Inevitably there could be some very rough edges at the moment and lot of customers are probably trying to log in.
Patience is needed I think.

@spraxyt As my bill isn't due for a week, I won't be looking at the 'account/bills bit until at least a week Tuesday.

That's a very realistic approach.

"Inevitably"! What? I've been working in the IT business for nearly 40 years, and there should not be any "very rough edges". Most companies (with the notable exception of TSB!) manage upgrades without customers even noticing. Plusnet's systems came back >24 hours behind schedule, and don't actually work. Lots of pages result in server errors, and it still isn't possible to view any account information. Not good.

Completely agree. I really hope that's there now isn't anything like the final solution, the new billing pages feel like they've just been gaffer taped into the existing site structure - just feels and looks horrible.
This should all of been staged offline, the data migrated across through a slick well rehearsed process without customers being aware that it was going on.

New billing systems looks to be broken.
I go to "View your bills" and can select the date of the bill (I've tried a few) - but it doesn't display anything.
Same result via Firefox or Chrome.
Anyone else having similar problems?

“>24 hours after expected...
Where did you see that expectation set?
I am sure that with all the experience you have in IT you’ll recognise that no matter how well something as big as this has been rehearsed, doing it for real will always be a different game compared to doing it as a rehearsal.
I do not disagree that user expectations could (possibly should) have been managed differently, but the inability to access internet account information for one’s internet service is hardly comparable with TSB’s total failure of their online banking system. You can after all still use the services you have paid for.
FWIW some people have been working nearly round the clock for four days. Been there, got the tee shirt ... it’s a much easier job standing on the side lines complaining ... which help no one.
I’ve asked earlier today for service updates to be published just before the service appeared to have restarted at 1pm ... since which a service update has been published here https://plusnet.servicestatus.net/plusnet/status?_ga=2.83811348.385837034.1535223178-848874939.13781...

I think that is one of the bugs currently being worked on.
Service Status gives limited information but what there is can be found at https://plusnet.servicestatus.net/plusnet/status by clicking the blue website icon.

I received an e-mail at 9am today (my "billing" date):
We need to let you know that your September bill will be delayed by a few days.
We just wanted to drop you an email to reassure you that you won't be charged any more or less money, and your service won't be affected in any way. You'll get your usual email notifications when your bill's ready, and payment will be taken via your current method.
We hope this doesn't cause any problems, but please get in touch if you need to. Call us on 0800 432 0200
"0800 432 0200"::tel:08004320200.
