    Anytime I’m in Newcastle City Centre on a match day I cannot get any signal even though it says I have 5G. @ThreeUK are one of the worst networks.

    @Nathan_McMillan @ThreeUK @intuMetrocentre The kid who went into me on the bike stopped and profusely apologised..the truck driver carried on... I was in such a state of shock I couldn't even lose my temper with the kid on the bike i basically got to my feet and hurried home. I've never slept properly or ate.

    @Ofcom I'm having a massive problem trying to help my elderly Godfather in his mid 70s cancel his contract with @ThreeUK it's making him ill, Im frightened he has a heart attack or collapses through stress. He has no internet speed on his WiFi router. Speaking to Indians is frustrating.

    @ThreeUK please hear me. I called your customer service coz I have been receiving 2-3 mbps. This is far what u promise 25-35. I never had this speed. They told me to use the chat options rather than call. Still no answer. I queue on your store for almost 2 hours to solve this but

    @ThreeUK can you sort out a signal in teesport. I know Mother Nature gave up around there, but a decent signal wouldn’t go a miss. Reminds me of watching porn on dial up in the 90’s.

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

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

    @edwardhorsford @ThreeUK Just checked my work phone (which is on a different network, can’t remember which) and it got it

    @ThreeUKSupport Hello SI that’s not what I’m asking. I’m asking if you are going to sell any variants of a phone you are already selling. I know it’s easy to hit the auto reply option but it’s not great customer service.

  • Stoddy75
    Andrew 🏳️‍🌈 (@Stoddy75) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Hello, any idea how long the works are going on for in NE25 0JF as I’ve had rubbish signal for days? I only have 3 mobile and broadband at home, so I’ve been severely affected by this. Websites don’t load properly and streaming is like being back on dialup.

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Jesus wept, I can't even cancel the contract as you are currently trying to figure out, again, why the first order didn't work. Hopeless

    @ThreeUKSupport Ok, but how will that fix the website reporting the same ?

    @ThreeUKSupport Don't think it's a Samsung issue, as I said my work phone conects ok which to me points toward the phone wifi accessibility through 3! Very disappointing reply!

  • debbieskywalker
    Debbie (@debbieskywalker) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Time to change my sim deal and I have to say @VodafoneUK you have had me as a valued customer for years but are nowhere near matching what @ThreeUK have offered! A tenner a month for unlimited everything! #HelloThree

  • 19bootsy68
    Bootsy (@19bootsy68) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport He doesn't want to talk to any Indian Call centre worker. All he wants is to cancel...understand the circumstances I think you should be letting him cancel and get a full refund before it escalates... How bad will yous look if John falls really ill and ends up in hospital.

    @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.

    Hi @ThreeUKSupport my dads lives in RG2 7hw postcode and can only use his mobile internet. Is there a problem with internet as it's taking ages to receive messages and can't call etc as it cuts out.

    I 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.

  • Legmo_2
    Legmo2 (@Legmo_2) reported

    @ThreeUK - Hello! Ever since Vodafone and Three have merged my signal at home went from 250-300mbps download to 3-4mbps. It only goes back up when I turn my phone to airplane mode on for a few minutes and then back off. Any help would be much appreciated!

    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.

    Is there any issues with your network? @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport as 4G hasn't been working properly since yesterday

    @ThreeUK I've been trying to call to top up my phone but the 444 number service has been down due to you upgrading your system for two days now. When will this upgrade be complete please?

  • DjGiggsy
    Giggsy (@DjGiggsy) reported

    Hey @threeuk, since you’ve teamed up with @Vodafone I thought my service would improve. If anything I get worse signal in places than I did before! What’s going on? Been a customer of yours since 2006, seriously looking at other options right now.

    Hi @ThreeUK I am a long term generally satisfied customer. I need a number to ring so that I can speak to a real human being about the +40% increase in my monthly bill. I have done the AI merry go round, got texted a4 figure code and back unto the going nowhere roundabout. 🙁
