  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

    @nowtvhelp I've been told by BT that I can't uninstall NOW TV on a YouView box also it's not just me customers with BT Plusnet also got the same problem as me breaking up pictures freezing pictures I've been a lot of forums and they still complaints going on about the NOW TV app on YouView

  • 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

  • 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…..

  • miktrinh mtrinh (@miktrinh) reported from London, England

    @Plusnet broadband is down in SE23 1AN area

  • 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?

  • 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

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

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • obliquitywrites Obliquity 🖤🤍💜💛 💙🍍 (@obliquitywrites) reported

    Okay, so I'm having some really weird issues with my @Plusnet fibre. Tech people don't seem to have a clue. Can load pages and messages, but very slow and laptop says it isn't connected. Have globe icon in the corner. Updates will not run. Says no connection on Ethernet either.

  • HenryDReed ʜᴇɴʀʏ 💉☣️ #EnoughIsEnough (@HenryDReed) reported

    @Plusnet Thanks for the reminder... I need to bill you for not having service for 2 weeks and not receiving the £60 reward card.

  • obliquitywrites Obliquity 🖤🤍💜💛 💙🍍 (@obliquitywrites) reported

    @zoetunstall @matthewrayner @Plusnet I had similar problems, plus lengthy outages and being outright ignored by Virgin as well, so I wouldn't pick them, either.

  • MissKSimpson1 Miss K Simpson (@MissKSimpson1) reported

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp no broadband, again. according to the web there’s no problems in my area. What do I do once I’ve checked through everything myself as per the list on your troubleshooting?

  • zara_a86 Zara A (@zara_a86) reported

    @bt_uk Anyone here able to help me ? Aware that you guys own plusnet. We’ve been let down and messed around by them for 7 weeks now. We were due to go live on May 11th .. every time we call in we are told our order was not put through. This has happened three times now!!!

  • summattosay j (@summattosay) reported

    @Plusnet problems watching streaming. Losing connection at different times throughout the morning. Think you should know. It's very annoying.

  • inneedoftea inneedoftea (@inneedoftea) reported

    @Plusnet Help please - have followed all instructions to reset router and it’s been over 24 hours since my internet worked.

  • TafftheVoice Any chance of the referendums? (@TafftheVoice) reported

    @LouiseScottACTS Plusnet. Aside from I pay £18 p/m for fast (ultimately BT) broadband, the customer service is great. Speak to a human pretty instantly.

  • _georgey georgey 💭 (@_georgey) reported

    hi @Plusnet - i want to cancel my contract but i don’t want to be on the phone for an hour giving excuses why i want to leave - can i do it over message?

  • sarahdot007 sarah thomas (@sarahdot007) reported

    Attend a lecture sat next to my router as it was too slow again!. Someone tell me I can cancel this poor service without exorbitant costs so I can return to @Plusnet!
