Since being with PlusNet my lady wife knows how to reset the router, I will be requesting the MAC code very soon. Never mind their Blurb just think of the Money and the word Throttle, which is what I'd like to do with Plusnet.

Router shows a connection speed of 6MB but download is rarely above 2MB. In the past and with Nildram download speed was over 5MB.

the worst mistake i ever made, 6 weeks of really poor service & call centre that's always putting you on hold. if you think it's too good a deal it probably is. think about the £65 you'll have to pay to get your mac code, expensive mistake which left me unable to afford any broadband service.

I have been with Plusnet over 10 years and can say they have got gradually worse as they got bigger.

There finance section hasn't got a clue. At present they are billing me for a service i do not have. They have charged me twice as much for the service amount I am listed to pay and they are holding onto my money.

They claim honest broadband from Yorkshire. As far as i am concerned there is nothing honest about this company.

Regretfully I am obliged to award PN one star for all aspects of what it laughingly calls service. They deserve negative ratings all the way through. Appalling company with arrogant unhelpful support staff who couldn't give a toss about customer service. Now moving on after months of trying to resolve a problem. Good bye and good riddance to the most vile company I have ever dealt with.

Old fashioned very poor speeds, often reduced to similar to the old dial up speed. Used to be much faster but has slowed down in recent years.
Thinking of switching to Virgin.

Was with Sky Broadband who advised I couldn't have more than 8Mb connection. Checked the BT Exchange who advised I could get upto 15Mb. Looked at Plusnet who advised that I could have 12Mb for £11.99 which has saved me £6 per month and almost doubled my connection speed. At best, I could only average 4-6Mb with Sky. I'd strongly recommend that people check-out Plusnet as they're realy good.
