  • KateRav66 Kate Ravenscroft (@KateRav66) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @plusnethelp hi, my service is due to start today and my old broadband has been disconnected but I haven’t had a text telling me my plusnet broadband is ready to set up yet. I have the router.

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    @Plusnet is your service down currently in WA14? My internet has randomly gone off then showing as on but I can’t connect any device to it?

  • adrianswimmer Adrian Hawley (@adrianswimmer) reported from Meltham, England

    @plusnet I'm trying to turn off the answer service via the online manage your account.... The account says an error has occurred "you can't change your products for the moment, you have an order which is currently being processed. Please try again later". 8 months it said this.

  • MiguelGilbert24 Miguel Gilbert (@MiguelGilbert24) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet you are the worst I ever used. I just want things to come back to normal so I can change ... never use #plusnet it’s the worst. Slow... expensive ... and no response if you call

  • tandleman Tandleman (@tandleman) reported from Middleton, England

    Getting fed up with @Plusnet who I have been with forever nearly. Every time it rains I lose my internet for a couple of minutes. When I log a fault they say it is fine now or monitor it for 2 days and close the incident. Of course it hasn't rained. Help!

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet The BT service obligations (USO) states that my postcode is capable of 10Mb speeds and therefore is not eligible for upgrade. However you can only supply sub 5Mbs service. Can you explain the difference in the two scenarios.

  • chickvonpea 🐣🐥 Sarah 🐣 🐥 (@chickvonpea) reported from Meltham, England

    @EmilyinYork @Plusnet "we'll do you proud" my arse. Dad had issues with them last year over his internet. Them and BT going back and forth blaming each other.

  • sweetiesal Sally O’Shea (@sweetiesal) reported from Sale, England

    Zero communication or update on @Plusnet website about the fact the network is clearly down across the UK- you can’t even get a dial tone when ringing their customer services either. What is going on?!

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet @plusnethelp hi, my broadband service today and yesterday has been shocking. It has cut out 8 times in the past 3 hours alone which is unacceptable as I need it to work from home (so I’ve had to use loads of my mobile data allowance). Can you please tell me when I 1/2

  • alexjb24 Alex 🐝 (@alexjb24) reported from Salford, England

    @Plusnet hello, my internet has kept cutting out all day again. My postcode is M5 4SG. This is happening far too frequently. Can you please fix it? When this happened last time you were able to fix it remotely instead of sending an engineer so hope that’s possible. Thanks

  • DavidWildJnr David (@DavidWildJnr) reported from Whitworth, England

    @Plusnet I believe the minimum speed was added AFTER installation and after I contacted you. You have dropped my speed from the original 5Mb to around 1Mb as a response to each complaint I make. Perhaps the inferstructure should be investigated. Please forward me complaints email address.

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Stockport, England

    @Plusnet In your booklet that arrives with the router, you advertise 7:30am to 10:00pm. I call you for two occasions that don’t answer for 30 minutes each. At 8pm, it tells me customer service is now closed. What terrible service. Your billing systems work great though

  • RickyCarterna Ric (@RickyCarterna) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @plusnethelp broadband swap over due today, current provider has now disconnected, PlusNet service not initiated. Cannot reach your helpline to confirm switch over. Not a good first impression.

  • groundhopper80 groundhopper80 (@groundhopper80) reported from Bury, England

    @Plusnet hello help signal is on and off for the last hour.

  • nebzy17 nebzy (@nebzy17) reported from Manchester, England

    @Plusnet Stop arsing around with this crap and answer my message to @plusnethelp - Why you got staff on football polls???? 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

  • PrintCityMMU PrintCity: 3D, Innovate, Educate, Collaborate (@PrintCityMMU) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @Plusnet My broadband should have gone live today. Internet from old ISP ceased at midnight. You promised me uninterrupted service. My wife had to take a days leave today as she works form home using MS Teams and could not connect. Awful service. How do I cancel?

  • Siftah John Baxendale (@Siftah) reported from Manchester, England

    @adechapmanlaw Problem is their phone line is crap, so PlusNet (who they were previously with) also would never get the phone line sorted and they were left with the same crappy speeds. Have signed them up with Sky fibre for less than they were paying for ADSL!

  • premnsikka Prem Sikka (@premnsikka) reported

    Picking Our Pockets: Broadband & mobile phone companies hiking prices, mid-contract, by up to 17.3% Still, receive same service. BT, EE, O2, Plusnet, Shell, Sky, TalkTalk, Three, Virgin, Vodafone acting in unison. Ofcom/Govt do nothing. Has your income increased by 17.3%?

  • acr_crm Acr_Crm (@acr_crm) reported

    @Plusnet Hi, we have signed up to Plusnet yesterday and today have received a message to call support or look on the website for help as there is a delay with our order. I have tried ringing but it tells me the phone line is closed and there is no live chat on the website?

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

    No internet on #virginmedia? Go to @Plusnet instead! I've never been let down by their @BT_uk-backed broadband.

  • Har84587860Paul Paul Harris (@Har84587860Paul) reported

    Having paid a final bill on some billing system that is beyond belief we are finaly free of @plusnet I can honestly say I have never paid so much for a service this corrupt and poor. To all you folks paying more next week they are having a laugh! enjoy.

  • 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.

  • xnsxo . (@xnsxo) reported

    @Plusnet why is your website just not working? I ordered broadband and I’m trying to track my order but can’t even do that. Could you please help so I can get an update ASAP.

  • ChristineK1968 Christine Kennedy (@ChristineK1968) reported

    @Plusnet Trying to cancel mobile account but calling just leads to you hanging up. No other options. Not the first time trying.

  • VictorMeldraw 🐾 🐈‍⬛ චᆽච Lucky Nigel Cat චᆽච 🐈‍⬛ 🐾 (@VictorMeldraw) reported

    @jo2107 @plusnethelp @Plusnet They are being too vague. (1) can U change Plusnet mobile current plan? (2) how long before Plusnet mobile moves to EE & what prices / will they protect tariffs? Bad PR to close to new customers & not reassure current.

  • Matt20945936 Matt (@Matt20945936) reported

    @Plusnet I have not received a response to my complaint in months and have today noticed a credit marker on my file

  • maviczap maviczap (@maviczap) reported

    @premnsikka Just got my lasted bill from Plusnet, up from £29 a month, to £41. Service hasn't changed, looks like I'll be switching this week as I'm out of contract.
