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

    @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

  • 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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport This is how much your uncaring and unhelpful company is affecting him...he is so worried its stressed him out so much his brother wants him to visit his doctor. Its absolutely disgusting that a pensioner who served for our country can be treated so bad. #Shameless #threenetwork

  • gloriasibz GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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!

  • japredchiu 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

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

    @MartinSLewis I'm concerned for the welfare of my elderly Godfather. He signed a 18 month contract with @ThreeUK 5th December.. he has no speed at all from his plug in 4g router...we tried getting help. The manager from the 3 shop he advised to phone and cancel. 1/2

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

    @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.

  • DezyByers33 Dezy Ward (@DezyByers33) reported from Washington, England

    @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

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

    What a bunch of un professionals @ThreeUK #threeuk #threenextwork @ThreeUKSupport are...they tell us to fill an online complaint form out for it to say not a valid postcode. John my Godfather also doesn't have an email address...So we are no further forward. #HarryandMeghan #iran

  • 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.

  • gloriasibz GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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.

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

    @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.

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

    @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.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport Your Indian call centres makes it very hard to sort anything out when you get passed to technical for technical to say they are putting you through to technical because this technical can't give the go ahead to cancel the contract. You're a sinister comedy act #cybermuggers.

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

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Yous are an absolute disgrace of a company. Totally uncaring. I have my elderly Godfather here nearly in tears...i hope yous feel ashamed...ive had to sit him down as I'm worried he has a funny turn. I need a UK number now I am worried. #threenetwork

  • 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.

  • gloriasibz GLORY. (@gloriasibz) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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

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

    @ThreeUKSupport @intuMetrocentre I'm not joking...yous will be the death of my Godfather or he will end up in hospital then it turns serious...that's when yous end up in trouble and get the bad press yous deserve. Under the circumstances I'm sure someone high up with Three can have his contract ended in a shop.

  • FoxResurrected Sarcastix The Gall (@FoxResurrected) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Ok...so I’ve just sat waiting for your chat operative to appear for half an hour and it eventually cut me off. I literally don’t have all day to sit and wait for Three. I have work to do. I want to cancel my order, I’ve had bad vibes since Tuesday and this is the last straw tbh.

  • andrewb1967 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧Britain is free🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 #MBGA (@andrewb1967) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It is not pending,but have contacted your customer services and topped up over the phone.However it has left my parents without an active mobile, when they have hospital appointments. Very disappointed and considering switching to other provider. Cannot have this situation again

  • projectzip Joe Brown (@projectzip) reported

    @paulrdon @ThreeUKSupport Thankfully they have sorted the issue.

  • Square_Strawb Square-Strawberry (@Square_Strawb) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport What I’d really like is someone to contact me directly about this issue for me Jade.

  • crumbscorkscrew Lou | Crumbs & Corkscrews (@crumbscorkscrew) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Hi @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I am still unable to access my account. The login page is not working and when I try to reset my password it says they do not match, even though I do. Our broadband service is terrible and I can't find a way to contact you without being logged in.

  • mccsvaleter MCCS - Car Valeting (@mccsvaleter) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport why is my signal so poor ? DY13 8AG

  • ThreeUKSupport ThreeUKSupport (@ThreeUKSupport) reported

    @thefrenchnerd If the transaction is still pending this could be what's causing the issue, the transaction will then be sent back into your account within the next few days. The best we can advise is to chat with our PAYG team through the ThreeUK app -Jenn

  • sapphiresteel Christy (@sapphiresteel) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport My broadband Internet is unbelievably slow! Mostly less than 1mbps. I am having to use my phone's hotspot, which works much better! Please help! RG42 1SA. Huawei B535 232

  • lindiejoy18 Linda Watkins (@lindiejoy18) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Can you tell me when this problem will be sorted, please?
