    @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)

  • DavidBeattie86 David (@DavidBeattie86) reported from South Shields, England

    Anytime I’m in Newcastle City Centre on a match day I cannot get any signal even though it says I have 5G. @ThreeUK are one of the worst networks.

  • 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 ..

  • 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?

  • bruceywells ✌Bruce Wells⚽ (@bruceywells) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @ThreeUKSupport why is my phone signal so bad today all of a sudden? Please help

    @ThreeUK I wish to cancel my home broadband with immediate effect. #threeuk

  • 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

  • basherdrummer 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

    @ThreeUKSupport hi, need to speak to someone re mobile WiFi that’s not working. Tried the number on website, just cuts off

  • 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.
