Hi 'maria92', and welcome to the forum
Try reading through these guides - Connection troubleshooting - Plusnet Fibre and Speed troubleshooting - Plusnet Fibre
but to be honest, if I were you, I would follow the Plusnet Brooadband Troubleshooter, as this will collect all the information the fault investigation engineers require before they can help you - when they return to work on Tuesday.
Now you are on the forum, keep asking questions as there is always someone that will make a helpful suggestion

You MUST get that noise fixed BEFORE trying to resolve broadband related problems !.
Is your PHONE service with Plusnet or another provider ?
You need to contact your phone service provider and report a noisy line, BUT if your phone service is NOT with Plusnet then don't mention that it is causing a broadband problem - as it is common for the phone provider to suddenly become uninterested in fixing the fault and blame your broadband provider (and vice-versa).

Perhaps you should also login to your account and Report a Telephone Fault, and answer the questions on that page.

Speaking from experience, until your phone line is completely clear (in all weathers), there's no point trying anything else.
I had 72mb+ for 2 years, until 5 weeks ago when my phone line started to crackle, now the line won't even stay up reliably, especially when its wet and windy.
