    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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • anyaebgair Anya Gair (@anyaebgair) reported from London, England

    Nice to know that I’m still waiting for my WiFi from @Plusnet. Was supposed to be sorted on the 19th, then 23rd now moves to 25th. Unreliable, unsatisfactory service

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

    @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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • CharlesTilley Charles Tilley (@CharlesTilley) reported from Rochford, England

    @Plusnet can you DM me, having big problems

  • 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?

  • 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

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

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

  • deniseessex denise salman (@deniseessex) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @plusnethelp having problem with broadband setup. new customer as of 26 March. should have been up & running today, seamlessly. Plusnet hub has blue light but no broadband. Not impressed. Previous provider, Daisy working 100% on Wednesday. Please DM ASAP, order no: 0-3905409.

  • NarmeenRehman Narmeen~*~*🌱 (@NarmeenRehman) reported

    @Plusnet hi I tried to put an order through a few time but it wasn’t going through and now I see I’ve been charged twice. Please could you help to cancel one?

  • MrYiff Nick Cunningham (@MrYiff) reported

    @GeekByteUK Welcome to my world of Plusnet, they tried sending out a "new" router that helped a little bit, switching to vodafone in a couple of weeks as for less than what I currently pay I get a better router that includes backup 4g if it has issues

  • RoboScorpion Nick H. 🇺🇦♥️🇬🇧♥️🇪🇺 #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@RoboScorpion) reported

    @Plusnet Of course, it will bear little resemblance to the coverage you actually experience, as all the coverage prediction maps are based on theoretical modelling by computer, and not real-world signal data.

  • MirelaTsacheva Mirela Tsacheva (@MirelaTsacheva) reported

    @MarcAspinall Plusnet has been the best of all providers I've used and, their customer service was prompt.

  • secretagent00sg shaun (@secretagent00sg) reported

    Any one else have problems with #plusnet ? Signal wifi poor ? Hope they fix it

  • christoffski82 Chris Devlin (@christoffski82) reported

    @Plusnet Any danger of a reply to my DM? Been 24hours and I’m still waiting, award winning customer service my arse!
