    If you want a new broadband supplier don’t go to @Plusnet We @MarkOneMusic & I did. We had a broadband problem in Nov 2020 & reported it. It’s now almost Feb we still have broadband issues & no landline. 3 @OpenreachHelp engineers in house, way more outside. #useless

  • Smith_SM30 Sheila Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 #AlwaysEuropean (@Smith_SM30) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @phil__stanmore No, just tested via phone. I could try checking the line, yes, but I'm not convinced PlusNet are giving me the best service tbh.

  • Mento56 Mento5 (TAFKAB) (@Mento56) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @DwyKev @virginmedia Their appalling customer service was the one thing that made me decide to stick with Plusnet rather than switch to them, despite a very attractive offer.

  • bairdyblues Bairdy 💙 (@bairdyblues) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @cardiffstu @Gazman1927 They offered me £28 for 18mth contract. I pay £27 with Plusnet . In the 5 plus years I've been with them I've had no issues with service albeit the WiFi drops out occasionally but a router reboot sorts that.

  • MjphotoInfo Peter James Morgan (@MjphotoInfo) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @Plusnet you pride yourself on customer service yet have kept me waiting 26 minutes on the phone and my broadband speed is not good :( - disappointed

  • SianPW14 Sian Parry Weeks 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇦 (@SianPW14) reported from Penarth, Wales

    Anyone else having issues with their Plusnet connection this morning? Router has blue light on but no WiFi connection

    @robertmain_ @plusnethelp Plusnet does support dialup yes. It might work better than VDSL the way things are currently going

  • TheEnbyperor ⧖🔶🏳️‍🌈✨impl Cat for Q (it/its)✨🏳️‍🌈🔶⧖ (@TheEnbyperor) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @robertmain_ @plusnethelp Honestly who knows, plusnet seem to suffer from general incompetence from my one (1) days experience trying to use their service

  • Tim_JC Tim Clarke (@Tim_JC) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @Plusnet you having issues in BS23 area today. Major issues and I'm working from home. Not the service we signed up for.

  • true_gent78 Dale Tucker (@true_gent78) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Anyone else having Internet issues with @plusnethelp @Plusnet in #cardiff area? #plusnet

  • STEVEOLUCKY7 Steveo Davies (@STEVEOLUCKY7) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @Plusnet how do i find out when my contract is up.. i hate awful service and was promised it would be better if I renewed and its not any better at all. I have done all the fault finding and still no better, have to keep resetting the router at least 6 times a day

  • leighcanham Leigh Canham (@leighcanham) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Mobile network in Cardiff has been down for hours. I've had to get a taxi to my 90 year old mother's house to check on her, who is also a #plusnet customer. We depend on telephone communication! No update or explanation from @plusnethelp @Plusnet #PlusnetProblems

  • doizzy Lizzy Kemp (@doizzy) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @Plusnet i messaged plusnet help a few days ago no response. Signed up to you guys paid my first month haven’t heard about when you are going to switch my internet ?

  • bairdyblues Bairdy 💙 (@bairdyblues) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @Gazman1927 @cardiffstu Virgin Media have recently installed cable around here and have been pestering me to sign up. Think I'll stick with Plusnet who have excellent customer service.

  • ABFlynn13 Aine Flynn (@ABFlynn13) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Frequent outages, sometimes for hours at a time, painfully slow speeds when it does work, and it's impossible to get hold of you for help @Plusnet #plusnet

  • true_gent78 Dale Tucker (@true_gent78) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Plusnet is there an issue with mobile? I’m unable to make any outgoing calls

  • 50shadesofcoch derw (@50shadesofcoch) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @purpperil @Plusnet @plusnethelp I had 4 msgs delivered today, all sent by sender yesterday. Not downloading emails, can't connect to Twitter - all they said was "nobody else has rung in with the same complaint". Offered 20p for "loss of service".

  • sophoftheyear Soph(isticated) (@sophoftheyear) reported

    @Plusnet Update: Just been told that the issue has been going on for weeks and that I need to sit tight... As a new customer, I am really not impressed and don't think I will be recommending @Plusnet to any friends/family.

  • vtrenkic Vladivar 🐊 (@vtrenkic) reported

    @preparetomeet @Plusnet It appears to be some catastrophic failure - @Plusnet should issue a tweet on this as too many people affected

  • Blowpobbs Blowpobbs 🇺🇦 (@Blowpobbs) reported

    @Plusnet has to be hands down the worst provider I’ve ever had. Constant connection problems, SO frustrating! Not good. #Plusnetdown

  • gmorgan2405 Gill Morgan (@gmorgan2405) reported

    @Plusnet Can't receive phonecalls since 11:20am today. Any known issues? Have sent a DM.

  • Annabelbates Annabel Bates (@Annabelbates) reported

    @plusnet, you’ve been taking money from us for almost a year despite us trying to cancel the account. You’ve just sorted out our refund, but have said you’re not able to offer interest on the amount nor any sort of apology gift for your mistake. Please can you explain?

  • silidt Si (@silidt) reported

    @Plusnet Mobile phone problems. I can ring out but cannot receive from certain other providers. Plusnet Support number not working

  • alcastle01 Big Al 🟨⬛️🟥 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@alcastle01) reported

    Anyone else got no mobile signal with @Plusnet ???

  • SimonWeekes Simon Weekes (@SimonWeekes) reported

    @Plusnet I have a billing issue. Can you help?

  • sophoftheyear Soph(isticated) (@sophoftheyear) reported

    Been without a working phone now since Friday, due to issues moving my old number over to @Plusnet. Been trying to call customer support all week, but with little luck. One advisor just hung up on me instead of putting me on hold. When is this going to get sorted out PLEASE

  • JacarandaGirl72 Jacaranda Girl (@JacarandaGirl72) reported

    Hands down, worst customer service experience ever. #Plusnet owe me over £100 in credits but can't process their own billing service so have restricted my broadband until I pay £20. Which I have done - just in order to keep WFH etc but I will be leaving them as ASAP. Inept.
