  • 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

  • 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

  • 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???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • 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!

  • 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

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

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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

    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?!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • Mr_Meerkat Mr_Meerkat (@Mr_Meerkat) reported

    @Plusnet hello. Your website appears to be broken. I've been trying to sign up for a mobile contract a number of times this afternoon but keep getting an error message.

  • philwells_iow Philip Wells (@philwells_iow) reported

    @Plusnet our broadband has been down since 1pm yesterday due to “a local incident”. You said it would be back up and running by 7pm yesterday. Didn’t come back on. Text then said it would not be back on until 7pm today. Does it really take that long?

  • masheik sheikrazak (@masheik) reported

    @Plusnet I want to cancel one of my contracts with plusnet. I received STAC code which I will not use. I am not planning to take contract with new provider. I called to discuss this but got response as the line closed. Could you please close the contract account no 98888497.

  • DenchMagliocco Joe Magliocco (@DenchMagliocco) reported

    Nice one @Plusnet Did not sort my broadband when I moved in Tues, delayed till Fri. Now it’s not working and I’ve been told I need an engineer who won’t come till Weds 6pm. Absolutely terrible. Shame, because its always been a good service. Regret not switching. Not proud.

  • PositiveToughts Angela (@PositiveToughts) reported

    @Plusnet my nan can’t text from her phone it’s not allowing them to go out. How can I order her a new SIM card but keep her number to see if that’s the issue

  • iAmMacca Adele🪐✨ (@iAmMacca) reported

    @Plusnet how do I complain about my internet? It's absolutely terrible, the minute I go upstairs I loose connection. I'm with you for not ole too and I'm constant running out of data because I need to use my data upstairs!

  • ruthfiroo Ruth Williams (@ruthfiroo) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnet much more than an inconvenience at this stage. Extremely bad to no service, 2 reports and complaints within 6mths. Impossible and chaotic customer service systems. As the customer I am experiencing ongoing disruption, delay in my work and costs #tradingstandards

  • bpickardflute Beth Pickard (@bpickardflute) reported

    @Plusnet Hello, our new full fibre broadband has been down for 2 days with no communication, is there any way we can escalate our report or receive a response? Thank you.

  • toomuchsand Mike Μάικ Miké Esq (@toomuchsand) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks Adam. It would be good to know that your fix would include some way of remotely‘fixing’ a SIM that gets ‘stuck’ in E mode when abroad - being without data is inconvenient these days when we have come to rely on it for sat-nav, translation, etc.

  • ElenameAF ElenaF (@ElenameAF) reported

    @plusnethelp there is no way of communicating with Plusnet except by waiting in a queue on the phone or this way. PLUSNET you keep on cancelling my cancellation of the contract . I am leaving you and moving to BT - after 5 years waiting and a complaint to Openreach to resolve
