Thanks Sayit for bringing this topic back to life, I completely forgot about it.
To quote what MisterW just posted:
Sometimes adding the 'dun' option to the APN type will work. If not then use the 2nd option in colin_maybe's link above. I.e the settings put global tether_dun_required 0
I can confirm this works on an Alcatel Pixi3 and also on a ZTE Blade A110, both unrooted phones. Thank you.

DUN and done! Such a simple answer thank you!
@Sayit happy that the simple option worked. TBH I've not had great success with that option, it usually needs the 'settings' fix. I must admit, I tried the DUN option on my new phone recently and it didn't work, I had to do the settings fix.
Why couldn't plusnet tell me that on the phone...
I can't really answer that, I would have expected them to be able to suggest the DUN option I wouldn't have expected them to suggest the settings option as that is Android specific and does require USB debugging.

The links to the quick install ADB shell for PC needed (a lot simpler than it sounds) are here:
