • Clare231965 Clare (@Clare231965) reported from Darton, England

  • davejackobantam Dave (@davejackobantam) reported from Leeds, England

    Outstanding service from @Plusnet @plusnethelp .. NOT !! Took out a new contract 12 days ago and NO router, that should with my Skype job interview tomorrow #shocking. Not massive with everything else that is going on in the works but still 😳🤬🤬

  • kwooffindin ken wooff (@kwooffindin) reported from Sherburn in Elmet, England

  • Ella_Sunflower_ Ella Lockwood 🌻 (@Ella_Sunflower_) reported from Castleford, England

    @Plusnet My Router arrived today and all lights are on except internet.... any ideas how to fix this? (I've been trying to get through since Friday)

  • chelsyholland1 chelsyholland (@chelsyholland1) reported from Castleford, England

    Sat with my iPad not even 2 foot away from the router and I can’t even load an app shocking from @plusnethelp @Plusnet as a fibre extra customer! Christ alive what happens if you have normal internet service. Does a carrier pigeon deliver messages?!?

  • JohnFin75257340 John Finch (@JohnFin75257340) reported from Horbury, England

    @Plusnet Why is my Landline bill higher this month? There are 3 calls allegedly made to 01159338000. We never made these calls yet we have been charged 40 pence for each call. I think that this is a scam. Please can you check.

  • camelsbestmate Will Gordon (@camelsbestmate) reported from Thorner, England

    @Plusnet unaware that my broadband deal had ended. You emailed me, told me and highlighted the best deal available. Two clicks and signed up. The first time in over a decade I have not used a switching service. At this rate you are in trouble of gaining a customer for life.

  • ElectricOblong Chris Freeman (@ElectricOblong) reported from Garforth, England

    @plusnet joined up this week and so far it’s terrible!!! No response from support and terrible performance. Have I made a mistake

  • TagCraigy Craig (@TagCraigy) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia your price increases are just ridiculous - it’s gone up by 1/3 since I started. @SkyUK @TalkTalk @Plusnet @bt_uk @VodafoneUK anyone offer something better as virgin have never offered anything to keep business.

  • dannyunwin Dan Unwin (@dannyunwin) reported from Skelmanthorpe, England

    @Plusnet good honest broadband. Maybe not. Over charging the mother-in-law and apparently can’t resolve it due to their systems. Sounds like bull to me. Stop giving Yorkshire a bad name #fraudsters

  • Exfostercarer supernanna (@Exfostercarer) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @nw_nicholas @Plusnet I was with them for 9 years no problems ever, I only left because I didn't need broadband anymore as I've unlimited data on my phone.

  • mike_leckenby Lord Mike Of The Tsetse Flies💙💙 (@mike_leckenby) reported from Leeds, England

    @StephenPMurtagh @Plusnet I tried their internet service after they first started up, not knowing they were… not good… the BT connection explained it… I really never had a good opinion of BT since they were first formed… expensive, arrogant and terrible service

  • lottiejonesy Charlotte Morley Jones (@lottiejonesy) reported from Eggborough, England

    Urgh, I'm crap with anything to do with Internet speeds and stuff, and trying to change my broadband/WiFi as mine is plusnet and its shit, but I don't know what's a good speed! I don't like getting old.

  • Levinicolex Levi 💛💙 (@Levinicolex) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @O2 keeps dropping out, not receiving calls or texts, data is on and off and @Plusnet not working either. 1st world problems but the only day I need internet and both aren't working properly 😑😑😑

  • hydey17 Ryan (@hydey17) reported from Hemsworth, England

    @Plusnet absolutely shocking service had 5Mbps internet for 2 days now no reply no interest shown whatsoever can safely say the internet provider will be getting changed shortly!!!!

  • MsAndyPT Ms P (@MsAndyPT) reported

    @Plusnet I am getting tired of waiting for plusnet to install my broadband service. I was told that an appointment was imminent for 6th Sept! No contact since then & I can’t get through on the helplines. Do I have to cancel my new contract? I’m still in the cooling off time!!!!!!

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @catsargent Hi there Catherine, I'm really sorry that the SIM hadn't reached you before the number switched over to us. Could you send us a DM with your mobile number please if that's still an issue? Apologies for the delayed response by the way. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • Celtic67Champs CHAMPIONS 💚 (@Celtic67Champs) reported

    @Plusnet Every customer of yours is extremely saddened with your service but you don’t care about them do you?

  • Olliehelp1 Ollie (@Olliehelp1) reported

    @Plusnet 4 weeks without Internet after moving in with no date for a connection. Do not use this company. It also takes an hour to get through to customer service on the phones.

  • chrisw333 CHW (@chrisw333) reported

    ..and I thought getting through to my doctors on the phone was painful. Try calling @Plusnet ! 25 mins of piano music so far and no help from the chatbot on website. Where's my SIM @plusnet! #plusnet #poorcustomerservice

  • CarthyBernard Bernard Carthy (@CarthyBernard) reported

    Hi @Plusnet I've still not received my router and my contract starts tomorrow. I understand there have been postal strikes but when I've tried calling you this evening, despite you still being open, you've said it's too late to call. Pretty poor service tbh.

  • Plusnet Plusnet (@Plusnet) reported

    @Nell3Tate Hi there Nell, I'm really sorry for the issue and hope that's not still affecting you, if it is please send over a DM with your mobile number and your full name. Apologies too for the delayed response, we're much busier than usual at present. - Adam - Plusnet Sheffield

  • Parkerbats Parker Bats. (@Parkerbats) reported

    @Plusnet Incredible contempt for customer service from Plusnet. I agreed to renew a contract at a new price and they increased the price before it even started without notification. Attitude from staff online and phone is, “tough, like it or lump it”. They were great at first

  • shonakydd shonakydd (@shonakydd) reported

    @Plusnet I'm afraid we are experiencing terrible customer support from @Plusnet at the moment, anyone else in the same place? Our internet went down a week ago now and we run our business from the house and have been losing clients and money daily as @Plusnet have not fixed it.

  • ChomBot26 ChomBot (@ChomBot26) reported

    So I have some complaints to make about @Plusnet and @WeAreOpenreach bad customer experience and service About a month ago, There was a scheduled work for unblocking a blockage. Should be simple right? it was not. (1) Continue Down the replies
