    @Plusnet just wondering if services are down please PR6 7FH ?

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet I believe the minimum speed was added AFTER installation and after I contacted you. You have dropped my speed from the original 5Mb to around 1Mb as a response to each complaint I make. Perhaps the inferstructure should be investigated. Please forward me complaints email address.

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    @Plusnet is your service down currently in WA14? My internet has randomly gone off then showing as on but I can’t connect any device to it?

  • sean_mvm MacCárthaigh #FBPE #MVM 🇪🇺🇮🇪🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🏴🌹 (@sean_mvm) reported from Urmston, England

    @SkyHelpTeam It's done. I'm now a customer of @Plusnet

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet The BT service obligations (USO) states that my postcode is capable of 10Mb speeds and therefore is not eligible for upgrade. However you can only supply sub 5Mbs service. Can you explain the difference in the two scenarios.

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    Zero communication or update on @Plusnet website about the fact the network is clearly down across the UK- you can’t even get a dial tone when ringing their customer services either. What is going on?!

  • katiemaeox katie (@katiemaeox) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @Plusnet internet has been off since yesterday please help?

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    @altrinchamhq @Plusnet Yes it’s down for me in WA14, I had tried everything and was so confused as was appearing connected on the router! Not good from them to provide zero updates.

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Mmm. 2 days loss of service in a week. Not good. Maybe I'll speak to that nice chappie in Sheffield at PlusNet or maybe get BT Sports for free with BT Think you can do better tbh Voda do a cheap deal too...

  • nickhornbee Nicholas Hornby (@nickhornbee) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet hi my internet has been down since midday. Is there an outage?

  • jamesksowerby Sups Like a Sumerian. (@jamesksowerby) reported from Bolton, England

    It has been a rubbish online week with the internet down for hours, with @Plusnet still charging, and my relying on my mobile signal more than usual

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @Plusnet what is going with the service tonight … I switched to you being told your better … but nope crap internet still 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • tandleman Tandleman (@tandleman) reported from Middleton, England

    Getting fed up with @Plusnet who I have been with forever nearly. Every time it rains I lose my internet for a couple of minutes. When I log a fault they say it is fine now or monitor it for 2 days and close the incident. Of course it hasn't rained. Help!

  • Cavakaggy cavakaggy (@Cavakaggy) reported from Walkden, England

    @Plusnet mobile signal has been useless since Christmas, other users are also reporting this advise

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Stockport, England

    @Plusnet In your booklet that arrives with the router, you advertise 7:30am to 10:00pm. I call you for two occasions that don’t answer for 30 minutes each. At 8pm, it tells me customer service is now closed. What terrible service. Your billing systems work great though

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • Siftah John Baxendale (@Siftah) reported from Manchester, England

    @adechapmanlaw Problem is their phone line is crap, so PlusNet (who they were previously with) also would never get the phone line sorted and they were left with the same crappy speeds. Have signed them up with Sky fibre for less than they were paying for ADSL!

  • groundhopper80 groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

    @Plusnet hello help signal is on and off for the last hour.

  • aracoroneld Araceli Coronel (@aracoroneld) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet your service sucks!!

    @MoneySavingExp Been with Plusnet for years with no problems. The past year with a house move they have been an absolute shambles.

  • helenbeesley1 helenbeesley1 (@helenbeesley1) reported

    @Plusnet #thatlldo OMG this won't do..been with you 2 months, in that time only had 2 weeks full service, 32 phone calls to customer service #thatwontdo

  • MrDaegos Daegos (@MrDaegos) reported

    Marc Allera can **** right off! PlusNet can **** right off! If my internet shuts off one more time, im going mental!

  • countyIine ? (@countyIine) reported

    @thaharamii plusnet no issues at all

  • mlphowse Matthew Howse (@mlphowse) reported

    @OpenreachHelp plusnet says this might be your problem as well

  • Jayrea_UK Jason Reade (@Jayrea_UK) reported

    @MoneySavingExp I put up with 2mbps terrible ADSL from @plusnet for four years. Finally took the plunge with 4g Home Broadband from @ThreeUK and I'm now getting 30mbps for not much more money. Plus I never used my landline & always begrudged paying for line rental. I'd never go back.

  • DaveMor16686271 Dave Morrison (@DaveMor16686271) reported

    @MoneySavingExp That’s funny just seen a poll about customer service from broadband providers and guess who was last... yep you’ve guessed it Plusnet.

  • blazingskies Skyblaze the Kittyblob (@blazingskies) reported

    @RealCainMosni @virginmedia That's the problem, unless you use Virgin, or 4G-based internet, EVERY ISP is reliant on Openreach, because they control the infrastructure. Tony works for PlusNet, and getting Openreach engineers to do anything is a major bottleneck.

  • TheKentishBrum Richard Doherty (@TheKentishBrum) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp Only getting 0.41 Mbps download and 0.04 Mbps upload. Any help?

  • _BenCr Ben (@_BenCr) reported

    @Plusnet 4+ hours without internet and no response from @plusnethelp. Terrible service @Plusnet
