3 (Three) Outage in Teignmouth, Devon, England

Terrible customer service in @ThreeUK in Torquay branch. For months I’ve been overcharged on my bills due to an admin error, I brought my original contract into the store and not only did the manager refuse to help, but was incredibly rude, made jokes about me, and threatened me

@ThreeUKSupport Hi, don’t think the postcode is needed as the issue occurs everywhere. Phone is an iPhone 11.

@EwenRankin @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport O2 went down not long ago and Vodafone not long before that. Don’t think you’ll ever find a network where it’ll never happen. And to be fair I’ve not known this with Three before.

@ThreeUKSupport I’ve had loads of problems with the outage that started yesterday, I’d there any timeline for fixing the problem otherwise I will be going to leave #threedown #threesupport

@BBCNaga @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Absolutely shocking service as I need this for work as a freelance worker. Totally feel left in the dark at the lack of customer service. Many years of service with 3 and feel completely let down!!! Terrible!!!!

Looks like @ThreeUK network is down 🙈 going to a quiet day for me today. I wonder if WiFi calling still works 🤔

@Teshiburu @Three_Is_Broken @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @EE @HuaweiMobileUK Thank you. Yes, that’s the same as mine. I just emailed @HuaweiUK support to see if there is an update and if so how to get it and install.

@ThreeUKSupport Think it’s pretty clear if you read any of my tweets what the problem is. Not wasting any more of my time talking to you via chat or phone. All I want is an answer to my latest Resolver message or clarification that my case is still open. @Three_Is_Broken @Teshiburu

@Three_Is_Broken @Teshiburu @ThreeUKSupport Resolver case is still open it seems, but they keep saying they are closing email support. I’ve had no reply to my latest message to them for about a week now and then got that text I shared here. #noideawhatsgoingon

@ThreeUKSupport All you did was fob me and others off. No solutions offered until I tried to cancel early. I was lied to and then the lies were denied. My complaint stands! @Three_Is_Broken #dontmakemelaugh #youdontcare

@ThreeUKSupport Yes I’m in the midst of a complaint via Resolver. Only had one coherent reply, the rest are incomplete auto replies or confusing. Can’t log in to MyThree. It says my password is wrong but only option to change is via text to my now not working sim number.

@Maverick2405 @ThreeUK @LiamGreatrex Well I wouldn’t be surprised! I’m on @EE now and so much better! It’s a shame as I’ve been with three years and never had that many issues. Seemed to have dropped right off

@Three_Is_Broken @Teshiburu @Huawei_Europe @Huawei @ThreeUK I don’t believe it is the HUAWEI Router and switching to 3G was no better for me. I tried that ages ago (no thanks to @ThreeUKSupport ) who only suggested that ‘fix’ during my call to cancel.

@iansteele @TTSShumba @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @EE Hi Ian. Nothing has changed. No software update applied by @ThreeUK No improvement in data. I will be calling to cancel as soon as I get chance. I expect a long phone conversation.

@TTSShumba @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport @EE @iansteele I’ll let you all know in the next day or two. @ThreeUK deadline for fix is this week. In the meantime, @EE have been super helpful.

@Three_Is_Broken Just been on the phone again to @ThreeUKSupport for ages. They’re blaming Hauwei still. Hauwei 311s Mobile Broadband Router Software fix promised by 18th July. We shall see. #notholdingmybreath #lastchanceforThreeUK

@ThreeUKSupport OK thank you. It’s not just me having this bad experience is it, so I really hope you can get this fixed quickly. I’d prefer not to have to switch to #4GEE Mobile WiFi but #timewilltell #threehomefi #notcurrentlyfitforpurpose @iansteele @TTSShumba @ThreeUK @EE

@ThreeUKSupport The issue is with #hauwei 311s-220 4G #HomeFi unit supplied by @ThreeUK. Read previous tweets & you’ll see I was told by your phone tech support person that this is a known HUAWEI software issue. All I want to know is have you fixed it or am I just seeing speed fluctuations.

@ThreeUKSupport EX7 0PQ, EX7 0SR. I already gave this here, also reported via support form on three website and also to @ThreeUKSupport phone support. Never got a reply or update from website form as it only has the option to update via text! No good if I don’t have a @ThreeUK mobile is it.

