-
Kimberley (@MissKimKH) reported@ThreeUKSupport why on Earth am I paying you so much money for unlimited data on 2 different devices when the internet is hardly ever useable?! Absolutely shocking service, I've been a customer for over 13 years and this is just diabolical lately!!
-
Nazarbek (@nazarbekto) reported@ThreeUK Hi @threeuk . Why I can’t play games and watch twitch on your internet? Why should I pay for that service? And why I can’t leave you? Worst internet in uk ((( you are very bad

-
Diversions (@diversionsgifts) reported@ThreeUKSupport hi got a new iPad from you on Saturday but no eSIM please help
-
Alexander Bragin (@SkaterMadnes) reported@ThreeUK @JonnyMontrealQC It's still broken a year later.
-
Danielle (@elektramonster) reported@ThreeUK As your signal is getting consistently worse, we were pleased to find that we could use Vodafone when 3uk isn't working (most of the time where we are currently) however it says Vodafone is a forbidden network! Can you explain this please?
-
Emma Andrews (@EmmaAndrews95) reported@ThreeUK @iD_Mobile_UK your coverage is down in the Hull area, my partner cannot get any phone signal today so cannot make calls or texts and has no Internet!
-
Hannah Penn (@Hannah_Penn) reported@threeuk Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. Mis-sold a 24m SIM-only contract, assured me twice it was cancelled (once after 2 hours on the phone), cases all closed. Now you’ve reinstated it AGAIN, and sent a bill. This is appalling. I will NOT be paying. Sort it out.
-
Kitty Coco (@BambieBambini) reported@ThreeUK Warning for 3 PAYG Users They cut off my service and kept my remaining credit, claiming no chargeable activity for 6 months, despite a recent call I have the logs on my phone to prove. This is the last time they will rob me. I’m switching to another provider.

elle🤍 franchaela (@franchaela_x) reported@jamesma34307397 @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I spoke to customer service and they kept trying to say it’s an issue with my phone and wouldn’t listen when I said other family members on three in the house are having the same problem.
-
The Honeydripper (@bazisbackagain) reported@ThreeUK the worst broadband and customer service ive ever experienced, cancelled my contract without me asking, then took £140 out of my account when I was told it wouldn’t go out, 5 times I’ve been in contact and they say it will be resolved in a matter of days, still waiting…
-
ES (@ewa_swital16945) reported@ThreeUK I have been scammed through 3 Pay and Three withdrew money from my account knowing about the fraud. I keep reporting the fraud to customer services and nothing has been done to address it. Three consciously enable fraud!
-
Graeme (@woodenscot) reported.@ThreeUKSupport is there any chance you could make your network work in the centre of Edinburgh. It is appallingly bad and has been for a very long time. I was hoping your Vodafone merger was fixing it but seems not.
-
Diversions (@diversionsgifts) reported@ThreeUKSupport hi got a new iPad from you on Saturday but no eSIM please help
-
Joe Tweeting. (@joeisstanding) reportedI had the same issue when speaking to @ThreeUK about the money they owed me after I traded in my old phone last year. Bring back UK customer service.

Natalie ❤️ (@boydie123) reported@ThreeUK I’m having issue with logging in to the App the MFA isn’t working and it’s actually not sending me the code. Your website isn’t helping neither is the chat

Ghostchant (@gh05tch4nt) reported@ThreeUKSupport We’ve had no internet at home all day. The network status on your site says you’re aware but working from home is impossible, currently. Do you have a timeframe? Stoke-on-Trent
-
Zion Lights (@ziontree) reportedCalling out @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport for the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Company keeps charging me for a cancelled service, but their staff can’t understand or resolve it. Filed a complaint via the website, which they marked as resolved - without resolving it.
-
ǝǝqspǝǝl 🇬🇧⚛️⚡️💡 (@leedsbee) reported@ziontree @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Quite possibly the worst customer service…in the world (although BT, EE & Plusnet are level *******)
