@Philthirkell 

Can't help with your specific problem but have you registered with PN as a vunerable person?

 

If not, do so by logging into your Member's page and you should find a link under My Account (at least I think that's where it is).

@Philthirkell Just tried 0330 123 9123 and it works as expected. Are you calling from a mobile or landline?

@Philthirkell 

I just tested 0800 432 0200 and it was answered quickly.  I listened to the instructions but didn't actually press option2 which apparently is the one you need for billing queries.

I`m not sure if the Customer Options number 0800 013 2632 is of use even though this is the number I used to recontract with Plusnet recently and got through fairly quickly, roughly less than a minute and then chose the `option` I wanted from the recorded message. Spoke to a really helpful chap too!

I`ve noticed members posting the 03 number recently and wondered if Plusnet are only using their 0800 free call number for retentions? 

@RobPN - The number you gave is probably the better option though. Hope you managed to get through @Philthirkell
