Was working OK this am
have restarted phone multiple times and reseated sim, even refreshed networks
Calls out just end with a call forwarding active message
Calls in just end
cant even call 150
Tries selcting 2g/3g only - same (but signal stronger LOL)
can only connect to plusnet (which I was doing) not ee network anymore - sure i could connect to ee before
Online advisers 'all busy try later'
Is this widespread?
UPDATE
SEEMS TO BE WORKING AGAIN (FOR NOW) - 14:50
Still sweet Mrs Adams on status page
https://plusnet.servicestatus.net/plusnet/status
Update 2
Status page has now been updated on this issue - after its fixed and hours at least after it started (perhaps days for some)
No mention on status page of this https://community.plus.net/t5/Mobile/Plusnet-data-outage-linked-to-EE-network/m-p/1593539/highlight/... one perhaps as fewer people posted here about it
Pretty disgraceful for a communications company. Although undoubtedly better for Plusnet image and compensation claims.
UPDATE 3
Status page claims issue first occurred at 2:52PM today
- which would appear to be false - I was getting failed calls in and out at 1:30 - and have the txts to prove it, John reports noticing issues at 13:10. (as well as the time of this post and the clogged up chat and phone lines before this post)
and the post above (update 2) was reporting very similar issues for some yesterday

Thanks for that Garyy
I wondered as all online chat clogged up.
Shame plusnet cant let folk know - like they didnt when the numbers they gave out weren't registered on VM networks

Yep, same problem with my phone. Lost mine mid call about 13.10.
Can dial but call ends instantly and phoning in gives a continuous tone (as if phone cut off)
Spent 20 mins on help line (using landline) until a guy answered and said he would put me through to mobile help - at which point I was cut off
First issue I have ever encountered with PlusNet Mobile after a year of useage

Thanks Garyy ,
I totally agree if there was recorded message on the phone advising callers of the fault like the electricity companies do it would help the callers and cut down on waiting time for other callers
Strange thing the current usage was not updating yesterday now the system is down

Same problem with both my wife’s and my phone. We only joined Plusnet mobile on 30th Oct 2018 on a SIM Only 30 day contract. At first I thought we had been disconnected because the 30 days are up! It’s a slight relief to know we are not the only ones experiencing problems. Hopefully it will be sorted soon.

You mean like here
https://plusnet.servicestatus.net/plusnet/status
Which is where I went before spending 10 minutes on a SIP line waiting for support to tell me they already know about a network problem.
An hour later I still can't make any calls and that page is still showing "No open events" - what is the point?

Yep I looked there first too
Seems repeated issues over some time with 'the ee network they piggyback on' for various customers - none of which are reported to customers
Makes you wonder just how many times we have not had a network and simply didn't know we were missing calls.

Thought it was just me having issues, but looks like I am not alone.
I hope that PN will be making some kind of gesture to keep those affected happy.
Edit - I have tried calling my own number and it does not even go to voicemail. It just makes a long tone, like the number is not available or has been cut-off.

Plusnet can credit me a fiver to cover my payg asda sim - which also piggy backs on ee but still works fine.

Same here, and extra annoyed that they haven't bothered to update their service status page 😕
I just joined Plusnet from Vodafone after being with them for years, and never having a single outage. Not a great start.

Frustrating... I also have same problem .. come on Plusnet..a bit of sensible messaging on website would prevent your call centre begun bombarded.
AND allow the customers to manage the situation better
like anyone waiting for a call to go collect a family member.
