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

    @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 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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...

  • LeahWhitehorse
    Leah Whitehorse (@LeahWhitehorse) reported from Salford, England

    If you are in South Manchester and have an issue with broadband, there is a BT incident in the area. Not showing on their website! Plusnet informed me should be fixed this afternoon. Check with your provider.

    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.

  • MShacks
    Michael Shackleton (@MShacks) reported from Accrington, England

    Warning ***Switchboards at BT, Virgin. Talk Talk, Sky and Plusnet are blocked with over 14 million people trying to reconnect to a broadband service they had cancelled from today.

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

    @Plusnet could you please help me? I paid for your service more than 20 days ago and I still don't have internet. I'm calling but nobody is answering.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • LeahWhitehorse
    Leah Whitehorse (@LeahWhitehorse) reported from Salford, England

    @bt_uk It would be helpful if you updated your website to show known service issues and outages. Outage in Manchester today is a known issue yet nothing on your site. Plusnet informed me.

  • 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?!

    groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

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

    @Plusnet "We're here to help from 8am-8pm every day" Called at 18:50 this evening and privilage to speak to a rude customer service operator who when asked to for the call to be escalated am told nobody was available as the call centre closed at 7pm and that his shift was ending

  • WendiSheard
    Wendi Sheard (@WendiSheard) reported

    @Plusnet will you be answering the phone by 20.00? Or will I be disconnected as per voicemail? Is there an overall problem with the internet with you?

  • ITVRobShelley
    Rob Shelley (@ITVRobShelley) reported

    @Plusnet hello! Last week I phoned to say I wanted to stay with your service - now I have a load of texts from you telling me my installation and router are set to happen/arrive - but I’m already installed and have a router…this is surreal

  • CyberaxUK
    Cyberax (@CyberaxUK) reported

    Hey @plusnet - sent a DM yesterday could someone help with it please?

  • BobaliciousBob
    Rob Baillie (@BobaliciousBob) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks. I'll do that. Now, please ponder on the absurdity of the fact that in order to ask a simple question one needs to go to the "Make a Complaint" section - and that someone who works as a software engineer building end-user systems couldn't find it on their own...

  • ITVRobShelley
    Rob Shelley (@ITVRobShelley) reported

    @Plusnet Hello! Because of your former great service, I called to stay with yourselves not switch to EE. Whilst Tamsin and David who took my call were lovely - and v good at their jobs - sadly the whole call, incl hold time, took just under half an hour - that's bang out of order
