Hi
Its been a very long time since I was a plus net customer however myself and my dad have been using the plus net email addresses without a problem until today.
Using outlook my dad has tried to logon using the same password (saved in outlook) but it will not let him logon. The password is 100% correct as it hasn't been changed in outlook.
I have tried using webmail for both mine and my dads and we just keep getting the same logon error.
My dads email is an additional mailbox on my. I cannot access the customer login.
Not so much an issue for me as I have since changed to Gmail but my dad doesnt like change being an old un.
Any ideas thanks

Hi @T1000
A warm welcome to the forums. For total clarity, are you referring to @account.plus.com email addresses or one of the multitude of legacy vISP mail addresses?
Are you saying that you cannot log into the user portal with your account-name and password?
Is this an active Plusnet (paid for) account or just a legacy mail only account?
What happens of you send an email to dad@youraccount.plus.com from Gmail - do you get a Non-Delivery-Report (NDR)? The receipt on a NDR might indicate a fundamental issue with the account.
The fact that you cannot log in via webmail (using account-name or account-name+dad) somewhat eliminates the likelihood that Outlook is encountering an network issue which is 'presents' as being a password error.
Which version of Outlook does your dad use?
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
