  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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?!

  • groundhopper80 groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

    @Plusnet hello help signal is on and off for the last hour.

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • katiemaeox katie (@katiemaeox) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @Plusnet internet has been off since yesterday please help?

  • sean_mvm MacCárthaigh #FBPE #MVM 🇪🇺🇮🇪🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🏴🌹 (@sean_mvm) reported from Urmston, England

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

  • aracoroneld Araceli Coronel (@aracoroneld) reported from Manchester, England

  • The40Something the 40 something (@The40Something) reported

    @MSE_Deals Don't bother. My connection was supposed to transfer from PlusNet last Thursday. Still no connection and customer services are completely powerless to help. Also not part of ofcom compensation scheme. I'll be looking for alternatives from tomorrow.

  • mcgregor_graeme Running for food (@mcgregor_graeme) reported

    So after 18 months of the absolute worst service ever from @Plusnet where they tell you your internet dropping out 5-6 times every day is not their fault and must be something to do with us, we finally switched to @virginmedia and surprise surprise, not a single problem since

  • martin_haugh Martin Haugh (@martin_haugh) reported

    @Plusnet my internet is down again since midnight ,this is the second time again , what is going on ?

    @Plusnet Its not working for me i am afraid, I would really appreciate it if you could email me or pass me your email address - is it possible for you to message me it please?

  • giftsofgraceuk Gifts of Grace (@giftsofgraceuk) reported

    @plusnet I changed my mind about upgrading and cancelled switch. Now I have text saying the new router is still being ordered. Can you cancel this for me as I no longer need it?

  • Chris55858897 Chris (@Chris55858897) reported

    VIRGIN MEDIA has ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE which is IMPOSSIBLE to communicate with via the telephone. SKY has heaps more customers but OFCOM receives heaps more complaints from Virgin Media customers which does indicate something. PLUSNET MEDIA ANSWERS CALLS WITIN 60 SECONDS.

  • richardhulme Richard Hulme (@richardhulme) reported

    @virginmedia internet costs, 21 years customer and you are now so uncompetitive. You doubled my costs to £54 for 50mb take 30 mins to speak to the team and you offer £37 cheapest deal when competitors are around £20 terrible!! @VodafoneUK @Plusnet

  • diabmaths Diabmaths (@diabmaths) reported

    @Plusnet Your customer service is absolutely shocking!

  • ecnarfi IanF (@ecnarfi) reported

    @Plusnet I usually access using pop3 in Gmail. Some emails have seemed slow to arrive lately so I wanted to connect directly and have a clear out. I had some success yesterday but it kept showing the error. Today it won't let me in at all.
