  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @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.

  • davidmellstrom David Mellstrom (@davidmellstrom) reported from Morpeth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Pretty much anywhere indoors! I live in a ground floor flat at NE26 2RG and I have to have my phone on a windowsill to get even 1 bar of signal.

  • basherdrummer Barry B. (@basherdrummer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport do you support the cellular Apple Watch yet? If not will you be?

  • Stoddy_running 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?

  • andyb7274 Andy Brown (@andyb7274) reported from Bedlington, England

    @ThreeUKSupport Ok, but how will that fix the website reporting the same ?

  • SocialHermitCal 'Camerado' Cal Desmond-Pearson (The Social Hermit) (@SocialHermitCal) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Hello @ThreeUK, as a long time customer, I sincerely hope that you guys are not planning to advertise on GB News at any point. #DontFundGBNews

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUK @ThreeUKSupport Jesus wept, I can't even cancel the contract as you are currently trying to figure out, again, why the first order didn't work. Hopeless

  • andrewkane80 Andy Kane (@andrewkane80) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport @ThreeUK just to let you guys know. Been told I still can't cancel my contract as you have to raise an issue again about first order (for 3rd time) which will take another 48hrs. Appalling service. Can't wait to cancel my second account

  • danieljohnallis 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

  • ShxdowHerondale 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 🤯🤬

  • Stoddy75 Andrew 🏳️‍🌈 (@Stoddy75) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @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.

  • Stoddy75 Andrew 🏳️‍🌈 (@Stoddy75) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @ThreeUKSupport is the app and my3 service down? I am unable to access either.

  • andrewkane80 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.....

  • tubblog Richard Tubb (@tubblog) reported from Longbenton, England

    @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. 😓

  • Colins_kitten 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

  • 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.

  • geordie_driver 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.

  • CannyDeku CannyDeku (@CannyDeku) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    2nd day of limited internet service in NE262JF area @ThreeUKSupport any updates on this? Soons I move into ne25 area it’s back to its usual self but that’s 10 min drive away.

  • rachel_scott13 Rachel (@rachel_scott13) reported

    @ThreeUK just found out some shocking customer service you provided me at the beging of my contract from your Stirling branch and appalling custom service from your Maidenhead branch.

  • JillWooWoo Jill Woo Woo (@JillWooWoo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport They didn't see the issue and kept saying the person would get into trouble. I'm not in the mood for being guilted into paying more than I should have but they need to make sure the staff understand the contracts available and call people back when they promise...

  • xLRxR4G3 Adelaide Roylance (@xLRxR4G3) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport Thanks for your reply Maxine, my issue was when I needed to call customer service to do a simple credit check as I have signed up for a mobile Wi-Fi unit. and had already picked my plan online and just needed to do that one last step I was sent to the sales department who kept

  • gemma_threlfall Gemma 🌙 (@gemma_threlfall) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I can't get SMS because I don't have a SIM, which I can't get without memorable info... etc. There ought to be a system in place for this. My phone will have been out of service for over 2 weeks by the time I can get into a 3 store to sort it out. What exactly am I paying for?

  • katHM1979 KatHM (@katHM1979) reported

    @ThreeUK I haven’t had a signal for 4 days. I can’t Ring you to report it. How do I get in touch?

  • gemma_threlfall Gemma 🌙 (@gemma_threlfall) reported

    I dunno who regulates @ThreeUK but why do I need an eidetic memory and a degree in code breaking to get a ******* replacement SIM card, absolute ****

  • asyouare KittyKatApocalypse (@asyouare) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I’m having issues with a game. Their support says to check to make sure certain ports are open but port forwarding is not an option when I log in to the router on the browser.

  • JillWooWoo Jill Woo Woo (@JillWooWoo) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport They tried to make me feel bad that the person would get into trouble, sell me a longer contract and the hung up on me without calling back. Really nice customer service so now I'm sat worrying someone's losing their job and I have been charged too much and wasted most of the day

  • rachel_scott13 Rachel (@rachel_scott13) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport The branch manger for Maidenhead is slightly rude and not helpful in the slightest. 😑

  • lecaitlind 𝐜𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐧 (@lecaitlind) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport This still hasn't gone through :( whenever I try to fill out the online form to request it again I get an error message - getting so many problems since the SIM arrived
