  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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…..

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • uk12345 ken (@uk12345) reported from Romford, England

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

  • ElissaT28 lis (@ElissaT28) reported

    Well done @Plusnet leaving me without internet for 5 weeks so I cannot do my NHS job, be in my home that I’m paying rent on and still charging me for the privilege of no internet and to call them for 40minutes …and I can’t cancel it - what a way to treat people

  • CrippleGirl Lisa Jonas (@CrippleGirl) reported

    @Plusnet Second person was helpful and we resolved the issue. But it doesn't deal with the fact that you don't have any contact methods other than calling. How do those customers who WFH, live alone and don't have a landline contact you if the issue is they can't make calls?

  • ScottRJBasher Scott RJ Basher (@ScottRJBasher) reported

    @Plusnet ....I've left plusnet now! I gave you guys over a month to fix and you didn't seem particularly concerned during that time. I even had to buy a temporary sim card while I was waiting for you to fix. Thx for the afterthought #plusnet #plusnetfail

  • funkaygibbo John Gibbons (@funkaygibbo) reported

    @Plusnet So how many other websites is this issue stopping me from viewing ? This is quite annoying as often use Screwfix for DIY.

  • dorisdoodle Sue McKechnie (@dorisdoodle) reported

    @Plusnet Oh dear! Your agent told my son-in-law today no Internet till 28th November - they moved in on 6th October!! My daughter is s/emp graphic designer. This is a disaster and grim customer service. Please, please help.

  • markdavidwaites Mark David Waites (@markdavidwaites) reported

    @Plusnet My internet connection keeps dropping out, only resetting the router helps. I think I need a fix. MK45

  • sketchseven chris 💉 x 3 (@sketchseven) reported

    It's so bad that even Broadband Speed Checker simply doesn't work. We've had PlusNet engineers out twice and both times they've checked that the internal stuff works (which it does) and so the problem is external. Can you get an engineer to look at the box? Nope.

  • ashleybenstead Ashley Benstead (@ashleybenstead) reported

    @Plusnet over an hour. Still nothing on your own status page or anywhere else about this MSO. How major does an issue need to be before you add it?

  • HoldenMadickie Holden (@HoldenMadickie) reported

    @Plusnet Can I strongly recommend you suggest that people trying to sign up with you DISABLE ADBLOCK first? It blocked a pop-up about the internet filter (the one I had already opted out of) which seemingly guaranted the entire process to fail.

  • JaneinWoodford Jane 💙 (@JaneinWoodford) reported

    @Plusnet am at the end of my tether with crap broadband, minimal connectivity & continually dropping out 24/7. No help from customer service. Can't upgrade Apparently can't leave Are you going to do anything about it or just take my money?
