  • mrcflknr Marc Faulkner (@mrcflknr) reported from St Helens, England

    @Plusnet Very disappointed by the attitude of one of your agents when calling today with my Mum to change her payment details. She’s partially sighted and needs my assistance with reading details, yet this wasn’t acceptable and the woman was incredibly rude. 😢

  • KironReid Kiron Reid (@KironReid) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Plusnet Hello Emily & Plusnet team, just to confirm that when I arrived back on Saturday eve & my phone connected to the network,it worked for calls for the first time. It is now working fine thanks. Problem & mystery solved. So issue was not having connected in UK b4 going abroad. Kiron

    @Plusnet mobile signal has been useless since Christmas, other users are also reporting this advise

  • CroftJackie Jackie (@CroftJackie) reported from Up Holland, England

    @plusnethelp Someone called me back and then passed me onto a helpful lady. This has helped resume the internet but not the bad feeling we now have to Plusnet. We had the worst day ever being spoken to be such a rude, arrogant and pompous man who spoke spoke so rudely to myself and daughter

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Mmm. 2 days loss of service in a week. Not good. Maybe I'll speak to that nice chappie in Sheffield at PlusNet or maybe get BT Sports for free with BT Think you can do better tbh Voda do a cheap deal too...

  • LucyLoopy86 Lucy Willis (@LucyLoopy86) reported from Standish, England

    @craigr98_2016 @shornnno @Bigdav333 @LederRaptor @SkyUK Down detector is a website that gives you a rough idea about outage issues etc. So can be useful as a way to see recent issues but all I can say is bt own plusnet ...

  • SarahDixonHE Sarah Dixon (@SarahDixonHE) reported from Liverpool, England

    Best internet provider? Currently with @Plusnet and they are absolutely terrible. Can’t connect phones to the WiFi and the signal goes about 1m in the house and what you can get is slow as anything 🙄

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    Last day of the season and @plusnet have well and truly let me down! Daughter unable to revise for GCSEs, wife unable to work, and I can’t watch the footie!!! 😩

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

    @GFThompson7 @Plusnet The customer service is scandalous mate

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

  • Shaunmc40 Shaun Mc (@Shaunmc40) reported from Liverpool, England

    8 yrs with @sky no problems one month with @Plusnet billing issues. If you are thinking of switching to them give it a miss.

  • ChrisBr41449425 Chris. Bracken (@ChrisBr41449425) reported from Warrington, England

    @plusnet @plusnethelp You've left my elderly, shielding parents without a phone line for 48hrs now, and nothing is being done. I sat for 45mins on hold this morning to call you, and couldn't get through. At this stressful time, this isn't good enough! Any chance of a solution?

  • StoneTyres Stone Tyres (@StoneTyres) reported from St Helens, England

    PHONE LINE DOWN Please bear with us. Our @Plusnet phone line has gone down. Divert will take at least an hour to be activated. Feel free to message us on here. Apologies, we are looking for a more reliable supplier as we speak.

  • Paul_crannee Paul (@Paul_crannee) reported from Hindley, England

    @Plusnet I need to contact someone on behalf of an elderly family member whose router has stopped working, completely! No email and currently no live chat to help resolve. Please advise asap, thanks. DM me if necessary, thanks.

  • aitch5012 MickHoll (@aitch5012) reported from Liverpool, England

  • WIG1932 WIG1932 (@WIG1932) reported from Up Holland, England

    @Plusnet any issues in WN8? Download has dropped to just above 1 over the past few days. Nothing seems to fix the issue. It’s painfully slow and well below what I’m paying for. Any help appreciated!

    @Plusnet You may have nearly taken over the world but my speeds still crap.

  • pj_neris PJN (@pj_neris) reported

    @Plusnet I wrote before on the same problem but got no reply. My Broadband stops regularly for a few minutes and comes back on its own. Happened again on 4/6 at 01:55’-02:03’. This impacts my work and the operation of my security systems. Should I be looking to switch provider?

  • ralphaverbuch ralphaverbuch (@ralphaverbuch) reported

    @Plusnet Called customer service yet again this AM. What an absolute nightmare! Bounced around the system & then cut off. All the while keep being told the account I thought lasted 12 months keeps on clocking up new charges. Used the sing Plusnet's praises. Not so much now!

  • Chintan578 hiddentruth (@Chintan578) reported

    @Plusnet Mine yesterday twit hasnt been answer yet.. what you talking about...look at your broadband, extreamly slow and disconnect every minute.. Biggest mistake to join you and left @SkyHelpTeam..

  • TheWorldlyGamer Mark 🙂 (@TheWorldlyGamer) reported

    @foxyhorrorgames UGH I know that problem. We used to have Plusnet a long time ago. It was awful. :/

  • Arvin47370853 Arvin (@Arvin47370853) reported

    @Plusnet Hello there. I have had the worst, most unprofessional, disorganised experience with your company for nearly a month now. I have had to hold your hand through this whole thing. It's like I'm working to provide you a good service, not the other way round. Why is this?

  • ivywindows Richard Longden (@ivywindows) reported

    @Plusnet very disappointed with Plusnet, will be leaving this service as soon as my contract is up, very poor customer service, waiting more than 6 months for my reward card, no one is bothered, it’s all talk talk.

  • Melissa08185438 Melissa (@Melissa08185438) reported

    @Plusnet our internet has been extremely unreliable the last week, we are constantly having to restart the router. We joined around Jan/Feb time and didn't have any issues. Will be looking at cancelling our service as soon as the contract is up at this rate, very disappointed

  • Josh_Pacey Josh Pacey 🎗 (@Josh_Pacey) reported

    @Plusnet I'm having some issues with my router crashing. Please could someone help

  • crofton1973 JH (@crofton1973) reported

    @DaveWallsworth @SkyHelpTeam @OpenreachHelp Nope. I moved back to BT after trying Vodafone, Plusnet amd Sky. Even though it all comes down the same line, other people in the village have problems and aren't on BT. I know they are not the cheapest but are extremely reliable. Cheap is not always best.
