  • rider45 Brian O'Keefe (@rider45) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @K_Katastrophe @DebbieFletcher @bt_uk Plusnet is separate from BT but owned by them, I think you’ll find with the big companies that customer service is poor, especially now with many call centres cut back, I’ve been with BT broadband since 2001 not let me down thus far.

  • GMan40555684 GMan (@GMan40555684) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Hi, I’ve had Plusnet for about 4 months and despite my calls to you have no service outside my living room where my router is, this is awful and we have to use our own data indoors. Can you help please

  • Skypirate_ 🎩 Luke Ray ルーク レイ (@Skypirate_) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    So nobody been living in this flat since last year but apparently there was a cease order on my phone line? What ********? I'm guessing someone in the plusnet team doesn't 100% know what they are talking about.

  • JSDBroughton jnthn (permanently broken) (@JSDBroughton) reported from London, England

    @plusnethelp no online chat and not even a call queue available. We’ve had no internet for most of today (intermittently up). Line fault troubleshooting says no problem with the phone line (plusnet line rental) What’s the best course of action? SE6

  • theexterminato9 The Exterminator Pest Control (@theexterminato9) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @Plusnet why is the Internet speed shocking, been bad for a few days. And no nothing has changed inside the property

  • cfurneaux Chris Furneaux (@cfurneaux) reported from London, England

    Hi @Plusnet my internet is down. Your website says phone lines open until 10pm but phone line closed and says only open until 8pm. How do I get support now?

  • LinJaneThe2 Sir Alex of the Knight 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺♿💙 (@LinJaneThe2) reported from London, England

    @plusnet I am having increasing problems watching videos. This has been going on for a while, can't even watch one on here without it stopping at least twice during a 2min video. Have tried resetting hub and clearing up phone, doesn't make any difference. Help?

  • theexterminato9 The Exterminator Pest Control (@theexterminato9) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @Plusnet Another day and another evening of useless so called fibre b/b. When can we leave this poor excuse of a service to a decent one

  • Pebblepower23 Katherine (@Pebblepower23) reported from Romford, England

    @plusnethelp @Plusnet no wife for 12 hrs and no helpline to call. Makes WFH a problem #$%$ done all tests by on site IT husband.....#help #annoyed #WiFi

  • Wattsit01 Vikki (@Wattsit01) reported from Swanley, England

    @plusnethelp I've just noticed I cannot connect to my WiFi on my android phone in the front room of my house today. Wasn't an issue yesterday. Only upgraded to Plusnet this year to help with home schooling and haven't received the promised speeds either. Any suggestions?

  • lewis_hardwick Lewis Hardwick (@lewis_hardwick) reported from Crayford, England

    So I joined @Plusnet @plusnethelp a couple of months ago. Now every evening this week at about 9pm, my internet becomes unstable. But try calling them "sorry we close at 8pm". Time to cancel my Direct Debit? That might get their attention! What a joke.

  • kate_marr Kate Marr (@kate_marr) reported from Gravesend, England

    @Plusnet I want to cancel but I can't get through!

  • charfranklin_ Char x (@charfranklin_) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    And once again for the 10000th time since joining @Plusnet the WIFI is down again 😡 absolute joke!! Worst decision we ever made was switching to you in October ! @plusnethelp

  • Blitzwalker Steve Hunnisett (@Blitzwalker) reported from London, England

    @greenwichguide @maryorelse Mine does that too (Plusnet). I appreciate more people are working from home but the past couple of weeks, it’s been really slow and unreliable.

  • cfurneaux Chris Furneaux (@cfurneaux) reported from London, England

    @Plusnet internet still down! Unfortunately as an existing customer paying you already I’m not looking to sign up again so there is no one to tell that your service is down. Hopefully you know

  • NortysTweets Angeline Clean (@NortysTweets) reported from London, England

    Recently moved. Cancelled my broadband with #plusnet. If you don’t pay up the contract in 14 days, your account sent to collection agency. No discussion available, no chance of a discount. £140 to terminate…..

  • bhavanr Bhavan Ramanathan (@bhavanr) reported from Billericay, England

    @plusnethelp hi..pls could you let me know how I can cancel BT Sport via the Plusnet site?

  • utkhan79 Usman (@utkhan79) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @Plusnet my home internet is down and so is your website. Any issues at the back end?

    @esarty Hi Steve, I've just made some changes to your account to patch up the broadband issue until we get your new account up and running. Would you mind giving this another try and confirming if the broadband is working? - Cal, Plusnet Leeds

  • KarenjaneLynch Karen Lynch (@KarenjaneLynch) reported

    @TUIUK this morning we had an email from @Plusnet saying do you know you spend £23 on calls yesterday!!! this was on with you guys trying to change our booking and then cut off. still no resolution. Are those charges even legal? #ripoff why wont you call us back? @SimonCalder

  • anuja2015 Anuja Chatterjee (@anuja2015) reported

    @slash_addicted @Plusnet Same for me. Have been on the phone to them. Tried resetting router, passwords etc. They are sending engineer on Tuesday. The earliest they could do. Frustrating as I work from home. Hope they can resolve the issue. Seems an area wide problem?

  • SamTurrell Sam Turrell (@SamTurrell) reported

    @lab_2402 @Plusnet Seems like it’s a problem with plusnet, sky and talk talk, so seems like an open reach problem across york. But nobody is acknowledging there’s an issue, just recommending that people book engineers which won’t come until Friday next week. People need the internet to work

  • SamTurrell Sam Turrell (@SamTurrell) reported

    @Plusnet 8am-8pm daily my arse. What ******** have your customer service team been doing all day?! Absolutely shocking display

  • HonourMatopoeia Honourmatopoeia (@HonourMatopoeia) reported

    @thebojko @Plusnet I noticed this, too. Look at the section of your bill headed "Your charges broken down". My contract ends 28 Feb, but the billing period runs 6 Feb to 5 Mar. The extra amount I've been charged is to cover the period 29 Feb to 5 Mar.

  • esarty Esarty (@esarty) reported

    So @Plusnet gave us internet for the week of the move - then today, when we’re due to be back working from home, they’ve switched it off again, and aren’t sure how long it’ll be before they can switch it back on. Absolutely shambolic service from them over the last two weeks.

  • slash_addicted Sharon (@slash_addicted) reported

    @SamTurrell @anuja2015 @Plusnet Just heard from friends in Clifton and Copmanthorpe who are having problems as well so obviously a widespread issue.

  • wkeenan Wayne (@wkeenan) reported

    I love your service @Plusnet but your out of contract broadband and mobile roaming charges take the piss, goodbye x

  • TedUrchin Ted Smith 🇪🇺 (@TedUrchin) reported

    @Plusnet I was with Plusnet for years, great company, easy to contact, recommended them to friends and family, but then it all went downhill. Poor customer service and had to beg them to replace the old router when it went on the blink and they wanted to charge me for it!
