    @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.

    @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.

    @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

    @M4tty_J @ThreeUK Hugely disappointing, isn't it? The whole reason I chose Three as a network is because I can use it anywhere. Now, we're headed to the bad old days of being disconnected abroad or paying through the nose. 😓

    @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

    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

    @Orthrus75 @ThreeUK If it’s in a specific area sounds like a certain mast is broken. Otherwise your phone settings might need updating

    @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

    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 📲

  • ReubenPeccable
    Andrew Miller (@ReubenPeccable) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @ThreeUK Hey Three! I accidentally subscribed to your mobile wifi instead of a real broadband provider. Is there any chance I'll get a decent signal or am I just going to have to deal with having no internet for hours at a time?

  • SamNicholles
    Sam Nicholles (@SamNicholles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    The @ThreeUK app for pre sale ticket sales is an absolute joke, making me create a new account when I’ve already had one, taking ages to load then closing down, class 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.

    So ****** off with the service from @ThreeUK (supposedly I can piggy back off @VodafoneUK masts?!) is there a problem calling landline numbers today? Mobile … fine, landlines ~ nothing … just silence?

    Danielle (@elektramonster) reported

    @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?

  • durgut_arda1
    ARDA BATIKAN DURGUT (@durgut_arda1) reported

    I use @ThreeUK in London, but the internet is practically non-existent... The signal is zero, the speed is terrible. This experience is truly unacceptable in 2026. 🙃 Am I the only one experiencing this problem? @ThreeUKSupport
