    @Plusnet Dear Plusnet, I’m moving my place and unfortunately I don’t have access to my old email which was used to register to your broadband service. I cannot get into my old email and therefore I cannot get user name and password to my plusnet accout. What is the solution?

  • andywash Andy 💙 🇪🇺 (@andywash) reported from Hackney, England

    @VirtualAstro No problems on my Mac (on plusnet)

    @Plusnet customer service a absolute joke

  • cfurneaux Chris Furneaux (@cfurneaux) reported from London, England

    Hi @Plusnet my internet is down. Your website says phone lines open until 10pm but phone line closed and says only open until 8pm. How do I get support now?

  • robdogtrickies Rob Hanson (@robdogtrickies) reported from Poplar, England

    @Plusnet so much for your customer service you bang on about. Placed order for broadband on 13/10 on your advice as would be ready within 10 working days. Now you say it will be 11/11!! We need to work from home! Complaint been ignored. Utter shambles. Complaint to @Ofcom next

  • JSDBroughton jnthn (permanently broken) (@JSDBroughton) reported from London, England

    @plusnethelp no online chat and not even a call queue available. We’ve had no internet for most of today (intermittently up). Line fault troubleshooting says no problem with the phone line (plusnet line rental) What’s the best course of action? SE6

  • NickFaber Nick Faber (@NickFaber) reported from Hackney, England

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet I’ve had no broadband for over an hour here in E9, is there anything I should know? I’ve tried turning on & off etc. HELP!

  • lewis_hardwick Lewis Hardwick (@lewis_hardwick) reported from Crayford, England

    So I joined @Plusnet @plusnethelp a couple of months ago. Now every evening this week at about 9pm, my internet becomes unstable. But try calling them "sorry we close at 8pm". Time to cancel my Direct Debit? That might get their attention! What a joke.

  • cfurneaux Chris Furneaux (@cfurneaux) reported from London, England

    @Plusnet internet still down! Unfortunately as an existing customer paying you already I’m not looking to sign up again so there is no one to tell that your service is down. Hopefully you know

  • Daninho58 Daniel (@Daninho58) reported from Poplar, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp No internet for 24 hours. What is going on #plusnet? These problems crop up every now and again with this internet provider and this is going to be the straw that breaks the camels back.

  • Blitzwalker Steve Hunnisett (@Blitzwalker) reported from London, England

    @greenwichguide @maryorelse Mine does that too (Plusnet). I appreciate more people are working from home but the past couple of weeks, it’s been really slow and unreliable.

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

  • Green_AJ AJ Green (@Green_AJ) reported from Kensington, England

    @Plusnet I’ve had three network dropouts in the past two days. You forced me to sign up to a new contract to get this fixed saying this wouldn’t happen. What is going on??????

  • 247LondonLocks 247 London Locksmith (@247LondonLocks) reported from Barnet, England

    @Plusnet the operators aren’t helpful at all and with all my bank details my name and my address I cannot cancel my internet.. what are the options ?

  • PETERPAHOR PETER PAHOR (@PETERPAHOR) reported from Poplar, England

    The worst part of having a problem with @Plusnet is having to listen to @rihanna while waiting for support.

  • TotalOfficeBook Helen Parton (@TotalOfficeBook) reported from Islington, England

    @Plusnet I’m upgrading to fibre (yay!) have a few qs.When will my new router arrive (ordered Monday)? Will it be the same network name?

  • Gutbuster40 Gary Reynolds (@Gutbuster40) reported from Barnet, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp customer service a absolute joke

  • PETERPAHOR PETER PAHOR (@PETERPAHOR) reported from Poplar, England

    The worst part of having a problem with @Plusnet is to have to listen to that music while waiting for support.

  • kjackson1984 K Jackson (@kjackson1984) reported from Barnet, England

    @icklenellierose My rental house has Plusnet and it is very unreliable, constantly dropping out for no reason. They’re not as bad as EE (in my previous rental), but still pretty poor. It could just be a case of you need a new router.

  • dansette Jellicle as Fuck (@dansette) reported from Hackney, England

    @octoberclub We’re with plusnet but thinking of upgrading so good news! We have had zero problems with the regular speed broadband so far unlike TalkTalk.

  • FITNESSUKdotTK FITNESSUK (@FITNESSUKdotTK) reported

    @Plusnet Our business broadband 2 year contract has just ended and the price has jumped upto £59.76, how can we signup for a new 2 year contract and get the bill back down to the original £26.40, we don't really want to start messing about switching providers.

  • lanky1ben Ben (@lanky1ben) reported

    @Plusnet I've been on the phone to plusnet yesterday and they were able to fix it!

  • ReliableGranny Rue ♈️📚🍷🍹 (@ReliableGranny) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband box is making a noise. Sounds like crickets. I've reset the box and it's stopped now but for the past few days my broadband has been running extremely slow or no broadband at all

  • man_flowerpot Nige_Ragnarson🚴‍♂️🇩🇰 (@man_flowerpot) reported

    @avfcjackson @EE 4 in a family, £112 for a holiday. Just for your phones. @Plusnet seems to be the answer. Let's **** these roaming charges off by changing supplier. The market talks.

  • NicksSetters Nick (@NicksSetters) reported

    Although a Maths grad also an IT grad and Twitter issues today nothing sinister just someone messed up. Downdetector is a cracking little app for checking on things you use the issues now are at. Sky, Visa,Tesco, Daisy, Steam, Ocado, Plusnet, Morrisons, Emirates

  • lukeyook Previously on Waiting on hold for Customer Support (@lukeyook) reported

    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK This is worth fighting for. And not just against Vodafone. I had issues dealing with Plusnet. They disconnected our internet claiming we missed a payment, however I had proof I paid it. I went through and looked at the timing, and they actually disconnected us…

  • lorrylugs lorrylugs (@lorrylugs) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, I signed up to Plusnet when they were offering a cashback of £75. T&Cs state I should have received an email to claim the £75 cashback after my service went live, that was on 4July 2022 and still not received an email?

  • bluetonic78 Jennifer McCalman (@bluetonic78) reported

    @Plusnet I've just learned that you don't support texting to short codes. Is this something in the pipeline to support? I was unable to reply to an important message from Barclays today which led to this discovery

  • slater04 Catherine Slater (@slater04) reported

    @Plusnet what is going on!!! I have spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to change an engineer appointment and for some strange reason it seems to be impossible. Terrible customer service!

  • naked_techie Naked Techie 💻 (@naked_techie) reported

    I reported my internet download speed seemed slow at about 30 Mbps. Latest speed check shows about 48Mbps. Thank you @Plusnet for sorting it out. That'll do.