@ThreeUKSupport I was not told of any issue prior to calling Three technical support yesterday to complain. As soon as I said I had a HUAWEI HomeFi router, he said “I know exactly what the problem is. All those routers have corrupted software, we are waiting for a fix but don’t know when”.

@ThreeUKSupport EX7 0PQ is nearest. 4G signal itself is strong, HomeFi WiFi download speed is the issue. I did not speak to Hauwei support, I spoke to Three support. It was Three support told me about the known software issue, but could not say when it would be fixed.

@ThreeUK @Hauwei HomeFi virtually unuseable for weeks. Tech Support say known software issue. No known date for fix. Not happy. Please sort this out as a matter of urgency. #threehomefi #rubbishinternet #pleasefixit

@ThreeUKSupport We’ve been waiting a while now 😕 Used to 3 being a leader with stuff like this 😉 EE and Vodafone both support it now in the UK 😬

NEVER START A CONTRACT WITH @ThreeUK! The handset I got 12 days ago had broken, the store won't accept it back and their #customerservices all contradicting themselves - one department is happy to help then the next won't help at all! AVOID AT ALL COSTS! #NoHelp #NeverAgain

@Payforit_Sucks @nuyoo_fitness I got a refund after 3 days after having contact with Sara the UK customer service manager. She was excellent. The call centre staff were abrupt and rude. @ThreeUK have apologised and given me £50 as an apology too. It should never have happened

@ThreeUKSupport It seems to be flitting between five bars of 3G, although it seems rather slow, and a single bar of 4G which is woefully slow. Ive restated both our phones, it’s made no difference.

I was already on a pretty good deal with @ThreeUK (£20 a month for unlimited minutes & texts and 100 GB data) but I've just upgraded on their "Black Friday" deal (ugh, sorry, hate the concept) to unlimited data too, still for just £20 a month! Not bad 😀 cheers @ThreeUKSupport

@virginmedia Yes it's showing an issue now. Oddly 4g on @ThreeUK is really slow too :-(

@ThreeUKSupport That's a circular answer. I know there's no resolution because I'm still having poor signal, mislead about 5g, and fobbed off. Lack of resolution is not satisfactory. Your lack of internal escalation and self accountability is noted, and I will continue to share my anger here!

@ThreeUKSupport Call 2 - Phoned to complain and cancel if still refused a refund. Instead of assistance or even an apology I had an idiot repeatedly shove a new 2 year contract down my throat. I had to say no over 20 times to stop the sales pitch. 5 minutes of saying no to his stupid contract.

@ThreeUKSupport Fraudulent charges on my account. Was told there was no way to take things further. Call 1 - Refused any refund or assistance getting a refund from the scam company. Just transferred me to the fraudulent company's phone number - funny how scam companies never answer their phone.

@IAmMrAngry @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Signals really bad in London,north east west and south. I’m a courier and every single day I have to hang up calls cause I lose connection and the people I’m talking to can’t hear me, I sound like a robot as well I’m told. I’ve been with them 10 years and it’s getting worse

@ThreeUKSupport Tried: restart phone; reset network settings; check/reset APN settings. It’s faster and more reliable roaming in Turkey! As a last resort a new SIM is being delivered.

@ThreeUK Your networks ******* shit.

@ThreeUKSupport I get these speeds consistently throughout the entire day, using an external cross-polarized antenna I bought to try and help the issue myself. Before I attached the antenna, speeds were even *worse*.

@ThreeUKSupport I have only tried using 3G instead of 4G when your customer support representatives over the phone have asked me to try doing so. Every time I have tried, speeds have only decreased.

@ThreeUKSupport That happens on both the 4G router *and* my phone, and I have tested it at different spots around the city centre with my phone, never able to get speeds higher than 10Mbps download. It's key to note that I also tested my phone 4G while in Edinburgh, and got 65Mbps download there

@ThreeUKSupport @M__Gatti @ThreeUKSupport Please stop advising victims of the ModoMobi scam to cancel their subscription. Unlike other #payforitscams this is NOT a subscription but a one off payment. It's taking advantage of a loophole in the rules. No need to send a STOP text. Please wake up!!
