Live Chat – reduced opening hours

As you’ll be aware, our Live Chat facility has been unavailable for a number of days. We’re really pleased to confirm we’ll be switching this back on but for reduced opening hours. Chat will be available 12-4 Wed/Thu/Fri this week but with no availability on weekends. We’ll be reviewing performance to make a decision on Thursday and will communicate that decision later this week.

 

We apologise for the continued degraded service and assure you we’re working incredibly hard to get this back up & running ASAP.

 

For customers who struggle to use the phone, we have Next Generation Text Relay services available – please visit https://www.plus.net/help/legal/support-for-customers-with-disabilities/ for more information

Re: Live Chat – reduced opening hours

Since the Bank Holiday we've been reintroducing live chat for periods of the day, to help us understand the impact on call wait times, as well as our ability to handle the number of chats coming in too.

With this in mind we've taken the decision to operate chat over the following times next week:

Mon - Tue: 12:00 - 16:00
Wed - Fri: 11:00 - 17:00

Please note that we do also offer support via the Facebook, @plusnethelp on Twitter and our Community forums at community.plus.net

Kind Regards,

Plusnet Support
