  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @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.

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • micahscotttt mary queen of thots 🥦Ⓥ (@micahscotttt) reported from Manchester, England

    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.

  • 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???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • 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.

  • 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

  • harriLa77 Lee Harrison (@harriLa77) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @OpenreachHelp sort out loss of Internet sky, talktalk, plusnet down you OL13 9LP BELLENDS

  • 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!

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @Plusnet what is going with the service tonight … I switched to you being told your better … but nope crap internet still 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • 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 ...

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Arvin47370853 Arvin (@Arvin47370853) reported

    @Plusnet Hello there. I have had the worst, most unprofessional, disorganised experience with your company for nearly a month now. I have had to hold your hand through this whole thing. It's like I'm working to provide you a good service, not the other way round. Why is this?

  • pj_neris PJN (@pj_neris) reported

    @Plusnet I wrote before on the same problem but got no reply. My Broadband stops regularly for a few minutes and comes back on its own. Happened again on 4/6 at 01:55’-02:03’. This impacts my work and the operation of my security systems. Should I be looking to switch provider?

  • martypitts12 marty pitts (@martypitts12) reported

    @Plusnet I want to cancel terrible service

  • cockylad graham greaves (@cockylad) reported

    @Plusnet how do i change payment method? Says in help that you can use cc but payment details dont seem to be editable.

  • crofton1973 JH (@crofton1973) reported

    @DaveWallsworth @SkyHelpTeam @OpenreachHelp Nope. I moved back to BT after trying Vodafone, Plusnet amd Sky. Even though it all comes down the same line, other people in the village have problems and aren't on BT. I know they are not the cheapest but are extremely reliable. Cheap is not always best.

  • paulm19822012 Paul McGee M0WNU (@paulm19822012) reported from Richmond, England

    A few annoyances today, overcharged by a few pounds by Plusnet (a charge they said they'd apply in July) and the incompetent morons at Northern Powergrid sending me emails about the future of the network that they fail to maintain, not sure how the latter got my email address

  • Gil_Bertino Gilbert (@Gil_Bertino) reported

    @Plusnet 3 months and 4 engineer visits to resolve an ongoing broadband fault, and its returned. Can I get an escalation? Can I get a senior engineer? Can I speak to someone senior? No, no and (what a surpirse) no. By far the worst organisation and service I've ever encountered.

  • krlstrngr Karl Stringer (@krlstrngr) reported

    @Plusnet No time of day is better/worse, and only 1 other network in range so no congestion. Speeds over wired connection when working from home can be painfully slow at times, and WiFi range is terrible. I have never had problems with Virgin or Zen in the past.

  • JontyPearce Jonty Pearce (@JontyPearce) reported

    Over 3 days with no Business Broadband from @plusnet. Nobody seems to be taking ownership of the problem. This is really poor customer service.

  • poisonmonkey1 Poisonmonkey (@poisonmonkey1) reported

    @Plusnet hi my Internet has been down for most of the day and so has a second line which comes into the same property (both with Plusnet), could you investigate?
