I rebooted my router when this heppened and no imrovement. I have not touched the router since, as was told to leave it for 72 hours. There is no improvement.
I cannot even open a webpage with 16kbps. It goes between 400 - 16kbps

More constructively what are the stats from your router - noise margin, speeds and attenuation
Look here if you need help in getting them http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,96155.0.html

I've just done a quick check on your details and spotted an obvious issue.
As demonstrated in the graph below your connection was subject to some dropouts a few days ago and this has caused the line profile and to lower and subsequently your experience of the speed of your connection.
As the connection seems to have restabilised over the past few days I've decided to submit an SNR reset to see if that brings the line profile back up and fix the issue.
The reset should take effect within a couple of hours so do test the speeds again and let us know how things are.

Can you please sort this tomorrow if there is no change by the morning? I was under the impression that Openreach would be sorting this out and was hoping the SNR reset would sort it first...

Sorry to see that the SNR reset did help with that.
This may have been covered when you've called us but I'm not sure why there's an impression that things are going around in circles, to clarify we do our best to respond to all faults raised within 72 hours, I'm not a faults agent but thought it best to intervene in the meantime as I could see an obvious issue, I'm sorry that hasn't helped but I will investigate that further and see what else we can do to resolved that for you. Failing that I'll do my best to request that the faults team respond formally today as that hasn't happened yet.
We do appreciate that you're finding this a very frustrating experience and we'll continue to do what we can, problems such as this can't always be rectified quickly or on the first attempt I'm afraid. I'll make sure I keep in touch with you today as this is being looked into.
All the best,
Adam

I have just found out that I was told a complete fabrication by CS link:csa removed yesterday when he told me that if the snr reset had made no difference to my broadband, to call in the morning and I would not be made to wait another 72 hours following this. I did so and was fobbed off again by Ben and have just been now told that Rob should not have said this and it was going to take another 72 hours. Can nobody be honest at Plusnet??This has been going on and on and on. I have been fobbed off and shoved around from ***** to **** since I started my new package in April- which actually did not even happen, although I had an email to say it had started in June.
Lies and more lies continually and consistantly. This is the last straw. No wonder I am so angry and posting over and over in the forum. The frustration and anxiety this causes when you cannot get through to someone to actually do something to help without lying through their teeth is just too much.
This organsation is turning into another major isp beginning with T... T. They are the just the same and that is why I left them. As soon as they get a bit bigger it all gets out of control and turns into a mess.Because of this total nightmare from day one I should be able to leave PN with no penalties as I was not given the chance to cancel the contract due to the contract not having started at all, despite them emailing me to say it had done.
I have contacted OFCOm and will be taking htis to the ombudsman now. This is not just about thecurrent fault I have with my broadband, but about the horrendous service given by PN nowadays, May I add that everyone at PN is always polite though.

It is correct unfortunately that the SNR reset didn't take effect, a further one submitted today doesn't seem to have resolved the issue either unfortunately. I'm sorry for the misinformation you were given, anything that's ocurred between the fault being raised and it being picked up by our faults team should not mean waiting another 72 hours so I've no idea why that's been mentioned.
Going forwards, as much as I'd like to I'm unable to pick this issue up personally but I will go and speak with our faults team as this issue does require there attention. I understand how you feel but I don't feel that chasing this in the meantime will help your situation.
