  • HesslewoodPaul Paul Hesslewood (@HesslewoodPaul) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve had no data since getting back to the North East today is there an issue with 3/4G

  • leesmith_94 Lee Smith 🏳️‍🌈 (@leesmith_94) reported from Longbenton, England

    @ThreeUKSupport This isn’t good enough, I don’t pay to have no service so bad! I need to raise a complaint about this

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

    @ThreeUKSupport I got it connected to my Xbox but it couldn't update... It connected to my phone but its right slow. My Godfather is away atm. Can he cancel...i fear this will be a total waste of money for him with being a pensioner.

  • _MartinDean Martin Dean (@_MartinDean) reported from Blyth, England

    @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.

  • minkewales minkewales (@minkewales) reported from Dunston, England

    @TheAleTrail @ThreeUKSupport Had the same issues in London too 😩

  • fionaw24 Fiona Wilson (@fionaw24) reported from Blyth, England

    @ThreeUK strange network issues, as my phone is randomly sending old texts to people..causing some problems in my household 😡

  • tedstercal Tedstercal (@tedstercal) reported from Sunderland, England

    @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!

  • tedstercal Tedstercal (@tedstercal) reported from Sunderland, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Yes had Samsung support.Its funny that my work phones wifi connects but not my 3 phone which suggests it's the 3 phone wifi! I've been with 3 for years. I specifically went with 3 for this deal so I could access apps through Go Binge. Im stuck with a 2yr deal not fit for purpose!

  • Whitby_Born 🎶🌸ⓈⓉⒺⓋⒺ🌸🎶 (@Whitby_Born) reported from South Shields, England

    @Heidi_LFC9 @ThreeUK @EE I'm paying £57 month on 3 for my Samsung S10+ and it's a 2 year plan. I'll have enough to pay off the remaining 15 months in one go soon and I'll swap to EE. I've never had 3 add to my bills when on Unlimited.

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @SteveBlythe @ThreeUKSupport They couldn’t even be arsed replying! @ThreeUK must be the worst network for data speed, my days are numbered with them.....

  • JackLegind JL (@JackLegind) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport can’t update DD details online. Go onto app and says I can’t do it. Chat support is useless and takes 2 hours. Go into store and ask - told they can’t help but use have to use app, me: “that’s shite as well” “I know” cheers then 👍🏼

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Someone just passed me on the platform deep down underground on the Newcastle @My_Metro talking on their phone - I struggle to get a worthy @ThreeUK signal up on street level here let alone underground! #ImOnTheWrongNetwork 📲

  • _MartinDean Martin Dean (@_MartinDean) reported from Blyth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport That's good then I was about to pop into a three store as I thought it was a problem with my sim card. Any ETA ok when this will be fixed and I'm guessing we are getting refunds/extra time to our subscriptions

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

    Hello @ThreeUK There seems to be network issues in the NE25 0JF area, very poor signal strength on both 3G and 4G.

  • Funstie Jonathan Peat (@Funstie) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @ThreeUK 3G not working in Newcastle!

  • LucasWeatherby Lucas🦻🏻🖖🏻 (@LucasWeatherby) reported

    Poor form from @ThreeUK to complain to me over email that a 30 day rolling plan I've had for years has "expired" so now they are auto-increasing my monthly charges because they are not making enough from me, unless I ring them to agree to pay them more on a different contract!

  • the1itguy Alan Moss (@the1itguy) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I thought that you would be using dynamic addressing. It was just my isp asking as I don't think they know how to fix it.

  • steviehenning Stevie Henning (@steviehenning) reported

    @TeriLeighHall1 @NEEZU5 @ThreeUK Unbelievably I have had the exact same. I'm currently on live chat with the 12th person I've spoken to, been offered all sorts of credit but I only want the phone today. Got told of issues on Tues, Weds, Thurs & today so don't believe they'll resolve it at all.

  • HeathersSoapbox Heather’s Soapbox (@HeathersSoapbox) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport 2/ ... been "trying again" since 9:15 pm last night. I slept in snatches only, fed up with the whole thing. I get that it's the virus but you haven't got one member of staff manning the chat facility you kindly offered me. Please cancel if you're not prepared to fix my problem...

  • noah27714122 noah (@noah27714122) reported

    @ThreeUK come on three please the damm Internet connection Internet speed and download speed is terrible, extremely slow and constantly disconnects and can’t load stuff properly on mobile and personal hotspot devices

  • NickMarcenaro Nico Marcenaro (@NickMarcenaro) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Heya guys, the 4G has been absolutely horrible since a couple hours ago. I use your broadband for work. It would be nice if you hold your part of our contract. I pay you and you give me a stable service. Thanks a lot. W1H 4NN is the postcode

  • 2i0Sjv 2i0SJV (@2i0Sjv) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport hi I’m having issues resetting my password on the three app to check my balance and pay any bills. Can you help?

  • RachelC41733556 Rachel Cox (@RachelC41733556) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport why is my mum being charged for a phone that has been returned within the timescale? I am not calling your phone lines as no help and make you hold for over an hour. Is this on purpose so you don’t have to deal with complaints??

  • vibsiboy Vibs (@vibsiboy) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi, do you mean chat on three website? I am waiting for someone to respond on there since 20 minutes. However, like i mentioned, my earlier chats for hours have all been mis information and my issue not resolved. Since 19/01 my services are down due to fraud

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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
