    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

    @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 👍🏼

    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.

    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 ..

    @TheAleTrail @ThreeUKSupport Had the same issues in London too 😩

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

    @ThreeUKSupport He doesn't want to talk to any Indian Call centre worker. All he wants is to cancel...understand the circumstances I think you should be letting him cancel and get a full refund before it escalates... How bad will yous look if John falls really ill and ends up in hospital.

  • Icypixel
    Tom (@Icypixel) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I've been traveling to Newcastle for work over the last 12 or so months and the signal in the centre of Newcastle has been constantly poor, slow/non existent mobile internet. Any plans to upgrade the signal in Newcastle? (& Leeds city whilst we're here)

  • 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

    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.

  • HesslewoodPaul
    Paul Hesslewood (@HesslewoodPaul) reported from Dunston, England

    @ThreeUKSupport I’ve had no data since getting back to the North East today is there an issue with 3/4G

  • _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

  • ShxdowHerondale
    Rachel Eleanore Wright (@ShxdowHerondale) reported from Seaton Delaval, England

    @ThreeUK I'm not happy with the connection service around Northumberland area, my 4G won't seem to work! U better start getting your sh!t together otherwise I'm cancelling my bills with you.. this is your FINAL Warning

  • stobbsmeister
    Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • 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.

    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.....

  • 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 😡

  • Funstie

    @ThreeUK 3G not working in Newcastle!

  • tvgenius05
    Jonathan Lansana (@tvgenius05) reported from Morpeth, England

    @ThreeUKSupport the Emergency Alert did not go off on my phone. Checked and alert is active in my settings getting all other notifications through as well so signals fine.

  • 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.

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

    @ThreeUK the complaint was made...and surprise surprise no reply. Your Indian call centre workers were not at all helpful passing us from pillow to post.. they actually made things worse @ThreeUKSupport links they sent never worked. It's been a total shambolic joke. #threeuk

  • 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

    JaxRalph1992 (@JaxRalph1992) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport ever since you partner up with Vodafone my 5G & signal has been horrendous roll on September and I am gone. I’ve been with you guys for 14 years.

    Olanozun Raiwe (@olanozun) reported

    @ThreeUK can you please explain why non of your sales agent can provide the terms and conditions for a service and the cancellation team blatantly refused to speak with me unless I agree to pay the cancellation fee😡

  • matthayesthfc
    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!

  • durgut_arda1
    ARDA BATIKAN DURGUT (@durgut_arda1) reported

    I've been using @ThreeUK for a long time and was usually happy with it, but for the last two days the internet has been incredibly bad... It's almost completely unresponsive. It's really disappointing that it's this bad in London. @ThreeUKSupport
