    @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 ...

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

  • 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.

    @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.

    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.

    @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.

  • aracoroneld

    @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.

    @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

    @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

    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.

    @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.

    @Plusnet your service sucks!!

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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!

    @Plusnet Hi I have received a request to return my broadband router. I am no longer a customer. I have followed the instructions to print a return label. Though I don't have a printer. I would love to return the router to be recycled. Please advise.

  • PaulSutton66

    @davidkurten In which case, the problem is my internet provider, Plusnet.

  • leedsbee
    ǝǝqspǝǝl 🇬🇧⚛️⚡️💡 (@leedsbee) reported

    @Benleo Never been a customer of theirs but It’s probably a very close tie between them, BT, Three, EE & Plusnet. The needs of the customer are totally irrelevant

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp we have now already more time Internet problems in #rutland #le15 #today @BTGroup

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

  • rockposer
    Rockposer Dot Com (@rockposer) reported

    @Plusnet I rang (for the 3rd time) I am still none the wiser to what the actuall problem is. @WeAreOpenreach are not to be seen, local people are all being told different things by their ISP's. No broadband for over a week is unacceptable @southkesteven

  • AlisonMLees
    Alison Lees (@AlisonMLees) reported

    @Plusnet Why should I phone? The last time I phoned, I got someone who didn't know anything and wouldn't help. It's quite simple. If you email me, I should be able to email you back.

  • AndyGraysdouble
    Robert Martin (@AndyGraysdouble) reported

    Before BT/EE ever regale us with what they do in AI they might first get round to getting vulnerable customer digital switchovers done quickly and seamlessly- a total shambles @BT @EE @Plusnet

  • cureisworse
    TheCureIsWorseThanTheDisease (@cureisworse) reported

    @Plusnet Ok. I will wait for them to contact me then as I'm not chasing again, given I get ofcom-mandated compensation for missed appointments and delays of starting a service after an agreed date.

    @Plusnet Are there any issues in ST7 with service? My router light is orange & when I try & connect on my phone I get a msg that hub 2 manager now requires a connection
