    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?!

  • 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.

    @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

  • 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?

  • stachini82
    Gareth Stachini (@stachini82) reported from Manchester, England

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

    @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

  • Natwatson78

  • 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!

    @SkyHelpTeam It's done. I'm now a customer of @Plusnet

  • Paul_crannee
    Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 ...

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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...

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

  • 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!

  • 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.

    @Plusnet Hello! I recently bought a phone off eBay and it said it was locked to your provider! It says it’s still locked but has no name of what provider. Is there a way you can contact me and help me unlock it? Thanks!

  • 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?

  • spinner2000
    chris Jones (@spinner2000) reported

    @Plusnet my broadband is due for renewal I dont usually look at "exclusive" deals for me but tonight I have and it is cheaper to be a new customer and get a £160.00 gift card.. And to think I have 3 more family accounts with you aswel.. So much for loyalty.. Time to switch 😒

  • SeanClarke17595
    Sean Clarke (@SeanClarke17595) reported

    @LozzaFox We had max 12-14 mb/s from Plusnet. I was paying £44/ month inc tel line ( no mobile signal either) Starlink I get 100mb/s for £35/m and VoIP for phone £4 It’s the way to go !

  • Tonysmini
    Tony (@Tonysmini) reported

    @Nigelh7n @WeAreOpenreach It’s got to be done by Jan 2027. Plusnet don’t supply a VoIP/digital voice service hence the suggestion to swap to BT/EE if you want to retain a landline number.

    @AethyrUlf @Plusnet Just noticed it didnt send the first post.... But you get the idea :P I worked at the largest internet company where I live, know a big thing or two on how it all operates. there's probably an issue with your COAX, DSL or FIBER. going into your place. it all depends... where..

    Verified Jedi (@LoZeno) reported

    I swear, having to deal with @WeAreOpenreach and @Plusnet bouncing me back and forth just to have my fibre order, WHICH I PLACED IN FEBRUARY, fulfilled before MAY, is a layer of customer service hell I did not need. Openreach is organised with the sole purpose of making it..

    @SamiC0hen @Plusnet Oh no Sami, that sounds terrible, was there any minimum term on your rental property? And has your work company given you any indication how long you’ll keep your jobs for? My heart goes out to you, what a big worry 😞
