    @ThatSillyGinge @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport My app is down too.

  • marechal12 ℓιғε ιs gσσ∂💯 (@marechal12) reported

    @ThreeUK Sort out your network, my Internet speed has been under 10mbps for over 2 weeks now, nothing works

  • Joel_Bevan Joel Bevan (@Joel_Bevan) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi there. I have now tried the SIM in another handset and can confirm that the issues are still there

  • dom_mackie Dominic Mackie (@dom_mackie) reported

    @ThreeUK how about providing any boosted signal at glastonbury. Or any at all, that would be great. #Glastonbury2022

  • Giorgia31234223 Giorgia (@Giorgia31234223) reported

    @ThreeUK You should not advertise, your network is rubbish and your customer service is even worse!I had to call two times and chat for 2 hours to report a network issue in the area,to hear that if I want to leave few months before my contract ends I should pay. This is ridiculous!

  • IEliTez_HD IEliTez HD (@IEliTez_HD) reported

    @ThreeUK your signal these days, is absolutely horrendous

  • graham_live Graham (@graham_live) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport @DMJudge65 I’m having the same problem. Can’t get in to the app or the website.

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Murton, England

    @ThreeUK Aren't you the network that promised not to ditch EU roaming? Yet your subsidiary @SMARTYMobileUK still offer inclusive EU roaming. Genuinely couldn't wait to ditch three. Absolute money grab!

  • t25bear Bat Pilot 💙 (@t25bear) reported

    @ThatSillyGinge @ThreeUK Luckily my work phone has full roaming and we are allowed to use it while not working… I also have a Vodafone data SIM for GA which charges £2 per day to use contract data while roaming which I think is fair (ish)

  • Laurawa34473525 Laura walton (@Laurawa34473525) reported

    @ThreeUK I am calling to leave three but I can't get through to anyone because you are 'having technical issues' and then just hang up on me. This has happened 4 times today. How can I speak to an advisor?

  • missmayawolff Maya Wolff (@missmayawolff) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Data is not working, phone lines were too long I gave up

  • jazzytbag Jarrod Taylor (@jazzytbag) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport hey why does your network not work in the USA despite advertising you work in the USA?

  • Sharpharp123 Sharpharp (@Sharpharp123) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Your website isn;t allowing login - Please wait... message and goes no further

  • kmariejones97 Kate 🌻 (@kmariejones97) reported

    @threeuksupport I need help with my last bill but no longer have access to the app as I’ve changed providers. Can you help?

  • TommyTwit Thomas Fowler (@TommyTwit) reported

    @ThreeUK why such poor coverage @glastonbury ? Your competitors are providing great data speeds. I cannot use Three data at all. Can you increase capacity?

  • showponymahoney Lee Mahoney (@showponymahoney) reported

    @ThatSillyGinge @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Yea terrible website and service, I lost my roaming last month and just counting down to the end of my contract so I can jump to O2

  • DarrenSheaLFC Darren Shea (@DarrenSheaLFC) reported

    @ThreeUK all I want to do is leave your network I’ve not slept for two days with the fury of trying to get answers !

  • HominiLupus3 Horacio Rodríguez LaGrieta 🖐️ (@HominiLupus3) reported

    @ThreeUK Time to say goodbye. I stayed with you for 3 years despite your awful service and terrible connection, only because you had Go Roam Around the World. Somehow, you managed to ruin that too by trying to force us into a new contract and scrap roaming. Not happening.

    Tbf I should count myself lucky I’ve had enough signal to tweet this @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport

  • NotoriousBMcG Brian McGuinness (@NotoriousBMcG) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport when will the ongoing issues in the BT29 area be resolved? I rely on a 4g router for broadband and it's been mostly unusable for over a week

  • Laurawa34473525 Laura walton (@Laurawa34473525) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport So why when I call 333, i don't get through to anyone? How do I log a complaint? Thanks

  • garymbo G (@garymbo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport my 5G has been intermittent since yesterday. Typed my postcode on the status checker and it says 'We’re fixing an issue with our network in this area'. But i feel like that's just a default message cos it says that no matter what postcode you type.

  • grainneisbusy Gráinne (@grainneisbusy) reported

    @SouthernFairy16 @ThatSillyGinge @ThreeUK The roaming was the main draw of Three, so it was kind of an easy choice to just go when they forced me off my old contract. Had some good deals, but lots of coverage issues etc over the years and customer service was brutal over the phone.

  • adamjamesh Adam James Hill (@adamjamesh) reported

    The irony of connecting my phone to the home Wi-fi provided by @ThreeUK to call @EE about my “unbreakable network”. #FirstWorldProblems
