  • 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 switchover? What ********? I'm guessing someone in the plusnet team doesn't 100% know what they are talking about.

  • 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.

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

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

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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @Plusnet can you DM me, having big problems

  • 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.

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

    @Plusnet How is it seamless when my perfectly working line doesn’t have any signal now. Plus net was supposed to take over yesterday and now my line is dead with no dial tone let alone any internet.

  • 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?

  • pprinplup2 Percy The Prinplup 💙 🐀 (@pprinplup2) reported

    I've not been paid by either BT or Plusnet to tweet this. I'm just a customer who's sharing their experience.

  • MadgeOrrity J Brown 💙💛 (@MadgeOrrity) reported

    @AdvocateforJus4 @Only9built I'm not sure. Lots of people seem to like TalkTalk but we had a bad experience with them.. Conversely, we did okay with PlusNet, although their reviews online aren't as good. I liked that they had UK Call Centres so they seemed better staffed at times when we needed help.

  • carolbradycpcm Carol Brady MBE (@carolbradycpcm) reported

    @nocaresgiven22 @birmingham_live No plusnet. The wifi and hub is fine and all other devices and tvs working. Known issue with Sony apparently and it’s driving me nuts as we can’t watch anything other than terrestrial tv 😖

  • AlisonRoyles Alison Royles (@AlisonRoyles) reported

    @KazzyAnnie1 We've had plusnet for years. Never had any major gripes with them.

  • beaker9 David White (@beaker9) reported

    @virginmedia Been with @VirginMedia less than a month. Nothing but trouble and today - nothing at all. Will be seeking to cancel and go back to @Plusnet who were amazing. I'd rather have perfect 40Mbps than rarely there 250Mbps.

  • SteveFforde Steve Fforde 🖤🤍💜 (@SteveFforde) reported

    @virginmedia This morning's was the tipping point for me, I've switched to @Plusnet, please could you get your call centre back up so I can cancel my contract!

  • nigebill Nigel Billington (@nigebill) reported

    @Plusnet presently in France, I can use data but unable to make calls,can you help.

  • lindafraser13 linda fraser (@lindafraser13) reported

    @Plusnet I sent you a DM at 12.46 yesterday (3/4/2023) and it’s now 17.26 on 4/4/2023 and I’ve had no reply. Terrible customer service

  • Oscargetsit Oscar (@Oscargetsit) reported

    @KazzyAnnie1 Plusnet are by far the best I have had for years. Never an issue, fair pricing for the best speed packages and don’t bombard you with emails. In my life I have dealt with Virgin companies 3 times, each time has been a nightmare, they will never get a penny out of me again.

  • RMadden85 Richard Madden (@RMadden85) reported

    @BeaumontDMD During my 18 months with them I didn't actually require customer services so can't comment lol. I left them for Plusnet in 2020 as they were a lot cheaper for broadband and landline calls, think it was £25.99 but I got a £75 Pre-paid debit card.
