    @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 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 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.

    JAN STEWART (@fabiliciousx) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @ThreeUK After being on phone for over an hour, the support kindly waived some charges, a phone call later saying they cannot do this ..what they agreeded because of a waive back in 2017 for £8....what a joke!!!

    @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.

    @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!

  • 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

    @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.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

    @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 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

    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

    @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.

    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

    @ThreeUK As your signal is getting consistently worse, we were pleased to find that we could use Vodafone when 3uk isn't working (most of the time where we are currently) however it says Vodafone is a forbidden network! Can you explain this please?

    So @ThreeUK tell me do you usually ignore people's request to cancel the Paramount Plus add on. I cancelled when I got an email about paying for it.....guess what, you've charged me for it. Also cancelled it again today, no confirmation email or text. Poor form
