The connection has been reset several time by ourselves to try to force a new IP as its constantly been in the problematic range (as informed by PlusNet). This has now dropped our line profile this morning down to 20mb!! It used to be around 38- 56mb. We are also capable of 56mb, according to BT engineer testing the line at our premises, and what we've experienced before network changes.
Please someone from plusnet, be nice to us and just give it a try...better than losing a customer.

Sorry to hear there are others in the same boat.
We were told someone made the choice to migrate some customers onto new networks (new IP range). This may well be the cause of our issues going back weeks.
I've updated my support question and told them the price we're prepared to pay per month to get a better speed. If they don't respond to that, then its clear they have problems they cannot solve, which I dearly hope they can as we like PlusNet customer service.
Will update this thread when I know more.

Thanks for the update, please do let me know if it is sorted and i will do likewise, i also have been looking at competitors and while as you say they are more expensive all i want is a good reliable broadband.

Just been asked to change our username. We've been posting here for a long time, but never been told off. How do we even change our username?
I've just checked and we've had this username since 2012!

Thats interesting, so i thought i would do the same check and found that my estimated speed for standard broadband is estimated at 4.5mb-11mb with a guaranteed minimum of 3mb yet my IP profile is actually set at 0.51mb which struggles to load up basic websites let alone trying to stream anything.

Ive just found my broadband speed confirmation when i joined plusnet it says:-
Now that your service has now been active for 14 days, we thought we'd let you know the speed as it stands today, by way of comparison.
Estimated line speed: 11Mbps
Current line speed: 10.3Mbps
Yet my IP profile is now set at 0.51mb!
Please plusnet reset our IP profiles this has been going on for to long now and ive had enough of this as i think the other poster in this thread has.

@theFlash - Unfortunately we're not able to remotely reset the BT Speed profile on Fibre connections. This can only be done by an engineer visiting the cabinet and they will generally only do this after visiting the property to make sure there's nothing at fault that will cause DLM to just bring the profile back down after this.
The profile on our side is actually set higher than your Sync speed at the moment.

@aPNuser - Looks like DLM has applied chronic banding to your line. Likely due to all the disconnections on your line a few weeks ago:

@HarryB - many thanks, I have regained my faith in Plusnet, one question which is troubling me, your post shows i have had a few sessions close and reopen since 4pm on sat 16 July when i know my router has been on 24/7 since then, is this a normal occurrence or is this something i should be concerned about?
Many thanks again four your assistance

Those few disconnections since the 16th July aren't a big cause for concern to be honest. It's normal for broadband to drop now and then. I would say 3-4 drops per day over a 72 hour period could need looking into as a fault. However it's usually done on a case by case basis.
