@MisterW as I have seen you active is there any chance you can sort this please. I am trying to pay this so the grand-children don't lose internet for the schooling. Thank you.

@Cazlizzy I'm afraid I'm just a customer like you and I have no access to any account information. You really need a PlusNet staff member to fix this but they are a bit thin on the ground at the moment.
Having said that, AFAIK the problem with not being able to access your account when restricted is a bug which only seems to be apparent when accessed from a PlusNet IP. I've heard that using a VPN can allow access, so I would suspect that if you have access to a friend or relatives Non Plusnet internet (I know its difficult in the current circumstances!) then you might be able to access your account from that. If you have a mobile, then using a 4g connection to access your account may also work.
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Hi @Cazlizzy
I've temporarily removed the failed payment restriction now but it'll likely reapply tomorrow automatically.
Can you try logging into your account and seeing if you can pay online now? If there's no outstanding balance showing, I'm afraid you'd need to call us on 0800 432 0200 so we can take the payment over the phone.
Alternatively try waiting until tomorrow and access your account through a VPN (if you have one) or on mobile data.

@Cazlizzy no need to apologise, its a common misunderstanding that the Superusers and Moderators are staff. In reality we're just users who can often use our experience to help other users.
However, i see the wizard has been in and reset the restriction, hopefully allowing you to pay
