    @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.

    @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.

    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.

    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

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

    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

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

    @MDOG_Manchester @O2 @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK @bt_uk @EE @giffgaff @Plusnet @SkyUK @Tesco I’m with @EE and never had an issue

  • 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...

  • 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.

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

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

    @Plusnet internet has been off since yesterday please help?

  • 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

  • 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.

    @360Chambers Unknown BT down, Plusnet down, 3 down for internet, thank goodness Kevin Bacon isn’t launching planes or shaving men across the network

  • 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.

  • 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 ...

  • 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!

  • 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

  • ClarityBristol
    Clarity Copiers (@ClarityBristol) reported

    Anyone else experiencing terrible customer service from Plusnet? I was under the impression that they were one of the better broadband companies but obviously I was wrong having left my 84 year old mother with no connection for almost a week. @Plusnet

  • wendy4robbie
    Widge80 (@wendy4robbie) reported

    @Plusnet have restricted my service as payment hasn’t been made(despite setting up a DD!). I have tried to pay online several times but payment page is not working. I called 3 different numbers between 18:20 and 18:40 and been told their lines are closed and only open 8am-8pm?!

    @tii_bag Ffs your lucky my home Broadband can’t even run 1 ******* device appropriately from @plusnet leaving in November and never coming back

  • DONNYDIVArl
    Rosie L (@DONNYDIVArl) reported

    So... for the 2nd time in a week @Plusnet @plusnethelp have not got back to me after promising to do so to resolve an account complaint. I'm officially bored. Do I really have to make 8 calls to resolve a very simple issue. 9th looming...

  • egrefen
    Edward Grefenstette (@egrefen) reported

    Pretty disappointed with @Plusnet and @WeAreOpenreach. Engineering visit booked via PlusNet. OpenReach engineer shows up without ringing bell, slaps fibre entry point on some random side of the house, leaves without checking in. PlusNet complaint emails just bounce back. Great.

    Dave O’ Connor (@piercepower222) reported

    @Benleo Awful shower to deal with. So relieved when I finally got shot of them and got a simple deal with PlusNet

    @BluntMancLady @Plusnet Count yourself lucky I never received mine. I would be highly dubious of anything they offer to get you to sign up.

  • LouiseE53079472
    Louise Edwards (@LouiseE53079472) reported

    @Plusnet I want to know why my restrictions haven't been lifted on my Broadband wifi. I paid nearly £50 yesterday for a service I'm not getting.

  • alexbuckland96
    Alex Buckland (@alexbuckland96) reported

    @Plusnet you've sent a disputed bill to debt collectors after multiple errors made from your side, including an unauthorized contract made by your customer service team. This needs fixing urgently. Ombudsman?? Question # 254098523
