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

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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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!

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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

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

  • 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!

  • Natwatson78 Natalie Watson (@Natwatson78) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

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

  • 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 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • 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.

  • 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 @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

  • 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???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • 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?!

  • 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

  • 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...

  • 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?

  • NathOrme Nathan (@NathOrme) reported

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet awful! Every night I have to turn off my WiFi and restart it! Terrible terrible terrible!!! Please do something about it. Speed guarantee... worst connection I’ve ever had. Contact me for details please

  • lumynosyty LCtrlAltDel (@lumynosyty) reported

    @mrmumbl35 @EddyThomas1997 You are aware that BT are the service provider for both EE and Plusnet. The only 2 main hardline service providers in the UK are BT and Virgin. All the other providers use their physical services all you are effectively doing is changing front facing company you deal with.

  • FrankDRoberts Frank Roberts (@FrankDRoberts) reported

    @Plusnet Registered with Plusnet for internet end of March, informed 10-14 days, had to wait three weeks until 17th April. On 16th April get message stating internet will not be ready until ready until 30th April. No explanation. Not acceptable level of service!!

  • stvmccrthy Steve McCarthy (@stvmccrthy) reported

    @jessmeacham I'd assume yes it's through the phoneline as they use the BT network. Things might have changed since my plusnet days but it's pretty much only Virgin and a few small companies that use anything other than the phoneline.

  • FrankDRoberts Frank Roberts (@FrankDRoberts) reported

    @Plusnet Dreadful service! signed up end of March; 10-14 days for internet, had to wait 3 weeks until the 17th April, on the 16th get further message stating internet will be ready by 30th April!!

  • Ruth82046341 Ruth (@Ruth82046341) reported

    @Plusnet your team member (who was awful!) has just told me I am now hostage to the company! In spite of you saying in writing that you will "cover the cost of the bolt-ons and extra data", this will not be via a refund - but I have other bills to pay, and won't be able to!

  • Gamersi76 Gamer Si (@Gamersi76) reported

    @plusnethelp hi plusnet. You contacted my parents and sold them a new router. Since then they have had no Internet and spent hours on the phone reduced to tears. Would someone like to help?

  • lozphie Lauren Hurford (@lozphie) reported

    @plusnethelp Hi Chris! I’m not even going to bother. We’ve got so many notes and complaints on our account already it wouldn’t achieve anything. I’m SO disappointed in the service we’ve had and I definitely wouldn’t recommend Plusnet 😡

  • Ruth82046341 Ruth (@Ruth82046341) reported

    @Plusnet failed to arrange internet installation on agreed date, plusnet confirmed they made the mistake (listened to the calls). Has cost me a LOT of money in bolt-ons to be able to keep working from home whilst you fix mistake. You say you'll credit me but not refund!

  • hariatv tu123 (@hariatv) reported

    @plusnethelp I switched to Plusnet Mobile last week and received a new sim in the post on 13th April. I still have not received an activation message and having contacted plusnet customer services, they could find no record of my order despite having taken payment upfront!
