-
Tedstercal (@tedstercal) reported from Sunderland, England@ThreeUKSupport Yes had Samsung support.Its funny that my work phones wifi connects but not my 3 phone which suggests it's the 3 phone wifi! I've been with 3 for years. I specifically went with 3 for this deal so I could access apps through Go Binge. Im stuck with a 2yr deal not fit for purpose!
-
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.
-
Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@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.....
-
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.

'Camerado' Cal Desmond-Pearson (The Social Hermit) (@SocialHermitCal) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, EnglandHello @ThreeUK, as a long time customer, I sincerely hope that you guys are not planning to advertise on GB News at any point. #DontFundGBNews

Julie 'Jules' Walker (@Colins_kitten) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@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

Martin Dean (@_MartinDean) reported from Blyth, England@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.

🎶🌸ⓈⓉⒺⓋⒺ🌸🎶 (@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.

Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@ThreeUKSupport hi, need to speak to someone re mobile WiFi that’s not working. Tried the number on website, just cuts off
-
Tedstercal (@tedstercal) reported from Sunderland, England@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!
-
Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@ThreeUKSupport Damn. Come on Scotty, we’ve waited long enough now, tell them to hurry up lol
-
Paul Banks 🎶🇪🇺 (@paulbanks60) reported from South Shields, England@ThreeUK I wish to cancel my home broadband with immediate effect. #threeuk
-
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.....
-
Sam Nicholles (@SamNicholles) reported from Longbenton, EnglandStill so annoyed at how poor the @ThreeUK app was this morning, absolute shambles trying to get tickets for Peter Kay, hoping to be successful Saturday morning ..

stoddy_running 🏳️🌈🌱 (@Stoddy_running) reported from Seaton Delaval, England@ThreeUKSupport hi. Any idea when you will finish the works on the masts affecting NE25 0JF as my broadband is unusable due to the reduced service?
-
Border Riever 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@geordie_driver) reported from Seaton Delaval, England@ThreeUK can you sort out a signal in teesport. I know Mother Nature gave up around there, but a decent signal wouldn’t go a miss. Reminds me of watching porn on dial up in the 90’s.
-
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
-
Daniel Allis 🇬🇧 (@danieljohnallis) reported from Gateshead, England@_macca_pacca @SpeedtestAwards @ThreeUK It’s everywhere in town, I’ve been all over the north east when I was on 3 and the signal was crap and so were the speeds
-
Rachel Eleanore Wright (@ShxdowHerondale) reported from Seaton Delaval, England@ThreeUK can you fix this internet connection please in Whitley Bay area, the connection is so bad I cant even use my 4G data 🤯🤬

katie t 🏴 (@kattyork) reportedWhy is @ThreeUK so **** says I can get 4G at work I sometimes have nothing or 1 bar like in York city centre
-
Mark 💙🤍 🇪🇺 🌈 (@MarkJohnpotter) reportedMany thanks to the hopeless @ThreeUKSupport for waking me up despite clear instructions not to call me before 1pm clearly they didn’t listen to a word I said. No idea of customer service.
-
Best Dressed PM Ever! (@rishirichsunak) reported@ThreeUK what is going on with your 5G? I had no signal or very unstable for the past 4 days!
-
David Richards (@gadgetbluetab) reported from Anstey, England@ThreeUKSupport David Richards 68 Le53dj. ...2150. Parcel gone missing at Dpd. No idea where it is. Dpd told me to contact yourselves to resolve this issue
-
Graeme (@woodenscot) reported.@ThreeUKSupport is there any chance you could make your network work in the centre of Edinburgh. It is appallingly bad and has been for a very long time. I was hoping your Vodafone merger was fixing it but seems not.
-
AC Photography (@adrian83caveill) reported@ThreeUK disgusting service from you, cancelled my order because I missed 1 call you made to me for "security " no notification from you and now I have to wait 3 months to order again despite having all the confirmation from you and payment taken! Absolutely awful service!
-
Philip Carr (@PHILIPCARRUK) reported@ThreeUK why have you billed me for 5–6 months of line rental after I cancelled my SIM and moved my number to Vodafone? Now I “owe” £190+ due to your error. Take responsibility and fix this.
-
ARDA BATIKAN DURGUT (@durgut_arda1) reportedI 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
-
Matt Hayes 🇮🇪 (@matthayesthfc) reported@panks_79 @ThreeUKSupport My current phone is broken, but you've saved me. There was a separate section of the Three website for pay-as-you-go 🙈 Which is weird, because I've had to go through an entire different page to buy the same phone I was trying to buy anyway haha Thanks Craig!
-
Kimberley (@MissKimKH) reported@ThreeUKSupport why on Earth am I paying you so much money for unlimited data on 2 different devices when the internet is hardly ever useable?! Absolutely shocking service, I've been a customer for over 13 years and this is just diabolical lately!!
