Re: Broadband very slow today

So annoying - I've done everything except install a new router - because they can't/won't admit an issue!!

Looking at the PN staff logged in here, I can only see Gandalf, who from a comment I spotted earlier is lurking at home, and David Williams (mobile phone help?)

They ARE aware, but you have to know the Service Status phone number (0800 9176714) to find this out.

Re: Broadband very slow today

Having read through some of the preceding posts I realise how lucky I am. Although I am currently struggling to reach a download speed of 1Mbs here in the cold and damp Midlands my normal speed is only just over 10Mbs. Those customers normally used to speeds of 76Mbs and now only getting a couple of Mbs must be really hacked off!

I'm getting on a bit in years now and spending at least 30 minutes on the phone waiting to be answered seems a bit of a waste of the time I have left so I guess I will just have to sit here and quietly fume and go back to my library book....

Re: Broadband very slow today

Same in Essex. 0.9 Mb/s download, upload is fine. Yet according to Plusnet there is no issue.

 

Very annoying, and the first time in 2 years that I would consider changing provider. Things go wrong, that's understandable. But don't pretend it's not happening ..

Backup to full speed here in South Somerset. Ping is a little high still but at least now as cord cutters we can actually watch some TV 🙂

Re: Broadband very slow today

Mine has also been slow in the NW London area , down to 0.9mbs (virtually useless), Plusnet can't be bothered to inform their customers which is a disgrace. Time for me to email their CEO again and create a formal complaint . If they are going to waste my time with a poor service I will waste £100's of their admin time.
