The microsoft sites issue is being discussed in another thread on these forums. Seems to be an issue with the IP address you are allocated to connect to PlusNet.
Take a look at: https://community.plus.net/t5/Fibre-Broadband/Unable-to-access-any-Microsoft-sites/td-p/1771295

Hi @Cazlizzy
First to be clear, I am just a user like you and I have no means of changing your situation. That would be down to a staff member such as @Gandalf
The supper users have failed payment issues under discussion with Plusnet at the moment. Whilst there are recognised issues for some users who have fallen into failed payment, for the majority, having either a direct debit or payment card registered on the account, to pay invoices when presented, totally eliminates situations similar to this.
Payment is due on presentation of the the invoice. There is no 14 days "grace" period as many believe incorrectly. If a user has no automatic payment facility in place then their account will fall into failed payment as soon as the invoice is raised.
On days 1-13 of failed payment, users should get a reminder splash screen which invites them to pay, which they can acknowledge and continue browsing.
On the 14th day of failed payment browsing restrictions will be applied and they will probably need to phone to pay. However as in the current circumstances, many agents are working from home, that might be problematic, for agents working at home are not permitted to process card payments both for the user's security and PCI-DSS rules.
When you say that the bill was "due" on the 13th, is that the day the invoice was raised ... or the date that you believe you do not have to pay until because of a belief in a 14 days grace period? It is down to users to manage their cash flow to pay bills when presented. If a different billing date would make managing their cash flow easier, then the user portal (under manage my bill) allows users to set their own billing dates. Expecting a supplier to defer receiving payment is akin to expecting them to take a bank loan on behalf of the user who needs an extended cash flow ... or their own overdraft arrangements.
As above, the decision of availing help here is a matter for Plusnet staff. The above explains the failed payment process and options available to avoid these inconveniences.
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
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.

@Townman Ah..sorry I thought it said you were staff and usually they just sort it .Thank you for your response anyhow.
I had an e-mail telling me to pay within 14days or restrictions would be imposed. this implies a 14day grace....and just for info i usually pay with a few days.
@Gandalf If you are available could you sort this for me please.

Hi @Cazlizzy,
I'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you on here and for any inconvenience that the restriction has caused. I have raised this over to our billing team and have asked that they enable to account so that you can use your services as normal. This should be completed within the next four hours.
