    @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.

    @ThreeUK the complaint was made...and surprise surprise no reply. Your Indian call centre workers were not at all helpful passing us from pillow to post.. they actually made things worse @ThreeUKSupport links they sent never worked. It's been a total shambolic joke. #threeuk

    @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.

    @Nathan_McMillan @ThreeUK @intuMetrocentre Yep... I feel a bit bad as I said to John that the plug in WiFi router from 3 might be the easiest thing he'd need...then for he to go through all that stress, having to see his doctor makes me feel guilty especially when he was trying to cheer me up when I was nearly killed.

    @ThreeUK your app is busted and has been for weeks now! Forgotten password and it says it has sent an email or text and I never get one. Have tried 6 or 7 times now. Your live chat doesn't work on the app either. Not impressed!! May leave for a company that can make a working ap

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK Terrible service when trying to upgrade phone. Placed order on 16th January for delivery 26th January. Still no phone, waited for issue to be resolved before trying again, but still can't be done.....

    @ThreeUK can you fix this internet connection please in Whitley Bay area, the connection is so bad I cant even use my 4G data 🤯🤬

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

    @ThreeUKSupport No...and it looks an impossible task to get his refund he is rightly owed. The Indian advised my Godfather he should claim the 2 month payments for the service he never had back from his bank...or credit someone else's 3 account for John to get the fefund from them.

    @rutty_uk @ThreeUK Cheers, some decent plans/prices there. Was always a bit concerned about them not having a help number but I think most networks do it all on social media anyway.

    @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 @ThreeUKSupport I’m actually so annoyed and the service I’ve received in the past month or has been absolutely atrocious. If anyone is thinking of joining 3 network please don’t they’re a joke who rip off their customers and the service is a joke!

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK I understand the circumstances that are going on right now, it’s already difficult not being able to speak to an advisor over the phone. You can’t be dismissing a customer when they’ve contacted for help.

    japred chiu (@japredchiu) reported from South Shields, England

    @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

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUKSupport That’s not working, says please try later. These issues having been going on all week, how much longer are they going on for? My internet access is barely useable.

    @ThreeUK service is appalling like.... i ring you up told to i have to go 20 mile to the nearest shop. Get there and your systems are down. Waste of journey and time

    2nd day of limited internet service in NE262JF area @ThreeUKSupport any updates on this? Soons I move into ne25 area it’s back to its usual self but that’s 10 min drive away.

    @ThreeUKSupport is the app and my3 service down? I am unable to access either.

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK honestly I’m tired of your customer advisors transferring me to complaints when I have not suggested that I want to speak to complaints team. The queue wait is absolutely ridiculous to begin with. They should be able to try and resolve the solution first

    @ThreeUK how come Hendon London only ever has 2 bars of 4g signal. It’s like having no service at all. Nothing loads, nothing works and phone calls sound horrible.

  • bethsdad2
    dave howard (@bethsdad2) reported

    @ThreeUK I’ve been on three for years , you can’t match the offers im seeing online from other companies doing contracts using the 3 network , my question is if I get a phone off fonehouse for instance how do I go about keeping my number as I’d be moving from 3 to 3 ???

    @ThreeUK - your service sucks! Literally doesn’t her any signal at home nor outside!

    @ThreeUK why is your internet so bad constant interruptions where it can barely load a YouTube video. At times it’s amazing but there are way too many times where it’s just utter rubbish.

    MattWilson (@MattyAWilson) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport £459 to cancel my contract!? I'm immigrating and won't have any need for a Three contract. I've been a loyal customer for years and your agent said, "We can't budge on that figure". Unacceptable customer service. (1)

    @ThreeUKSupport can I get a real update on what is going on with RG31 area please. No service for 2 weeks and the website just gives me a standard “we’re fixing an issue with our network in the area”. Contract expires at the end of October and may need to change supplier.

    @ThreeUKSupport I have sent several emails regarding the issue but your team did not respond only for them to refer the case to debt recovery agent

    GRT (@jurrjurrtbull) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve tried ringing on my new EE Sim to cancel but I think the wrong address is on record - it says it’s correct online but via the phone it is not. So I can’t cancel without the SIM due to the security code sent to it.

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s been like this for four weeks now. Tried my sim in a different phone, same problem
