Last weekend my phone line lost connection and broadband limped along at 2Mbps once it reconnected after hours of failed tries. After reporting the fault via text I lost connection for 36 hours.
Engineer came on Wednesday and fixed phone line and seemingly broadband via the cabinet outside.
Speed looked to be about 1Mbps, so I waited a few hours before restarting router. Appears I lost connectiion twice next day dropping me to 0.5Mbps.
Will me speed return to normal soon by itself, or does something need doing to removed throttle?
Before the fault I got between 9-12Mbps.
My currents stats
DSL uptime:1 Day 4 Hrs 5 Mins
Data rate:1.212 Mbps / 575 Kbps
Maximum data rate:1.212 Mbps / 10.016 Mbps
Noise margin:6.3 / 31.6
Line attenuation:14.3 / 28.0
Signal attenuation:14.6 / 27.9
VPI/VCI:0/38
Modulation:G.992.5(ADSL2+)
Latency type:Interleaved
Upstream error control:Off
Downstream error control:Off
Fixed! Go to the fix.

@AJ_777 Whatever the OR engineer did to your connection, it may have fixed the phone service, but you still have a major issue with the broadband side of the service, If nothing else, the downstream SNR of 31.6 will be the major obstacle. I suggest you raise a BROADBAND fault via: https://www.plus.net/help/report-a-problem/ and request another OR visit. Note this will not be actioned before Monday of next week.
