    @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

    @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.

    @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.

    @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!

  • tedstercal
    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!

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

    @ThreeUK please hear me. I called your customer service coz I have been receiving 2-3 mbps. This is far what u promise 25-35. I never had this speed. They told me to use the chat options rather than call. Still no answer. I queue on your store for almost 2 hours to solve this but

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

    @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

    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

    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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @ThreeUKSupport That's what I've had to do...i don't want no nonsense once I take over or I will hang up and take the @Ofcom route. I think to make it even easier is that there is an attachment on John's file that there is only one thing we need and that is cancellation of the contract.

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

    @ThreeUKSupport No...and it looks an impossible task to get his refund he is rightly owed. The Indian advised my Godfather he should claim the 2 month payments for the service he never had back from his bank...or credit someone else's 3 account for John to get the fefund from them.

    @ThreeUK service is appalling like.... i ring you up told to i have to go 20 mile to the nearest shop. Get there and your systems are down. Waste of journey and time

    @ThreeUK how do I make a complaint, your 3+ is, again, not letting me in or allowing me to change the password

  • It_A_Me_DeDe
    Dlyan (@It_A_Me_DeDe) reported

    All I’ve wanted to do today after I got off work is play the new Fortnite season but I can’t because Three UK are the most incompetent ***** known to man why am I getting 400 KBPS for 3rd time this week and it’s only Thursday you ***** sort you **** out @ThreeUK

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported

    @lawrencenewport are you sure it’s the signal? My experience in London (on @ThreeUK) is that I have a full 4G or 5G signal yet am unable to access anything. And it varies by time of day. eg early morning on Upper St Martin’s lane in Covent Garden it’s fine. Lunchtime? Forget it. So I’m guessing the cell is overloaded or the backhaul is saturated. Either way there’s no problem with “signal”. It’s that they’re giving me basically zero bandwidth.

  • BARFJAMiN

    congrats to @threeuk for finally working out how to send an emergency alert, ten minutes after every other network, then sending it again two minutes later to be sure. it’s a start, lads. might be funny to hear of nuclear apocalypse ten minutes after i’ve already been vaporised

  • CharlieMansfi17
    Charlie Halstead (@CharlieMansfi17) reported

    @coveragechecker @AndyUK_52 @ThreeUK It’s just ridiculous. It shouldn’t be about pairing flagship phones with flagship plans. If a phone supports the network’s full capabilities, then every customer on that network—whether they’re on pay as you go or pay monthly—should have equal access to the same 5G service.

  • SMARTYMobileUK
    SMARTY (@SMARTYMobileUK) reported

    @SOAMER @ThreeUK We're really sorry to hear this. There could be a few different reasons why you're experiencing Slow speeds. Please do get in touch with our team, so we can take a closer look and help sort things out.

    @ThreeUK what a terrible service. The WiFi isnt working for more than a week now in Bermondsey area and you dont even have the decency to reach out with the details of by when the service will be back to normal. You dont even have a functioning Call Center.

  • Alisonc89529131

    @ThreeUK bought 4 £15 data packs in store for hol in USA, your colleague says they start today although they are still sealed. I don’t need them for another 2wks and need them to last longer than 30days from today. Any other year I was told they didn’t start until inserted! Help

  • HavocAgain
    Alex Havoc (@HavocAgain) reported

    It's only fair that I say thanks to @ThreeUKSupport for getting service in Worcester back to something like normal(ish) after nearly a week of disruption. Although it would have been nice to have some form of communication about what was happening and why. @tomcollinsworcs

  • neilstratford
    Neil Stratford (@neilstratford) reported

    @VodafoneUK Why has your network become useless in most of Norfolk? 3G turned off without being replaced. Now @ThreeUK is also just as bad since you took over. Phantom signal that just doesn’t work for anything other than 2G calls. @Ofcom need to investigate.
