  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet I tried all you ask me to try... you are the worse network ever. You expensive you slow and you basic. On this lockdown you were terrible... but still can merge with @VodafoneUK that charge 7 pounds for a call they didn’t pick up ...

  • trilok_chandra Trilok Chandra Jha 🇮🇳 (@trilok_chandra) reported from Manchester, England

    Hey @Plusnet all ok with your Mobile network.. Calls are not getting connected.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

  • Paul_crannee Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @Plusnet I need to contact someone on behalf of an elderly family member whose router has stopped working, completely! No email and currently no live chat to help resolve. Please advise asap, thanks. DM me if necessary, thanks.

  • trevos01 Trevor Williams (@trevos01) reported from Sale, England

    @plusnethelp I’ve been in contact with your help desk about my Emails being blocked by Plusnet from my Domain (123reg). Apparently you are aware of this issue & have a team working on this problem. Could you pls let me know when the problem is resolved.

  • 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...

  • stachini82 Gareth Stachini (@stachini82) reported from Manchester, England

    @code_sean @bt_uk Happened to me earlier this year so switched to @Plusnet, similar service but cheaper.

  • ShawnLorenzoo Shawn-Lorenzo (@ShawnLorenzoo) reported from Manchester, England

    @trufflenat90H @plusnethelp @Plusnet @EE @KhaalidGrantbel Ok thank you I will be calling plusnet to cancel the Internet is slow I can’t even watch @AFTVMedia without it cancelling

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

    @Plusnet @IM_org Garbage. Your customer support is 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • micahscotttt mary queen of thots 🥦Ⓥ (@micahscotttt) reported from Manchester, England

    Bit **** how I’ve been on the phone to plusnet around 6 times now regarding my broadband which isn’t working and after failing to phone me back like they promised yesterday they finally report it as a fault in the line which could take 3-5 days to be addressed.

  • 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.

  • nebzy17 nebzy (@nebzy17) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet Stop arsing around with this crap and answer my message to @plusnethelp - Why you got staff on football polls???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet you are the worst I ever used. I just want things to come back to normal so I can change ... never use #plusnet it’s the worst. Slow... expensive ... and no response if you call

  • emmabirdy Em (@emmabirdy) reported from Blackburn, England

    Thank you to the wonderful Emma from @Plusnet customer services team last night who is helping solve my internet issues and also made an hour on the phone to a call centre feel like 2 mins!! Let’s hope the engineer can fix it today #everythingscrossed #plusnet

  • emmawruns Emma 💛 (@emmawruns) reported

    @Plusnet Sorry but I am nearly 7 months pregnant and trying to shield as much as possible. An engineer has been out fitted a new socket (which is huge and takes up loads of room) and the issue is still there.

  • brandonj_2001 Brandon 🌹📈 (@brandonj_2001) reported

    Hi @Plusnet @plusnethelp, our WiFi has been down for a day now. It would be great if we could have your help.

  • JWBG1 Jema G (@JWBG1) reported

    Please could someone at @plusnet tell me how a webmail-only (ex-Madasafish) customer can contact you to report a problem?

  • MissyP187 Kirsty Powell (@MissyP187) reported

    @Plusnet I’ve messaged 3 times today regarding yet more issues with our connection which have all not been responded to. We have had months of rubbish service that still isn’t resolved. I am now reporting to OFCOM.

  • JWBG1 Jema G (@JWBG1) reported

    @Plusnet I'm a webmail only customer (ex Madasafish). Have had no emails since noon yesterday and none are showing on the website when I log in. No email outages are reported. Who can I contact to find out what's happening?

  • CaitClick Cait (@CaitClick) reported

    @Plusnet Our broadband has been down since the storm last night. Haven't got a landline phone available to test the line, just wondering how to find out if there's a known outage in the area?
