    @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 If we do.. I don't expect whoever we speak to to go and and on...i want John to have the right to cancel as soon as he requests to cancel. I phone him twice a day to make sure he is ok...he is the closest thing to me after my mother, my children and my sister.

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

    @ThreeUK thank you...you make it impossible to cancel. You are a disgrace...after phoning India for my elderly Godfather to cancel the 18 month plug in 4g wifi that could hit any speeds we were past from pillow to post by India call centre workers. I had to hang up #threenetwork

  • _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

  • 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.....

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

    @ThreeUK 3G not working in Newcastle!

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

    @ThreeUKSupport He wants to cancel... What he has been saying for over a week now...there is no option now.

  • 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 😡

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 📲

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

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport I've just phoned India again to try to cancel my Godfathers contract...i ended the call as they are once again passing me from pillow to post...its once again stressing my elderly Godfather out...its making him ill...i can find that UK link you give me.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @ThreeUKSupport That's what I've had to do...i don't want no nonsense once I take over or I will hang up and take the @Ofcom route. I think to make it even easier is that there is an attachment on John's file that there is only one thing we need and that is cancellation of the contract.

  • enots27 Michael Stone (@enots27) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Its every where I go I will have 4g or 5g signal but data only works from time to time. The next step for me will be trading standards as thee are not supplying the service that I am paying for

  • RenaudGuerin Renaud Guérin (@RenaudGuerin) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Unusable speeds on 5G for a few hours now, in central London (can share postcode in DM). I rely on it for work. Your network status page shows no issues. Can you help please ?

  • abelwest_ 🇨🇩🇦🇴 (@abelwest_) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Yeah my other apps working as normal but Snapchat is the only app that's not working. I reset my phone, deleted the app, etc and still not working but yh I'll reach to snap directly

  • CDavieSTEM Chantel (@CDavieSTEM) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Just went onto a £14 contract with a new 4G router before the weekend. Three support never mentioned anything about charging £87.

  • Ruairidh31 Ru (@Ruairidh31) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I had it confirmed to me more than once that yes, I was fully cancelled. So please stop this harassment. how can you charge me and threaten me with cancellation fees when i dont have a contract with you anymore?! I will never ever use three again.

  • Ruairidh31 Ru (@Ruairidh31) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport thats the only email i have r any form of document. As you can see it says my contract ended on the 5/11/21. AS you can also see I wasn't even using the service. It took so many phone calls to actually say yes im cancelling. plus why am i now being told its 13 pounds not 17?

  • That_Musician AngstyJew🎶 (@That_Musician) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Is there a support number to call to talk about issues and resolving them? I’m in between two meetings and I don’t necessarily have the time to get into a shop.

  • ben_Jobson ben Jobson (@ben_Jobson) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport thanks ill stick with my current 3g setup and current network then

  • CDavieSTEM Chantel (@CDavieSTEM) reported

    Hello @ThreeUK Recently upgraded home broadband and my first month payment is £87.13 on a £14 contract, which was never mentioned when I called to discuss an upgrade. Your online help isn't working either. Why am I being charged >£87 for 1 month broadband?

  • steve228uk Stephen Radford (@steve228uk) reported

    @mcelhearn @ThreeUKSupport It looks like Apple might have actually banned a block of addresses from Three 😬 Got a new IP after cycling my router and still the same problem.
