  • BillieJoeMcAll1 Billie Joe McAllister (@BillieJoeMcAll1) reported

  • _Rajesh_9999 Rajesh Gundapaneni (@_Rajesh_9999) reported

    @ThreeUK Annual story. Long-term 3 network contract phone and insurance. My wife lost her phone. Square Trade has not responded to our claim request since December 6. Customer service answers as we work on your claim. Forty-five days. Is customer service working?

  • melissaxoo Melissa Emma (@melissaxoo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport for weeks now you’ve said you’ve been working on a problem yet we still can’t get 4/5G or our broadband to work!! This is getting ridiculous 🤬

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Is that confirmation that there IS an issue Pete, or are Three still using guesswork?

  • LeeDonaghy Lee Donaghy (@LeeDonaghy) reported

    Absolutely disgusting customer services from @ThreeUK this past week. Son’s pay as you go sim has been blocked 3 times. Each time I’ve contacted & been promised reconnection within 24 hrs. Each time it’s taken longer. Unblock team doesn’t work weekends.

  • rabbi_pawl pawl (@rabbi_pawl) reported

    Three UK network are to the mobile phone industry what Evri are to the delivery / courier industry. That is to say…totally rubbish #threeuk @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK

  • JazmynAnne1 Jazmyn Quartley (@JazmynAnne1) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is the network down or something? Can’t receive calls and if I make them the line is bad. Also my 4G isn’t working? #help

  • tuco_tuco WE ARE TUCO (@tuco_tuco) reported

    @Beck1sm @ThreeUK You'll get a bot reply that won't help

  • Sionilo John Warren 🇺🇦 (@Sionilo) reported

    @timatkin @ThreeUK @VodafoneUK Many companies offer free EU usage of your UK allowance, BUT it often needs to be and existing contract ie. before a certain date. We had EE and O2 when we went to Lanzarote last month no problem.

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Oh, and I never received the promised transcript of my chat conversation so I now don’t have the (little) information I was actually given.

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Still no resolution. It cannot be our devices as we have the same issue on apple and android.

  • _Rajesh_9999 Rajesh Gundapaneni (@_Rajesh_9999) reported

    @ThreeUK @AllstatePP @SquareTradeSave Long-term 3 network contract phone and insurance. My wife lost her phone. Square Trade has not responded to our claim request since December 6. Customer service answers as we work on your claim. Forty-five days. Is customer service working?

  • humanbasic Humanbasic (@humanbasic) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Disappointed to find out that the outage is planned maintenance, with no notice and no service for a week (who knows? Three's not telling) presumably all those affected will still have to pay? ANY information would be helpful.

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    Still no @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport signal in CR0 and no information from #Three. What’s going on??!!

  • plastichair24 Daniel Manley (@plastichair24) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport is there no service in Croydon? Been a day without service using ID mobile

  • Zpriestley89 Zoe (@Zpriestley89) reported

    @CarlosLongus @SimonMiller316 @ThreeUKSupport EE is fantastic. Their customer service is second to none. They are more expensive, but they put it back into the business. I was always happy to pay more just for the customer service .

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Both. Mobile signal keeps dropping out and NO connection at or near home. Barely getting 8mbps on the home broadband. Never thought I’d say this but thank goodness for @SkyUK

  • dannyknight85 danny knight (@dannyknight85) reported

    @ThreeUK This can't be true I'm with @ThreeUK and it's the worst signal I've ever had it's all over the country were I work it's terrible I've tried speaking to customer services and they are equally as bad cannot wait for end of my contract

  • Beck1sm My name isn’t Becky (@Beck1sm) reported

    Hi @ThreeUK can someone help me cancel a contract please as every time I phone they are being unhelpful.

  • LeeDonaghy Lee Donaghy (@LeeDonaghy) reported

    I’ve registered a complaint about the inadequacy of @ThreeUK processes. When I asked what would happen to this complaint I was told: nothing. I wouldn’t head back from them or get any feedback. Complaint essentially gets filed & ignored. Completely unacceptable.

  • OggleboxMatilda Ogglebox (@OggleboxMatilda) reported

    Disgusting customer service from @ThreeUK. I took out a broadband contract with them, cancelled it within 3 days due to a rubbish connection and returned the pack despite them making it VERY difficult. My data has now been shared to debt collection agencies without reason. Beware

  • RetroWarwick Matt Phillips (@RetroWarwick) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Ongoing poor signal today despite you saying work finishing yesterday . I'll call to log a ticket for a refunded.

  • Brian_Robinson4 Brian ☺ (@Brian_Robinson4) reported

    Notification of delivery slot, it's to late to arrange due to my shifts. After two attempts, it's sent by to @threeuk. Have to rearrange, after 2 weeks paying I finally get it. Go to set it up, no sim included, so can't use it, and their customer service which is advertised as

  • stuartg917 Stuart Gallagher (@stuartg917) reported

    @dsb_malloy @ThreeUK Phantom signal. Turn it off and on again.

  • iWantNotToWant Waffle (@iWantNotToWant) reported

    @ThreeUK do your PAYG plans support iPhone visual voicemail?

  • drew_wwwwd ᕲᖇᘿᘺ 🍁🍂🍃 (@drew_wwwwd) reported

    @lyes_11 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I spent 90 mins on the #three chat yesterday with the most ineffectual engineer whose main concern was what rating I was going to give them (#spoileralert it was 0). Web team will tell you there’s no issues, engineers “think” there is & can give no ETA. Meanwhile still no service

  • LeeDonaghy Lee Donaghy (@LeeDonaghy) reported

    As a result several days this week he’s not had network service to contact me or his mum in an emergency if needed on way to & from school. @ThreeUK haven’t contacted me when they needed extra info or when reconnect was delayed, I’ve had to call them.

  • Brian_Robinson4 Brian ☺ (@Brian_Robinson4) reported

    To add to the fun, I installed the app to try see if I could sort it, but of course the app doesn't let you register, have to do that on website first. What's the point? The store can't help with online, the online can't help with certain things etc etc @threeuk

  • BillieJoeMcAll1 Billie Joe McAllister (@BillieJoeMcAll1) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I have a number to report this on, but apparently all your systems are down so they can't do anything!
